In the end, does this mean that when we are listening to and commenting on the tracks, thereby affect them, to the authors, and even to ourselves? That's what I tried to say here, probably :-)

Why Schrodinger and his cat is here?
Generally it is a thought experiment in quantum physics, the cat is taken here as an example (Erwin Schrodinger was fond of cats). The point here is that: the observer (not a person but rather the instrument) affects the experiment, even if he/she "just" watching it.
Well, where does the music, you ask. I will answer this way: a person has more than one language for two-way communication and understanding of the outside world: dance, taste, smell, music, mathematics, poetry / speech. And using them, the person goes to, and affects the outside world, even if he thinks that it is not. No one can be impartial observer.
That's the question: what about our inner world? And in general there is it?
As for this song: it will be updated soon, with chorale and radio transmissions, in two parts, as excerpts from the local long lenght album.

Lockdown:
We don't get to choose our days or chase our past
We only get the ones, we've made to cast
but there are things I'd say if I could
and If I was a better man
but under lockdown all I have...
Sweet end…
Ok, I have decided to put it here. It is a stretch containing several ideas, it falls apart here and there (especially at 3:10), but I think the atmosphere shines through.
Hope I can return to it in a couple of weeks (when my head is clear…
We went to visit my dad at his assisted living facility and they have a Yamaha Clavinova on which I improvised for a half hour to provide some entertainment. This is a ~ 3 minute excerpt from about half way through. This was recorded on my Zoom…

An old Rodeo cowboy thinking about his life, and how he'll get to the next Rodeo to maybe make some money.
I was traveling down the interstate and happened to look out my window. Just by chance this fellow in an old pickup truck passed us. In…
last eve there was a beautiful moon
dancing in a blue black sky
outside my piano room, it called to me
this tune is a one take playful moment, loosely based on the main theme from the 2nd mov of my piano sonata,,, i only toned down about…
Many nebulae form from the gravitational collapse of gas in the interstellar medium. As the material collapses under its own weight, massive stars may form in the center, and their ultraviolet radiation ionises the surrounding gas, making it visible…

I don't normally repeat myself too, but when I sat down to listen this melody first thing that came to me was peaceful elegy. Thank you Doug. I' m dreaming about to collaborate with you somehow.
Matter Of Fate- This song started as a riff I was doing while tuning my guitar. It sounded cool, so I happened to record it on a small dictation recorder I have so I wouldn’t forget it. When I listened to the riff it just screamed Sticky Fingers…

Last track for RPM 2010, and by far my favorite of the batch…
The vodka, ahhh. One of 3 that I recorded to a dimming flashlight during a power outage.
One take into the Micro BR hole with some harmony and noodle overdubs.
Vodka
I want the vodka
'Cause I know it's gonna make me play better…

But why? Anyway, an atmospheric piece, well composed and performed Igor.
Ahh! A lovely time of year and this sounds just like it. The leaves are peaking right now in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Wonderful piece of work!
Such great movement in the piece--the theme of detaching and losing oneself.
That is so lovely Igor.
In harmony with the story, perfect.
Very melancholy but tender.
The Dark Riders are near. Wish this were 10 times longer!
Just gorgeous!
Hauntingly...stellar. Beautifully recorded.
This is absolutely beautiful! w;-)
superb fingerings and ambience
really nice, light touch and phrasing,,, graceful
nicely done
Igor ... You have the touch!
such a sad sad Thursday.........lunchtimes over......back to work we go sad sullen but strangely uplifted.....
another listen for sad sad Thursday before the snow comes and everything becomes joyful for Christmas.......

Clavinova is a cool instrument w/top sound and keyb quality. I have one :-)
Here I'm agreed with Bethan.
That's good. Like it. How...now do-o-w... Here to stay.

To say "thank you" in time ... It's rarely possible, I would say.
So beautiful americana here! Like it.
