This never turned out like I wanted it to be because I could not find a real drummer and bassist for it. But at least Alina was kind enough to play the lead guitar…
Thanks everybody for your comments on this and other songs of mine! It's good to know that there are a couple of folks out there who like some of my songs. :)
Feel free to criticize though! We all cannot get better without honest, constructive criticism.

Like "Wish" this song was an attempt by me to put a free-form poem by Grant…
Have you made an effort to be in touch with the film makers in your part of the world? Your state probably has a film comission. If you haven't already, I suggest you do and then begin to find about what is in the works in your state and offer to submit music to the college and independent film makers.
I had this tune in my head for years before I finally sat down and recorded a quick draft of it. I would like to record this with real instruments (acoustic guitar + electric lead guitar).
Anybody interested in helping me?
This is the new version!

Steffen, You have a really great bunch of musical friends. Are these people you have in your real world or do write with people from all over? What is your process? Do you swap .wav files?

This was one of my first compositions ever (I started writing songs in 2004/2005). I don't have the original audio seps any more, just this MP3 file, so I cannot do a decent remix. And I'm too lazy to re-do it all from scratch. :)

When I composed this little instrumental song I did not use very good sounds for it, and I did not yet know (or bother) how to edit the midi sounds to make them sound better.
This is just a quick remix using the same old sounds. I don't think…

This song was based on a free-form lyric by Grant D. McLeman from Scotland. Quite a challenge ... :)
Reg has just finished reading the Sunday Times it's quite a read and he has decided he has had enough of bad news. So he is going to try something different to try to carry on getting his kicks before the whole shit-house falls down…
Well, who do think came down the cellar last night... Yep! you guested it, Charlie Sheen, he was none too happy. He should have been if the girls with him were anything to go by. He'd come to talk to Elvis about handling the Yes men and how he…

For some reason the song does not play here, but since I already know it from Songcrafters I can honestly tell you: It IS a gem, like Bethan says. And, of course, I downloaded it to my MP3 player.
Thanks for sharing, Tharek. And sorry for your loss.

This is an absolutely beautiful song written by Jon Foreman for his side project Fiction Family and I felt like givin it a shot soo I just kinda learnt it and threw it together theres a few flubbups but they kinda workout well in the end

This track is from the 1986 Scartaglen album "The Middle Path". The first tune "Jezaig" was composed by Breton musician Gilles Le Bigot. The second tune is one of the "Cantigas de Santa Maria" and is attributed to King Alfonso X of Spain

With little chance of escape
And all you bar-stool visionaries

Wanna seat on a slow boat heading

One of my favorites. It was recorded a long long time ago while I was a freshman at Queens College, NY. If you like it, check out my page on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/Boris.Shpitalnik
Another classic recorded "back in the day" when I was just a tiny little freshman fry.. Check out my page on facebook at: http://www.facebook.com/Boris.Shpitalnik
What's rock and roll without a yee-haw or war-whoop before a solo?
This ragged piece of something or other came from a riff I had laying around for a couple of years. I pieced it together kind of last minute for RPM 2006. It's not bad, a lot…
Allelujiah-This was supposed to be a completely different song, but this one just wrote itself instead. It’s almost all first take, except for the bass, which took a while to get straight so that it wouldn’t overwhelm the song. It has this tone…
Summer Grass- I didn’t originally intend for this to be the title track, but since most, though not all, of the songs on this album sound like summer to me, I decided, why not? The guitar even sounds humid and warm, but in that nice July way…
Comments on stoman's stuff
Love this ..beautiful....excellent lyrics...love it
Another good one Steffen! Love the arrangement and the lyrics. The most Beatles sounding song I have heard of yours.

Hello, I just signed up today, and wanted to drop in and say hello to you.... This is a nice collab that I've enjoyed since I first heard it... LG
love it agree with James........perfect as it is
I can't imagine what your standards are topping out at if you apologize for this mix. This is beautiful.
oooo!
Have you made an effort to be in touch with the film makers in your part of the world? Your state probably has a film comission. If you haven't already, I suggest you do and then begin to find about what is in the works in your state and offer to submit music to the college and independent film makers.
If I can figure out how to download this track I will add rhythm guitars.
Steffen, You have a really great bunch of musical friends. Are these people you have in your real world or do write with people from all over? What is your process? Do you swap .wav files?
Kicks ass. Love it. Wish I could do stuff like this. Sooooo poppy!
Beautiful! If this was one of your first you certainly got off to a wonderful start!
Love the guitars on this track!
Love the taste of Paris here in the summer. Especially in August when it's pretty empty. A most romantically pretty track.
beautiful tune........wonderful playing.....
incredible.
A cello with this would be so nice...or a whole bed of strings to undergird that melody.
Very nice. So clear and clean. Nice voice too. I see you collaborate with other musicians. Feel free to ask me to do background vocals.
Awesome. This reminds me of something from the Ghost in the Shell soundtrack. (I really dig that soundtrack.)
Brina really has a great voice. Very well done once again, my friend!

I like when you belt it out like that! :)
Great collaboration, guys! Regards, Steffen

I wish Ali was still around at MCS. She did a great job on this song (as did all the others). I think she is pretty busy with her own band these days.

Great composition, my friend! The production sounds a bit like midi - it probably is. But still, great music!

Nice blues song. Just the right voice for it.
I agree with Bethan: Great performance. Regards, Steffen
Pretty good piano playing. I wish I could play like that. Poka, Steffen
Nice little acoustic gem. Your singing as a certain Spanish touch. Would sound great with a Spanish folk guitar style IMO.
Nice song, very well crafted.
I like the medieval folk feel. A very pretty song.
Ah, damn ... I was logged out again. ;)
It reminds me of somebody, but I cannot tell who. I can tell that it's a nice song though! :)
Dreamy. Very, very nice.
A song I have always loved. You play it very well. Downloaded! :)
Good old 70s rock - that's what your music sounds to me. Really fun to listen to.
Your singing style reminds me of John Mellencamp on "John & Diane". Good job!
I don't know if it sounds like Summer, but it sure sounds like good song to me.
