From 2012 made of sounds found all around. Industrial fan, dumpster closing, door closing, car gas tank closing, a speak and spell, a water drop. All of these were tweaked in Acid Pro I think to make this ambient, film noir, horror movie piece.
Play it loud where you can dance!
Boom Boom Girl (c) Nick Torres 9/25/25
She struts in with a kick
A snap
A spin
Eyes like fire
You know she always wins
Boom-boom girl
Got the whole world spinnin'
She’s got that boom-boom
Shakin…

Only In My Dreams (DRAFT) - (C) Nick Torres 9-15-25
Only in my dreams
You’re calling out my name
Running in the moonlight
Hear your laughter in the rain
Only in my dreams
I hold you in my arms
Our hearts beat like lover’s drums…

This song was a favorite of a dear friend we lost a year ago. It felt like a good song to practice the piano. This was the first try -- not that it was good, but it just kept getting worse.
The vocals sound distant because they are... the microphone…
this is a new song not much to it , all instruments played by myself , drums , programmed ,by myself, vocals and backing vocals by myself, thanks for your time ,cheers tony cee
Wow, I recorded something very similar a while back called “don’t sleep in the subway” Made with all random sounds, a car door, industrial fan, a dumpster closing, a speaker and spell. I’ll have to see if I can find it.
There's a story behind this that's uninteresting to anyone but me. A short version is that my old, broken guitar (made semi-immortal with duct tape and instrumental willpower) needed to play this Dylan song before it is laid to rest.

Stunningly good and heartfelt. Swordfishtrombones vibe!
Were you the singer for The Faces in 1969? Nice song, excellent vocals

Just browsing and this one came up, it's like if the Cranberries and B52's took a trip to the 60's and took a trip
I wouldn't have been surprised if Neil Young's voice came on after the intro, but then again I really like Tom Waits. I feel your pain...
Nice work
Really nice acoustic work, and this is supposed to be a compliment, but your voice is perfect for Dylan.
