This is the song I have whined about in my blog and had to force myself to hoist it up the long winding stairs to Mixsposure. I guess we all have a song we are not 100% happy with, and The Betrayal has had a horrible start out of the box and probably needs a little TLC.
It's a track that has been difficult due to it's nature, a very personal piece for me to do; dragging up old memories just to see if some of what came through would rub off on the music. It's murky, dark, muddy and a little uncomfortable, or you may just find it noise.
As usual your generous comments are more than welcome

This has a real mood of ominous intent, which gets deeper as the piece moves on. You allow this one to get into your head and away you go. nice work

The Betrayal... another great ambient piece by Idiom. for me, this is a journey into the mind, and then out again. very interesting and captivating. building ever so patiently. cool stuff.

The soundscape in very clever and neat. Like those haunting movies or shooting games, this should be bundled together, it should bring out the most horrific mood of the listensers. This is what good music is all about - mood effectiveness. If you will to add more ghostly voice over or eerie sound, I think this should be put up on the Halloween request song board.
With million of love from Singapore.

man low down heartbeat thumping.. darkly pumping.. you have got us waiting for something.. we are a bit weary cause this sounds scary..
it has lots of industrial fixtures.. now a symphony of steaming pipes.. then out into the night air with frogs calling.. this is a night piece..
dark.. intense.. you have such a musical way of turning sounds into music.. i wonder what happened after that?.. suspenseful bro..

I`m nearly always happy to listen to ambient music and I`m more than happy listening to this one..Ohhhhh, ohhh, I LOVE that deep, heartbeat of a bass/drum?...Wonderful and it creates just the right ammount of tension..This is a really cool, interesting piece of music...There was a time when I`d have loved to sing to a piece like this...Really like it.

Some Uber cool shifting of musical shapes going on here. The mind of the listener is gently drawn into this composition by natural curiosity. This is like a bar of choclate that is never ending.. The level of musicianship and production values are well beyond the top drawer. Its deep and dark.. but at the same time very comforting..
Indeed a great work of musical art

I was hearing the hymns of armies in the background preparing for battle, I see fly-bys over fires surrounded by men sharpening their weapons. I envision a leader kneeling before his god for support. Sometimes things that aren't obvious in music make for the best head cinema. Great concept, theres room for some subtle adds. I enjoyed thinking about it, its the type of thing I like working on.

Great intro here IDIOM
This is soundtrack material. What a atmosphere You created here ! Awesome.
I could verywell picture this song as background music for Resident Evil or F.E.A.R. game.

This included a trip of six months to the perfectly flat state of Kansas where music inspiration began to roll back into the frustrated brain cells.<br />It was also in Kansas I began hearing of other forms of music such as Ambient which, until then, I had associated with drugged up hippies and Yoga fanatics. I was hooked.<br /><br />Borrowing a friends FL Studio six months ago the urge to create the sounds I had heard, plus the accumulative experience of life gained pushed me to make music again, and after sifting through the terrible to find the reasonable here are my efforts. The dreams of albums and fame; the hunt for glory and popularity that engulfed me all those years ago had been replaced by the one thing I had lost: Passion.<br /><br />Enjoy the music, feel free to disect as I take every comment as educatiion not critisism. <br /><br />If you would like to more either post me a private message or drop a line to <strong>idiommusic@gmx.com</strong>.<br /><br />Also don't forget to tread on down to the Ambient Genre Spotlight pages <span style="color: #ffff00;">HERE</span><br />
