Best Music for me

Lift the lamp to light the way When shadows fall Cloak of night conceal the day Another world come to life And dark dread Inhabit the night

Here she comes in the April sun In her dungarees and she's up for fun Smiling like she's a crazy girl And she makes a face like she owns the place And she does We indulge ourselves in creating A neck of beauty and circumstance Not to mention…

Jonathan Thomas preaches on Faith Is Favour

A Prog Rock instrumental with guitar and keyboard melodies and solos. Three parts to this song. Depicting peace and joy on The Path of Light. A cross between Yes and jam band music. Randal Pflum, all instruments except drums.

Instrumental Electric Guitar piece. Not shred. Melodic with harmonized guitars. Similiar to a slow Joe Satriani ballad. All instruments, Randal Pflum except drums. Dedicated to The Creator and Giver of Life.

A collaboration between me, Randal Pflum and Dayton Neely. Comparisons made by reviewers on Garageband.com to Rush, King Crimson, Yes and even Mike Oldfield, you will have to listen to the whole thing to hear the last one.

The acoustic version in rough of Often hide with part of a song written back when I was putting my mind back together, it goes as a pair with Hammers. Sorry for the glitches, the MAC chirped in a battery warning during the recording, I would avoid…

Just a rough sketch, but I wanted to get it out there. It's still taking shape, but I like the atmosphere. Goes as a pair with Shine, together I find them very relaxing.

This week comes partially from the Wychwood music festival at Cheltenham Racecourse, where Rob and Steve meet an assortment of celebrities. There's more Stalgia and Stevie Listings pops in again, plus the names of this year's Big Brother housemates…

Another experiment. Today Eos was released. In trying it out, I found 7 random synth clips in my library (not entirely random but they might as well have been). These are fed for somewhat random durations and order through 4 Eos reverbs in…

Quintet L'homme armé takes as its touchstone the eponymous 15th cent. melody. The melody is subjected to a series of transformations so drastic as to render it completely unrecognizable in its new fragmented and atonal context. This transformed…

A 3/4 excursion into the melodic and thematic. Don't let the title throw you off; its usage implies escape from the oppressors, not aeronautical pursuits.

Vocal piece complete with fake accents!

It had been a semi serious piano piece for many years, but then I recorded it for a class project and started ad-libbing vocals. And it turned into the goofiness you hear in the second part.

Written for FAWM

I've officially run out of ideas. My brain has been nuked by the tax monster.

Another silly vocal track.

I am toast and you are bread

I had a bad cold for a month and a half. It inspired the title and the (unpublished) lyrics.

Written for FAWM

My attempt at writing actual ambient music. The jury's still out on whether there's enough variance to keep the piece going.

Written for FAWM.

I play piano. I don't play piano well.

Welcome to hail mary pass #1. There are finished lyrics, but I hit a brick wall trying to pick instruments. Knowing that my time the next day would be severely limited, I decided to go for my so-called hail mary pass in order to get the song…

I still want to rerecord the vocal for this one, but haven't gotten around to it.

A song about reviewing the year behind and looking forward to the naughtiness of the year ahead.
