3am Listening

Improvised piano over an arpeggiated Minimoog and a Minimoog bass, from around December of 2012. 

This is the first take, and it feels "live".  I like this recording because there are parts that are loose around the edges. I hadn't been practicing piano for a long time when I sat down to record this. Ouch. Kids, practice your instrument!

Pamina - Blue Mountain

Chopin's insane, angry, beautiful 2nd scherzo. He weighted 88lbs soaking wet but having heard and played this I wouldn't argue with him...

Shirobon - Regain Control (Mitch Murder Remix)

A piano improvisation, comprised of three separate improvised takes of minimal, solo piano. 






Solo Piano Improvisation, July 2014

Chopin, as always, making pain beautiful.
IMO the most perfect of his 21 nocturnes.

Chopin Nocturne In C Minor Opus 48/1

At the beginning, Jamie and I wanted to create a jam session with 3 keyboardists. We started the track with Calaminus at the organ solo, Jamie at the trombone patch and me at the electric piano. Later, Mirko "StringBurner" joined us on the bass, bring us beautiful bass arrangements and an outstanding solo. Thanks to Mirko and thanks to Jamie Rhind & Calaminus  for their amazing keyboards solos.

Tightrope - Memimo Tuati (from the album Dreams)

Didn't want to bore anyone, so I eliminated the first 2 minutes of the ambient part, it was a slow buildup.
The piece was well over 6 minutes, maybe I should have left it.

All Minor Blues (feat. Philippe Saisse)

A treat today to share another original, Fresh Air, with Stephen Lipinski on guitar.  Pinner is simply one of the finest jazz fusion guitarists here on SoundCloud...and you will hear why.    Stephen combines high level ability with taste, rhythm and always an angular, cool line.  Check him out on Together, For Miles, and several other favorites.  Such great playing once again Stephen!  Always a treat:)

Fresh Air - with Stephan "Pinner" Lipinski / guitar

From Dan van den Berg: "My latest release called "Amargo y Dulce" now has an alternate take with the wonderful addittions by Daniele Petrocchi. A splendid bass player from Italy who has a wonderfully versatile playing style both rhythmically and lyrically AND not shy to show some real flashy lines coming from his technical prowess. And that fits this track so well. Of course I refer to Pace de Lucia here, who introduced the electric bass to his flamenco music and often played duets with Carles Benavent.
Daniele jumped in immediately on my invite to add his parts, that start halfway through the track. To stay with the style he played his beautiful Jerzy Drozd Barcelona bass here. I hope you'll enjoy his addittions as well as I did!"

If you like loud pianos, heavy rock and massive drums, you've come to the right place. These are full tracks, tests, works-in-progress, and experiments.  Heavy rock, progressive instrumental, progressive metal, fusion-rock live here. And some ambient-groove for the late-night my-ears-need-a-break moments.
