It sounds pretty good slowed down, although rather bare. I could see a nice remix coming out of that.

I can think of tracks a hundred times barer than that, for ambient that has quite a lot going on. 
Still great music though. The guy who made it does some pretty badass other stuff as well.

Check out: "Theme for Something". Great crescendo.

Perhaps the entire song was, in itself, a "point" of interest.
I enjoyed what I heard of the track. Fills a wonderful niche for background noise and a wonderful job at being a relaxing soundtrack. Some sounds are a little too piercing for me, otherwise I'd recommend it to fall asleep to.

But we ar talking about the musical qualities of this edit. Also I think many songs would sound similar to this at 1/8 speed.

well, you know how the original song is. this version sounds really different from it.
I just said subliminal messaging because the lyrics can't be hear in this speed, which gives me some mysterious feelings.
nonetheless it's epic.

Then you know you don't listen to this stuff actively. However putting it in the background ambient while working may work for some people.
