This is the instrumental version of what later became Now I Can Breathe. You should look at that one for a description of how it came to be.

However, there is one thing I would like to mention here. I used a lot of parameter modulation on several instrument sounds. What that means is, automated cyclic changes in various settings. One example:

Some instrument sounds drift from left to right and back with the beat. The EQ of some instruments changes at the same speed as they drift from left to right. This was meant to give the effect of swirling around your head if you listen on headphones.
