a compilation of a few of the songs from my overall set

Jaycee showreel 2022.mp3

A melancholic, contemplative, somewhat eerie, frankly irregular piece for solo piano.

Time (2014 remastered version)

Another experiment with AI music generating software udio.com. I think that Fleetwood Mac might neeed to sue them!!

This time I took what the software had created initially and put it in Cubase, allowing me to play around with the basic structure of it to make a more coherent piece, then I added some electric piano.

I can't take any credit for this as the software not only created the music and the lyrics, but it also produced the piece...my only contribution was the piano!

Flipping through pages
Faces frozen in a joyous rage
Laughter locked in a silent cage
Hey hey
Do you recall those bygone days
Picturesque scenes in sepia phase
Holdin' onto memories (sweet memories)
Times fading but they never age
Every line, a story stays

Hey hey
In worn-out albums, our history lays
Love and youth in a timeless blaze
Fingers trace smiles (timeless smiles)
Friends side by side in spirited style
Echoes of laughter spanning miles
Hey hey
Can't forget the adventures we made (we made)
Sun-kissed summers, in the shade

Hey hey
Do you recall those bygone days
Picturesque scenes in sepia phase
Can't forget the adventures we made (we made)
Sun-kissed summers, in the shade

Can't forget the adventures we made (we made)
Sun-kissed summers, in the shade

This is a teaser for the brand new progressive rock album from Tiger Moth Tales. Now available from www.whiteknightrecords.co.uk
In February 2015, Pete Jones the man behind Tiger Moth Tales began the challenge of writing and recording a brand new album in one month. The inspiration came from the RPM challenge which encourages bands and artists to do this every year in the month of February. 
"It's a great way to get the creative juices flowing. You dont have time to go back and revise things, or to think too much about whether what you're doing is right. You just have to go for it, and the results were surprising." (Pete) 
The album (Story Tellers - Part 1) has a theme of classic  children's stories, and the tracks are musical tributes to those stories and their authors. 
Pete runs the full gamut of emotions here, 	from the grace and poignance of Beauty Sleeps, to  the zany madness of A Kids tale, from tragedy to celebration. You'll find it all in Story Tellers.
"Those who enjoyed the last album Cocoon will hopefully get a lot out of Story Tellers, though there is more wacky stuff on the new album. To write and record an album in a month is quite an intense process. It's possible I went a bit mad while writing it, but I'm so glad I saw it through and I hope others will enjoy it." (Pete)
Story Tellers - part 1 will be out soon!

Album

Little Heart

I've been a semi-pro keyboard player and singer since the mid 70's but only started writing songs whilst at a loose end in February 2011 - don't ask why!

In no way am I a lyricist so I rely on collaborations with others, nameley my fellow Soundcloud members Paul Beaumont (found on here as The Time Zones), Carroll Kiphen (found on here as Carroll Kiphen!) and Lucy Prasad (yea, you guessed it, on here as Lucy Prasad!!), along with my buddy, Rod Barry.

If you have any comments to make please add them :-)
