About us - The Full Story
In the late 90’s I, Michael Lanfield started DJ’ing under various aliases. I started various music projects and many websites and after many unsuccessful tries I gave up and decided to research and explorer different styles. My favourite was electronic music. In the early 2000s I discovered Brian Eno’s music, “Music for Airports” and fell in love with the sound. Soon there after, I decided to dedicate my time to listening and mixing ambient music.
In 2003, after watching many documentary films and seeing the catastrophe that humans put on the world and nature, I decided that it was time that I did something about it. I started petitions, and a forum dedicated to saving nature and animals, with moderate success. I kept learning – reading books, articles and watching documentary films. My forum "Saving Animals and Their Habitats" received over 2000 users.
In the summer of 2008 I started the project Ambient New World, dedicated to offering free legal relaxing music for download. “For such beautiful music, why should people have to pay retail? Music should be distributed freely over the internet. If people like the music send the artist or company a donation”. I decided to join my music project with the environment forum and combine the two projects into one forum. The other forum "Saving Animals and Their Habitats" (including all 2000 users) to this date is lost and gone forever.
In 2009 we joined Facebook to expand our network, organize events and teach a large number of individuals on the many issues that are hidden from the truth; by mass media, public media, governments and large multi national corporations who do not want you to know the truth. We do this in many ways; through demonstrations, benefit parties, distributing fliers, signing petitions and group discussions. The topics of main concern are on the environment, cruelty and suffering towards animals, vegetarianism and veganism, the media, multi national corporations and government. We educate people on the truth and not false information mass and public media, government and large multinational corporations are portraying.
"I am a dedicated environmentalist, conservationist, animal activist and vegan. Becoming a vegan will feed the entire world ten times over." |

Schizm - Mysterious Journey is a really great computer game.
I think it's relevant here because the soundtrack is completely ambient, and the game takes place in a really beautiful landscape on an alien world. It contains a non-violent investigative story line, breath-taking graphics and some of the hardest puzzles you'll ever find in a game.
I would like to know if anyone else in these forums knows about or has this game, or is interested.
Thanks

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizm:_Mysterious_JourneyThat is a wikipedia link to the game. Plus if you google it you can find all sorts of info and reviews about it. But good luck if you wish to buy a copy. I can't find it at any good shopping websites, and I've had my copy since it was released in 2001 (still haven't finished it yet.) I have also heard rumours that a soundtrack for the game exists, but I cannot find that anywhere either. What I can do is try and record some of the tracks from gameplay. Hmm...

Hmm... Is it that why your username is same as the game?

That's partly to do with it. Bear in mind I don't only use The Great Schizm here. It's my name on a few other online forums and things too. I named it after the game when I found it once again gathering dust on the shelf after several years of not being played. But I also used the name because I thought it sounded cool.
There was also an event in history called The Great Schism (with an s) and I think it was when there was more than one person claiming to be the Pope. I didn't know about that when I came up with the name though.
A schism is a split or a division of a group into different smaller subgroups. Christianity: you get all sorts of branches from that don't you?

I've started recording some of the music from this game now. I have had some good success. I will continue to record the music as I progress through the game.
Don't know if I should upload them here as I didn't make the music myself and I have no way of gaining permission from he who did make it.

Update: I have finally finished this game. Phew. That was tricky.
That means that I now have all the soundtrack recorded from it.
I'd still like to share it with everyone here though, but I fear it may collide with copyright rules, (post above ^) as it's not my music.
What do you think?
Of course if you do eventually hear it, it won't be the same without the game's stunning viuals. But at least you can draw your own meanings and ideas from it.
