The use of a placid, pastoral yet futuristic imagery in seeming 16-bit graphics, a.MIDI’s visualizer pairs well with the saturated synth melodies and cascading twinkles of tone and sweeps of harmonic lines of the song “nighttime on earth.” We see a figure in what looks to be a space faring suit looking into the galactic core spread across the night sky. The melody lilts into ascending figures and seems to trace both the breezes we see moving the grass in the foreground as well as the grand mystery of deep space before us. Mixing the natural landscape with that more otherworldly the visualizer matches the song in its fantasy story resonance of New Age ambient uplift and the sense of wonder of the more benevolently Utopian science fiction of new worlds to meet and explore free of the dystopia of the world we seem to be living in every day. The electronic music and its detailed composition is a bit like the best video game music like that for Metroid or Final Fantasy but crafted for a refreshing repose.
