Composer Christy Carew uses long, soft, somber tones, accented with occasional chimes, to create in this soundscape the sense of a vast icy or snowy wilderness. The piece succeeds masterfully, but don’t listen to it too long at one sitting, or it might lull you to sleep. I would definitely recommend it for use at the gaming table during a period of exploration in (ant)arctic or similar climes, but it really is so lovely and peaceful that I would recommend small doses. You might be better off using this particular soundscape for meditation or relaxation than for gaming.
