Just a hint of the original melody, and the cascading notes in the middle, it's a different take on a classic and that's good. Thanks for not putting the rain sound fx in!
This is perfection. Thanks for sharing.
oh yea..I watched Quest For Fire again. I had forgotten most of it. I especially like the new friend they made...if ya know what I mean? Nudge nudge..wink wink. hehe. Just thinking about Rae Dawn Chong..sigh. She is the daughter of Chong of Cheech and Chong Fame.

warning!!! this is a long 10+ min instrumental
It's a piece about 4 years old that was my first attempt at using synth voices,, I am still looking for a good one,, if anyone knows.
The music itself is a tone poem, loosely dedicated to a children…
You are right on the money that I have a lot of fun coming up with my songs! Thanks for your listens and checking out my back catalog!
This song builds really nicely. It's very full and rich. I wish I could compose longer songs like this. I get tired of musical ideas really quickly and always want to move on to the next one! This would be great in a movie soundtrack. There is some slight hissing going on but nothing terribly distracting. Excellent work here!

Well, since I have not used MOTU SI I can't compare but you can since you can hear my Kontakt 4 sample set. Sonar 8.5 was / is a radical upgrade if you write more than classical music. But if one were strictly classical composition minded a better (rational!) program than Sonar to score with would make more sense to invest in than sonar 8.5 . I look forward to hearing what you are working on!

very cool and interesting piece,, i had the fortunate experience of spending 8 days in a remote and protected area 300 miles off cabo san lucas,, baja mexico,,, on all the dives i was in the water with humpback whales,,, their songs are amazing,,, mesmerizing,,, on one dive i was alone about 90 feet down on a ridge and they were so loud the water and i were vibrating!!!,,, i have to ask (though probably silly) have you seen the movie quest for fire??? if not i recommend it...on a final note i teach/practice fire by friction using indigenous stuff.. anyway thanks for the great piece... Richard
I can't even begin to imagine what it must have been like to be in the water while the whales were singing. Amazing the vibrations don't damage other animals. I have seen Quest For Fire..thanks for reminding me actually, I wanna see it again. Wasn't Darryl Hannah in that? \
And..you teach making fires? That's a different job! heh. How many different ways are there to start one?

Song #2 for the RPMC. My goal is to have 12 short tunes (1-3 minutes long), so I need to pick up the pace.
Again, quartal tuning on the top 3 unison pairs of the 12 string. I've been listening to Ralph Towner's Blue Sun, hence the title.
I posted this song a few days ago and Bethan liked the music so much she wrote her own words. Here it is, a co-write across the Atlantic.

WAITING FOR THE TIME WHEN THE SUN SHINES THROUGH

west Texas meets west abbey,,yes it's very fun, a nice colab and mix,, thanks,, just the thing to wake up to,, which is what i tryien to do just now,, though the sun isn't shinning through
Inspired by the "Metal for Life" Column in the Guitar World Feb 2012 issue, I stuck to the original etude probably only 80% or so and changed the arrangement, plus added an extra solo section in the middle.
wow!,,rather amazing, this is something i had not envisioned before,, like it very much,,you do a splendid job of hitting the right key,,, also,,, thanks for your kind words richard
No im not happy and no im not sad, no im not good but i know im not bad. No i wont go there, but no i wont stay, no im not straight but no im not gay, no need to tell me i know im not right, no happy endings and no end in sight. I got no way of…
most lovely ,,,, im not much of a singer myself, but if there are words that call to you why not give it a go,,, then we can all have 2 songs to fav...... the cadence of this is very nice and most comforting ,,, merry mid winter
This is a “cross-over” pattern. Cross-over patterns are a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with different numbers of beats/measure are played at the same tempo: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms have measures…
Started out be an innocent little jazzy study in quartal harmony, but the DL4 was still in my signal path and things went downhill from there! Another done with my beloved '58 Stratotone
A little bit of pop with a strong 80s touch (I hope).

Different recording here as the electric guitar, bass guitar were not plugged in, just recorded raw with a power mic and then EQ'ed to make it sound amped - pardon mistakes!

I found a cassette tape the other day from 1991 which turned out to be live to 2 track demos that Scartaglen did in the studio in preparation for our 3rd and (as it turned out) final album. This tune didn't make the cut for the record but I always…

I love them too, and this is a cracking cover! Wonderful piano!
Excellent! Great take on a classic!
Richard, this is such a BEAUTIFUL cover! WELL done! w;-)

Love the "New Age" instrumental style. Very pretty. johnbee
Very well done.
Aengus is all Ethno 2.
This is brilliant! Would you consider doing a collaboration sometime?
Beautifully done mate excellent piano. Top job mate.
Downloaded at 18 secs. Just like the first Doors cover I heard from you, its unique enough to almost not be a cover at all - I like that.
thank you, very nice playing

nicely rich in sound scape,,, mostly the precussive instrument family? i like the airyness of this,, (wish i knew how to spell)
interesting,, is this a standard tuning?
excellent.. agree with what Norm said,,very nice
i was interrupted, when i listened before, it is a pretty cool loop
very very fine,, leaves much to think about..
