Good recording Sean. Nice work on the flute. My golden ears tell me that it's a Yamaha. (I'm joking) Don't worry about getting assistance from computers and samplers. Wendy Carlos and Tomita used all the tools available at the time. You can too.
I think you have definitely united disparate musical features within a shared language as opposed to the polystylism of earlier progressive rock!! Polystylism is not good for the environment.
