To Neda - In Memory Composer & Pianist: Ardavan Jafaryan Lyrics & Song: Solmaz Naraghi

Looking At The Pictures On The Wall.......

It's about a waitress and a long-haul trucker. The only trucking song I ever wrote.

Second piece for RPM. This is my RPM preferred track!

My first attempt (at least in several years) to write and produce an electronic song. Perhaps it's a failure, in that I ended up mixing my guitar and bass in pretty loudly, but I'm really happy with it none-the-less. It's catchy! Please enjoy…
