All of my finished compositions started as improvised discoveries.
If an improv session sounds good, I upload them as a piece.
Sometimes these are better than the finished pieces, and I'm at a loss to reproduce them. 
October Smell of Sweet Decay is especially beautiful, and I think it might be the best thing I've done, tbh.
I'll add pieces to this playlist as they are produced, and usually they can be put on in the background to just kinda be there...

Safe-TX-Perimental

Simple bass, inspired by 8-bit music and the sheer volume of self-inflicted change I've dealt with in 2021

Piano 2

Say Something at The End of a Line

Song About Me-TV Girl

Ambient piano piece that is a meandering trip, stopping to think along the way, but probably coming up with no answers. Put it on whilst working, see if it helps.

October Sweet Smell of Decay

Short term madness. An improv set in a manic state with 12 themes created within 4 minutes. No edits, so please forgive any mistakes. Look for half-quotes from live-or-let-die and deck-the-halls. 
I consider this piece the musical equivalent of the NES boondoggle "Action 52". There's a lot here, most of which is not finished, and little of it is what you might call pleasurable.

ADHD Medley of New Accidents

ADHD Medley of Accidents

Meditative, alternate title was "hurricane chimes"

The Rolling Drone and the Stuttering Stop

Southampton (thing2train)

Something I made in Fruity Loops back in 2005? Or thereabouts. It's meant to evoke sort of a Mega Man stage sound.

BGS 153

An composition I did during the pandemic. Musically, it's pretty simple, but for me it marked a point in time where I was very excited as I was re-teaching myself piano and testing out different MIDI strings and effects like reverb. :)

You Won't See it Through

You Won't See it Through / Romancing the Drone

Demo / experimental attempt at a piece of music made entirely of pentatonic scales treated as chords in a progression.
Several ideas being tried, missing connective tissue and proper arrangement.

Less Myself

Fully Fledged

Beacon

Not actually safe. Not really an inspector.
I'm compelled to make these tunes, so sharing them makes it less of a waste. 
Mostly contemporary piano stuff, but there's a few other things in here.
