Whelve presents "sweven", a cinematic ambient mix,
designed to be your soundtrack when studying, relaxing or working.
Ambient music is a genre of music that emphasizes tone and atmosphere over traditional musical structure or rhythm.
A form of instrumental music, it may lack net composition, beat, or structured melody.
It uses textural layers of sound which can reward both passive and active listening and encourage a sense of calm or contemplation.
The genre is said to evoke an "atmospheric", "visual", or "unobtrusive" quality.
Nature soundscapes may be included, and the sounds of acoustic instruments such as the piano, strings and flute may be emulated through a synthesizer.
Due to its relatively open style, ambient music often takes influences from many other genres,
ranging from classical, avant-garde music, folk, jazz, and world music, amongst others.
It's non intrusive easy listening atmosphere makes it the perfect soundtrack for studying, working, sleeping or meditation.
I hope you'll enjoy sweven, our first ever mixtape on this channel.
It includes some of my favourite cinematic ambient tracks.
