really great sound for a 12 track. The doubling up is very effective.

I'm certainly no technical wizard - we use Logic, on which I jus about get by - but reading about your method of recording is fascinating 'cause it makes so much sense to me.  Probably what I'd do if working on my own.  But it's the writing that shows your strengths and the atmosphere in these tracks always hits the right spot.  Totally enjoying listening to these tracks, Clive.  They're special.

great feel man , cruising but with intention

I love the sound of the rhythm guitar and with that flute.... the river is going great. Good work

StateOfGrace

I went down  to the corner market
To talk to the local prophet
He said $   12.50 please will that be cash or charge

Went home to my one room kingdom
To drink of the liquid wisdom
And let the spirit take the pain away
Take me far away to a better place
Take me back 
To a State of Grace

You know sometimes I’m feeling up 
Sometimes I feel a little down yea
Just trying to get ahead
But I just keep going round and round

Called in to the Tex Mex Shamen 
He said yea man keep on rocking
So I practice my licks till I feel in my finger tips

Let the spirit take the pain away
Take me back
To a State of Grace

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Solo¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

You know sometimes I’m feeling up 
Sometimes I feel a little down yea
Just trying to get ahead
But I just keep going round and round

So I search out the online gurus
To yourself they said to be true
The more you know the more that you will grow
And so it goes

Let the spirit take the pain away
Take me far away to a better place
Take me back 
To a State of Grace
To a better place
To a State of Grace

I'm Here Alone

Wasting Time

w17d0

I’ve traveled the seas and I’ve wandered the lands
I’ve sprinkled the seeds grown into these grass
Encircled by peaks I’m unable to pass
I feel like a stone being crushed into sand

You can run all you want you can cower and hide
Fall asleep with a gun and wake up with a knife
The Devil has come to ruin our plans 
These are the deeds of a desperate man
You can dig all you want I’ve got nothing to hide
No blood on my hands no guilt in my mind
My body is old but I give what I can
These are the deeds of a desperate man

I came to a town where nobody smiled 
And tilted my hat to a woman and child
I offered support but the people were shy
Their soil ablaze and the desert is dry

You can run all you want you can cower and hide
Cloak your skin from the sun fornicate with the night
The Devil has come to ruin our plans 
These are the deeds of a desperate man
You can dig all you want I’ve got nothing to hide
Overcome by the heat and it messed with my mind
My shoulders are frail but I do what I can
These are the deeds of a desperate man

You can run all you want you can cower and hide
Fall asleep with a gun and wake up with a knife
The Devil has come to ruin our plans 
These are the deeds of a desperate man
You can dig all you want I’ve got nothing to hide
No blood on my hands no guilt in my mind
My body is old but I give what I can
These are the deeds of  a desperate man

Desperate Man

'Another False Flag' is a Fusion track. With the world currently in a state of chaos, the old saying of: 'Think the best, but prepare for the worst' came to mind. So this is me thinking the best and hopefully we can all stay on that track, knowing that 'Another False Flag' could happen at any moment and being prepared for it.

Another False Flag

Slam Dance Christmas

This is alternative rock song. It has originality and also drama. Mood of this track is sadness.

Tragedy

Cosmic Danse – The Planetary Shuffle
February 2023
Duration: 3:00
Listen to the Cosmic Danse Playlist: https://soundcloud.com/bruce-klepper-1/sets/comic-danse
Special thanks to John-Marc Ventimiglia https://soundcloud.com/john-marc-ventimiglia for his highly valued musical input and for creating the planetary panning/gliss/rotation tool that was used to compose this piece.

The Solar System is the gravitationally bound system of the Sun and the objects that orbit it. It formed 4.6 billion years ago from the gravitational collapse of a giant interstellar molecular cloud.  The four inner system planets—Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars—are terrestrial planets, being composed primarily of rock and metal. The four giant planets of the outer system are substantially larger and more massive than the terrestrials. The two largest, Jupiter and Saturn, are gas giants, being composed mainly of hydrogen and helium; the next two, Uranus and Neptune, are ice giants, being composed mostly of volatile substances.  The orbits of the planets are ellipses with the Sun at one focus, though all except Mercury are very nearly circular. The orbits of the planets are all more or less in the same plane, called the ecliptic and defined by the plane of the Earth's orbit.  The orbits of the planets, based on Earth's 1 year orbit, are as follows: Mercury .24 years, Venus .61, Earth 1.00, Mars 1.88, Jupiter 11.86, Saturn 29.46, Uranus 84.01, Neptune 164.80, Pluto 248.80.  They all orbit in the same direction, counter-clockwise looking down from above the Sun’s north pole; all but Venus, Uranus and Pluto also rotate in that same sense. 
For alto sax, tenor sax, baritone sax, trumpet, metallophone, piano, bass, virtual instruments and percussion.

basic copyright on all tracks.
all of the tracks on here are made with a 12 track boss digital recorder.      to make some sounds more spacious such as the main chords and melodies i have to use 2 tracks at the same time. this is why i try to keep my tracks short because i can only use a limited number of sounds. if i use 2 tracks for bass, drums, chords and melody it only leaves me with 4 tracks for effects and secondary melodies. i prefer to record only one sound on the channels allocated as this avoids problems with volume levels.  i'm not a great musician, but i am also not very good with computers, so this is the only way i can demonstrate my musical ideas.  a big thank you to everyone who listens and comments.........and especially those who like.
