...something completely different.

One of my soundtrack pieces.

Nice nprime,

I especially like the accents on the percussion/cymbal (what is that BTW?).

I was waiting for a wall of sound to come in, but it never happened. This is a cool song to play guitar and improvise.

Thanks guys!

It is indeed all about the mood, and it is crying for an accompanying visual.

The percussion device is the round metal lid off a laundry hamper played with one of those drum sticks that looks like someone bound together a bunch of little bamboo skewers. I miked it with my AKG C141B-ULS, and had a lot of fun playing with the effects i could achieve by moving it closer and further and hitting it in different places.

The double reed like sound was the best thing I could find in that range of sound on the instruments available to me. The idea is that it is playing this nice lyrical line without all the percussion and drama before we get to this "scene" where things are to become a bit more frantic. The wall of sound comes next...haven't written it yet.

Elektroniqa...I think it would be more like having to judge the taste by only bing allowed to smell the coffee...LOL!

I thought it would be nice to hear something other than another pop tune, just for a change.
