Song information
Don’t know how many of you have been paying attention of late to the Sun’s behavior. It’s been pretty wild and intense!

Back in 2004, when I first started working in Garage Band, I recorded a lot of instrumentals using loops, samples, and keyboards. This is one of approx. 45 pieces I composed at that time.

It seems fitting to post it now…

Be well all!

What a surprise Mike. We are not used to this kind of piece from you. You show us your very wide musical talents. I like the little asian touch you put in this one. Another great one Mike.

Interesting one Mike. This one could have been the sound track from an acid trip. IMHO...ha
The possibilities are endless with gadgetry .

Yes the Sun is at a very active 11 year cycle at the moment. I've been studying the spots and keeping a record of spot sizes etc.
There is plenty of Aurora activity around the world to show something is happening with our Star.
Anyway, this is a awesome piece love the intro! And Tom has done a splendid mix too.

Thanks Dave! The Vangelis comparison is interesting. Although I've heard of him, I've never heard anything by him...

Don't know why I went "Oriental" on the keys. This tune is 20 years old. Can't remember. LOL...
It does seem to work though. Glad you like it my friend!

"Climate change." Yes... the Sun has a series of cycles that drastically affect climate here on earth (as well as on the other planets in our solar system). The Heliosphere extends well beyond Pluto after all. "Human caused climate change" is a Globalist myth. Most we can do is make it a tiny bit worse or a tiny bit better...

Thanks Thierry!
Like I explained in the notes, in my first two years of recording I put together quite a few pieces using loops and samples, augmented here and there with a little keyboard work. Near the end of that period I bought a guitar and began working it in. It's how I taught myself song composition. I have two full CDs of this kind of stuff. Some of it's not bad. Some of it has me scratching my head saying: "What ever was I thinking"! Lol...

Hey Don, I guess all the LSD I imbibed in my youth payed off after all!

You have a great job Gerald. Glad you like what I tried to do here.
The piece is 20 years old, so it was done WAY before I met Tom. 
The mix is mine. Tom put the finishing touches on it with his mastering skills.

Wow! You have been so productive. I started with the things you did. I find it very cool to work with those tools. You can be very creative as this song proves.

Hey thanks Bernardo. 
We all gotta start somewhere, and there's always a learning curve!
A piece of my "prehistory," this. Glad you enjoyed it my friend...

Lot’s of things going around that are wild and intense. Didn’t know the sun was one of them. We might only last another billion or two years. In the meantime this will certainly entertain us with swirling, sonic fun.

Hey Charlie, don't get me started on cosmogonical and astronomical theories!
Lol...
Anyway, our star is partying hardy right now, as it passes through one of it's several cycles.
Might as well take it as a creative opportunity!
Thanks for lending an ear and a word my friend.

I dig this one.   This could be the soundtrack to a documentary about the exploration of space or something along those lines.   Coool!

Thanks Mark. Not the type of thing I usually post, but I've been watching the Sun's activity of late and wanted to post something relative. Fortunately I had this old chestnut tucked away from twenty years ago.
Glad you came along for the trip!

Thanks Al... Back when I first began recording in Garage Band, I couldn't believe all the possibilities the technology opened up. I experimented a lot! Some of those experiments came out OK, including this one.
The current Sun-cycle gave me the excuse I needed to post it. LOL...

Thank you for listening and commenting Jim. Pretty much all of my music is designed to be listened to on headphones. I love subtle (and NOT so subtle!) dynamics... I guess I've never totally outgrown psychedelia!
LOL...
