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!

Kind of reminds me of the way ripples move out from a stone dropped in water,,very nice

Very Smooth, great late night listening, (or any time for that matter)turn the lights down low, sit back and relax,, ps where was this live recording done?

Nice mellow track, what instrument is that?

Great guitar, your voice matches up well with the music, carnival ending is nice

Great song, soft rock,,, your guitar playing is very fine,,,question is there a drop out about 2 min into the piece,, could just be my speakers,, their not very good...nice work

Very nice,, with my sound/speakers it's hard for me to clearly hear the vocals,, but the music is well played and very interesting,

Pure Magic....like most good instrumentals,, they begin with a good simple main theme, and then follow through with interesting variations

and about 5 min into the piece it goes rock,, what more can you ask!!!

very evocative, soulful, bluesy, and a little jazzy like a liquid poem

No. 3 is a sweet,thoughtful piece

Interesting,,,sweet and pastoral

another fun song-- nice instrumental tracks,, my only comment is that the vocal and instrumental seem to be just about the same volume level,, meaning each seems to be competing with each other without either one taking the lead,,

"upbeat pop-rock" to be sure,, earworm is a fun little tune that just boars into you.... though the volume seem a little low to me -- compared to other music on the site

Good rock song, music is well crafted, and work well with vocals, a fun upbeat song

ditto for this one also

Oosterzee -- nice tune, great musicianship ie playing and arrangement
