Not
really a track, but more a
mood. After a hectic week
I sat down in the studio
for some relaxation; this
simple recording was the
result. |

Just
having some fun in the
studio. Thinking about how
time keeps flowing, like
water in a mountain
stream. |

It's
been a long time since I
did any work in the
studio. This is just a fun
little track created while
hooking up the studio gear
after moving to
Michigan. |

Trying out how the new
Alesis Andromeda analog
synthesizer sits in a mix
with the other synths. For
some reason this simple
demo has received a
positive response from
several people. |

A friend asked about using
an arpeggiator to create
more complex sequences
rather than the usual
up/down patterns arps are
known for. So, I fired up
the Virus b synthesizer
and created this little
demo. There is no lead
lines, just some looping
arps and drum patterns. |

Started to work on this as
a track, but grew tired of
it. Some fun sounds are
used though, and I like
the lead line. |
