Michelangelo’s statue of Moses in the Church of San Pietro in Vincoli, Rome, is one of the most familiar masterpieces in the world. Horns the sculptor included on Moses' head are the result of a mistranslation of the Hebrew Bible into the Latin Vulgate Bible with which he was familiar. The Hebrew word taken from Exodus means either a "horn" or an "irradiation." Experts at the Archaeological Institute of America show that the term was used when Moses "returned to his people after seeing as much of the Glory of the Lord as human eye could stand," and his face "reflected radiance." In early Jewish art, moreover, Moses is often "shown with rays coming out of his head."
by gosh, is...is this a real piano?
beautiful sound. slightly out of tune or something, it's eerie, nostalgic and dangerously large.
keep on doing what you're doing.
This is a solo piano piece performed on a M-Audio 88es driving pianoteq which was re-tuned to Gene Ward Smith's 17 per octave equal beating dwarf(<17 27 40|). The piece was originally recorded in pianoteq using the standalone mode and then…

The pages of the book were leaking into the dream
Wading through waters of time, an unconscious stream
Eyes begin to flicker, getting heavier with sleep
Takes you by force into the deep
Cobras hood like an open sail

Damn! Feels good to hit the Upload button again!
Completed RPM 17. this is the last track!!. the album is my first run through with logic pro ( dumping pro tools and the monthly subscription fee)
I feel great playing again.. been so long…
I wrote this song about 2 years ago and shared it here on Alonetone back then. I decided to do a studio recording of it recently. With the help of the team at F5 Soundhouse here in Minneapolis we've created this updated version. I hope you enjoy…
Here's the second song I recently decided to do with a studio recording from one I wrote and posted here a while ago as a purely vocal version. It's one of my favorites.... I hope you'll enjoy it too
Singing In The Silence

I decided to keep working on this one a bit on the "keep messing with it" program.... added some backing vocals and some piano.... kind of like where its heading after the one take wonder before... Any other suggestions are very welcome…

So everybody’s spoken

so lets get going while the the sun…
Putting my own stank on a cover from another mother. Jeff is brilliant and so is Stevie Wonder who wrote and George Martin who produced Jeff's Grammy winning version. What Greatness!
For some reason i jumped straight in, i was rushing it as time is short but why ??? your guess is as good as mine. Anyway it was a lot of fun Hope you enjoy…….

Mindbending.
Man this is genius! Wow the atmosphere and all the other elements are are blended in perfectly with the bile lyrics! Kudos!
