The heli is cute, but I really like the music!  Who is it?  Does anyone know?

Sounds very much like something David Arkenstone would do. Don't think this is one of his since he's a little less "electronic." But if you like that, you might like Dave's work.

Give Oceanus and Stepping Stars a quick listen to get an idea of what Dave sounds like.

I didn't get a hit on either Shazam or SoundHound. I like chillout but this one's a little dark for my taste. :)

40hz is right:  it does sound a lot like David Arkenstone... ...I'm having to work from memory here, because I haven't listened to my Arkenstone CDs in 10-15 years, and they're all inaccessible in a distant storage unit right now.  But this particular song seems familiar (...it's a little hard to tell because they're all similar sounding "meandering" instrumental music without strong melody lines, and tend to blur together, at least for me :P).

If it is Arkenstone, I think it's from one of his Narada or Windham Hill releases in the early to mid-1990s, and I'm guessing maybe it's on his Chronicles compilation, or possibly his Convergence compilation with David Lanz.  (But it also might be familiar to me because (per Wikipedia) he's composed several film and video-game scores.)  If it's not him, I still think it might be a Narada or Windham Hill release from the early to mid-90s, but I can't think who the artist would be right now.
