Old music library track. I recorded this with a cheap Yamaha keyboard my step-father gave me. Wish I would have add little more to the repeat of the melody, but I think I…
Really nothing more than some voice leading practice. Unfortunately, I had no keyboard or orchestral samples when I did this, so I used Lilypond and TiMidity++ and step programmed it in a text editor. I've since bought Cubase and EastWest/QuantumLeap…

I like a bit of Mr Young and often do a few of his songs at open mike nights etc. this is one recorded as it happened onto a hand held recorder. bit rough round the edges, but so is Neil.
Well the votes are in and nobody, who has commented, seems to think I have offended against Satie with this. That's kind of cool because this really is one of my favourite pieces of music and one that I hope, one day, to be able to play myself…
Kublai Khan attacked on Fukuoka Prefecture in 1281, mobilizing 140,000 soldiers and 4,000 ships. The Japanese defenders, numbering around 40,000, were no match for the Mongols and the invasion force made it as far as Dazaifu, 15 kilometers south…
for REALZ, this is way far from being done. this is an oldie from a previous duo I was in, VC Andrews, (http://www.myspace.com/vcandrews) and i wanted to give it new life. Listen to the old version at the myspace page to hear how it's going to…

I've been working on this one little by little; now I'm at a point where I do not feel like revisiting the feeling. Moves from 3/4 to 4/4, or so I think.. kind of like a 7/4 time sig but not really. typical glu instrumentation, etc.
Everyone…
This is a real old tune. I remember about 81 or so. My brother Asa wrote it.
I felt like recording something, so this is it.
A rude kinda fun song with that cowboy stylin' :)

It didn't take me long
to find out you were wrong

Similar in feel to the other Fragile Moment track. Mostly acoustic guitars recorded sitting in my shop on the H4N and then finished up in Cubase just this morning. September 9 09. Maybe a nice one for bedtime
