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!

wowieee,,, a very fine piece,, the play is quite nice/rich magical in it's ability to transport.... nicely done i will look for you at rpm

ps,, i ment West Cornwall not abbey

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

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

fun piece

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

very nice,, if i could not play the piano (when i grow up) i would like to be a percussionist,, you make it sound soooo good

aaaah improv the freedom to be,, to play, to explore,,, this is a very beautiful journey/study into one of the many musical side streets,,, very fine

very nice, and yes i think it has that bygone era feel/style,, fun piece

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..

interesting sound

a very expansive sound,,

dancing, singing,,, the wind with a smile on it's face as it listens at the door,,, with this and many of your tunes ,, you bring a magic, to the air, well played

im enjoying wondering around through your library,, very nice music indeed!!! picturesque, and flowing

very nicely done!

Thanks for the comment, i am fixing that now, with a reissue , richard
