2010 24 hour challenge. Record a 24 minute song in less then 24 hours.
Work has been so crazy music has been taking a back seat. I might have to try this concept again to get anything done on the creative side of things. :)
Hats off to you if you composed, performed and arranged this piece in 24 hrs!. Some transitions might be a little iffy (03:29 for instance) but the whole track is really good, and while varying a lot, it stays consistent all the way; some parts are kicking serious butt (06:10+). And the whole composition is simply excellent.
Probably one of my faves of all the pieces you've posted on here. Bravo! Fav'd & Dl'd.
THE WALK
I drove 400 miles that night
East of Dallas to Abilene
And the hopes that I held in my headlights
Were hopes like I'd never seen
She called me from work that afternoon
She said she'd be off about 2 AM
Said it would be nice…

Think but this, and all is mended,
That you have but slumber'd here
While these visions did appear."

RAGE a song by Jeff Prince
Smoke curls 'round her finger tips and rises toward the light
She crumbles up another pack and curses at the night
And that god-damned clock, Tik tok, tik tok, mocks her mournful face
From kitchen wall to kitchen…

As if I was a tree,
And would stand in the woods,
Taking the rain and the snow.
As if I was a tree,
Standing in the field,
Looking at the eternal movement of the clouds.

well this is a bit awkward, but i have been chatting with Nosda Cariad about the various plus and minus of sound settings ie reverb,,, sometimes i feel like i have used too much, as sort of a crutch. in this version the reverb has been toned down…

Close enough, she's more of a little imp than a fairy :)
Utterly delightful - with traces of wickedness! Sounds like a bad fairy getting ready for a hot date.
Uh, oh it went off, start again ..... Wow maid, well played!
Oh, nicely done!
Ha ha! I've known a few who were definitely not! :D
Well, women are from Venus they say! Ha ha!
Reaaly enjoyable. I loved the strings dictating the rhythm in the background. Beautifully played.
Thank you :)
great keywork
Beautiful piece, love how it develops
Thanks Willie.

Fav'd from the start. A beauty!

Many thanks to everyone; it's always easier to create something good, when the original already is brilliant.
Welcome back, richard. And again, many thanks for your kind words. And yes, you are right about the strings/piano/percs blend.
...sometimes does run smooth...
Nicely disturbing.
Perfect for a Sat' afternoon, after the grocery rush. "A national Acrobat" kicks ass!
Actually the breakdown is a piano, a synth-piano, music box, 2 guits, drums and an organ.
Experimenting's always fun! And a good way to broaden our vision.
That previous comment was mine; forgot to log in before posting, sorry for that.
Excellent tune! Fav'd and DL'd And no, unfortunately they're no real violins
Thanks for feeding my head. Totally trippy.
Really nice piece, once again. But too short.
Quite a trip! Dub away, dub away :)
Fits perfectly the description. Or is it the other way around...
Very soundrack-ish, well done!
Excellent!
Solo pieces are a lot harder than full orchestra, in many ways indeed. But this sounds very nice.
Very nice composition indeed.
