Wouldn't say meditative. The spoken word sound is too interruptive and

distracting for that. Also, the repetitive "1950's UFO sound effect"

sounds don't seem to fit that idea, either.
I do wonder what it might be like listening to a full Ambisonic version

of it, on a real Ambisonic sound rig.

Thanks for the OGG file, I wouldn't have listened again if I'd had to do

another 700MB download.

It sounds like a soundtrack for a bad 1970's psychedelic/art film.
More interesting than the first version of it, but I think I've heard

enough to decide that ambient-psy-trance isn't for me.
