Just a note to all my fellow AToners,, back up, back up,, back up,, i just spent 5 days working with a down pc, i did have everything backed up but it was a bit scary,, and if anyone has issues with sonar and motu products,,i might have some hard earned help if you ever need it,, take care all and BACK UP everyday R

As for the song icon for Don't Look Down - a friend made it for me and I am not sure what he used. Subway is a good bet.

Well, I make no claim to the authenticity of Ethno 2 samples - though assuming they are top notch is probably a safe bet. I just released a revised version to my private mailing list and here are the instruments: This piece is a quasi-middle eastern section using the celtic 12, E, and D guitars and the lead Electric Bouzouki plus acoustic bass in Zurna tuning and the percussion includes Timbales, gong, Bendir, Daires, Darbuka, Tamborin, and Sistres.

Loved this. Thanks for the trip. Also thanks for the comment on Call Me Crazy. I've had alot of computer issues the last few weeks and haven't been able to be part of this wonderful music community. Glad to have a moment to enjoy it. You're quite the composer, sir. Would love to collaborate on something sometime, if that would interest you. I don't just do country, by the way.

A lovely performance Richard.

Beautiful piano playing! Those piano notes definitely sound like rain drops!

beautiful first movement of your piano sonata Richard

Stunningly beautiful!! Especially that middle section

Awesome.

Breath-taking!

Beautiful Richard very nicely played, really cool.

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! w;-)

Beautiful!! In composition and execution.

...VERY nice work here. Thanks for taking the time to listen!

...beautiful.

More Doors! *Excellent*

The wind of perfection blows in your direction Richard. This is real graceful.

very pleasant composition, and a great orchestation. although choirs might lack a bit of depth, mostly in the graves, there is really nothing wrong with those you've used..

Try Soundsonline.com with Quantum Leap East West Programs, they will blow your mind. They are mostly orchestral stuff, and realistic instruments outside synth, but i think there are plenty of synth things on the same site. if i did catch your question correctly hopefully i answered that same question.

Totally gorgeous!

a most romantic piece,,,most excellent!!!

woooooowoooo, wait on a mooooooment,, what a coool sound here,,,,,,im a dancing in my chair,, and my pup is looking up at me from the floor and thinking ,,, what the #@#^*!@@ is that old guy doing,,,, but it's ok he love to boogie toooo,,, boogie on reg!!!

yes,,, a rubic cube of sound,,,cool

very cool,, lots of high energy here!! im interested in how you chose the title r

wooooooow,,, lots of sizzle here,,,, a most excellent piece,,,r (and though i faved this AT will not take it) oh well,,, this is really great!! r

pretty cool,, reminds me a bit of Vince G. (the fellow who did cast your fate to the wind and the Charlie Brown sound tracks) there's a nice whole feeling to this r

lovely,, Bach est in feeling at moments,, a lovely little venture, lovely play,, indeed! r

interesting, is this music/politics/art... all three i think! a cool mix of creativity,, and on a personal note i myself have two arms,,and i hope the let me keep them r,, at the end and all again i say quite interesting r

quite a strong sentiment piece of music

very cool,, your sound/notes are rich and full, it all blends together very well,, seems like a very late night time, with the lights down low type of piece to me,,,

love it! your style/music is addictive,,,poetry dancing upon musical notes,, nicely done r

cool piece, i agree with Djork, sound good without words,

what a fun run,,,, LJ your harmonies are very cool,,, most cool

wow,, like the thinking/thought behind this,, very evocative

excellent,, well if your a tree ok,,, but perhaps your a tree near the circus,, there's something so carnival about this,, love it r

wow, you've got a lot going on here,, and it all blends together sooo well,, excellent! a killer of a song, so to speak,,,,

interesting,, reminds me a bit of mid evil in tone

love it!!! bit of a magical feel, as this rolls over the headphones into the ears and on to the heart on a late friday eve,, the ending seems a bit abrupt,,, yes..no... planned,,perhaps i just a bit too old to get it? lovely piece r

wow,,, what a wonderful piece,, you play is wonderful (as of course it always is) but this time it's your storyline,,, that blows me away,,, it's ,,, hard to say,,, it's a poem for sure,,, a story/mini epic set to music, and then given life by your voice and your strings,,, really fine r

most beautiful,, the play is crisp clear and really personal,, wonderful, your vocals are rich, and the harmony is icing on the cake!!
