Sometimes you just feel like sitting down at your electric piano, plugging in that wah-wah pedal, and knocking out a happy little E-tune: [mp3 removed].
This one is great! Reminds me a bit of Max Tundra or Nathan Michel in it's prog-showtune melodic meanderings. I sort of don't want it to end - what about a 60 minute theme and variation (and variation and variation ...) version?
Thanks, this was originally 4.5 minutes and I deliberately cut it to two, because it just repeated once through (and then some), as opposed to exploring more combinations. I do plan to run more variations, and add more voices and melodic fragments. Maybe even some other instruments. It's tricky writing multiple parts that sound good together, though. I threw out a lot of combos that hit my ear wrong.
I'll check out Max Tundra and Nathan Michel--sounds like the Tigerbeat6 label is out ahead on this kind of stuff. From the googlable reviews the things those two musicians are compared to are mostly things I like.
