Thank you for your encouragement, Colleen and fairynuff. It truly is appreciated. You know, i kinda just felt that improv couldn't be improved upon so i just kinda left it as is. (It's about two years old at this point.) I just really like that mix of tones / preset patches. But thanks to both your comments i should probably figure out those melodies and maybe add some piano noodling tweaks of 'em (or something. I suspect it's a lot of Gm, Cm D major throughout.)

Like the tone of this.... Movie soundtrack in the making

Thank for the kind words, Sha-Pink -- and the lyrics to "Saturnalia" as well! :) My piece was just a piano improvisation but it was performed on an Alesis Fusion 8HD synthesizer, so it wasn't *actually* a piano. ;-)

Did you play or sequence the piano on this? Beautiful piece of music. Saturnalia... we have the lyrics up here http://www.sha-pink.com/music/artparty/sng10_Saturnalia.html. Thanks!

Thank you, Colleen. ^_^ Glad you enjoy it!

Really beautifu, rich, full of emotion!

Thank you for your kind words, fairynuff! Much appreciated! Yeah, it was an improv'd. Do you also find it difficult to objectively judge your own material, too? Had forgotten all about this one until my girlfriend told me "I really like #22 on that CD you gave me..." Ever since her comment i pretty much post this one everywhere. I am so glad that others enjoy it as well. ^_^

Great job, Colleen! Really enjoyed this one. Thank you for sharing it with us! :)

Thank you for your kind comment, Bethan.

I'm not usually into four-on-the-floor kinda EDM/dance numbers, but something about your track really appeals to me. The different textures/sounds are a welcome change from the usual stuff i, well.. tend to avoid. ;-) Thank you for posting it, doktordoktor. I'm really enjoying it! ^_^

Really enjoying this one (now on my third listen)! Thank you kindly for sharing it with us, Igor. :)

Thanks for posting this, Colleen. It is very relaxing and "centering". ^_^

Thank you for posting yet another great one, Igor. Always a pleasure listening to these! ^_^

Nice song, Colleen! Thank you for taking the time to (re-?)record it and post it. :) If you don't mind my saying so, I kinda thought the lyric "Old fools cut my soul like a knife" might sound better -- maybe -- as "Old souls cut this fool like a knife." But i don't really know the story behind how you came to write each of these lines. Moreover, i kinda felt maybe more of the lines could do that sort of switcheroo with the meaning/intent throughout the song, but just didn't feel comfortable re-writing someone else's heartfelt lyrics, LOL !! Hope you don't take that notion the wrong way; i meant it with the best of intentions. (Like a lot of song lyrics they can at first appear rather plain and lifeless on a stark, silent page -- but once the music started i was pleasantly surprised by how well it all played out! Heh, heh.. Then again, i *always* enjoy hearing your voice!! :-)

Really loving this one, Colleen! It has a real radio-friendly sound. Happy New Year to you. :)

Really like the sound you get there at that studio. This sounds swell! Nice song, Colleen!

Really enjoying the nice, peaceful feeling of this one, Colleen! Love the slide guitar as well. :)

Thank you for another great listening experience, Igor. :) I like that mature sense of "resolute longing" that i hear in some of your tracks. (Not that i don't like the others as well! ;-)

I love the way you tweaked it so Yeats rhymes with peat. ;-) Love the imagery throughout! Just the brand name Guinness evokes so much on it's own, then "warriors' lament", "cry in our cups", et al. Thank you for another great listening experience, Colleen. :)

This one is really something! Thank you for sharing it, Igor. :)

Enjoyed this story and the song. Thank you for uploading it!

Really enjoying the circus-like atmosphere! ^_^

Very relaxing. Love the backwards and downwards-pitched tones!

Nice! Very relaxing. ^_^

Loving the backing vocals and piano! ^_^

Title had me intrigued, and then i was hooked right from the first few glassy, dulcet tones. The ending was interesting, too! :)

Very nice! Thank you for sharing it with us, igor. Really enjoying it! ^_^
