I am not a gamer, so I encountered Christopher Tin's Civ IV soundtrack in an audio Humble Bundle, of all things.

It's seriously among my all-time favorite albums.

Tin followed that project with the phenomenal "The Drop that Contained the Sea", another song cycle that's every bit as incredible.

His

100% agree "The Drop that Contained the Sea" is a masterpiece - as you say phenomenal. These should be widely known and embraced

Y'all weren't kidding. After the first full track I knew I couldn't treat it like background music. I just gave the album an uninterrupted listen this morning.

I had an outpouring of emotion. Incredibly moving.

Thank you both for sharing.

It is filled with meaning and evokes so many feelings - so glad you enjoyed it.
