Spiritual daze

This is a collaboration with Taylor Brysiewicz.  Upon discovering an adequately functioning upright piano in the basement of the conference room at the Banff Centre (where we were both visiting for a conference on Random Algebraic Geometry), we decided to play some improvisational piano duets which led to this collaborative composition.  Taylor had the foresight to take a quick audio memo on his phone where we recorded a few excerpts alongside some commentary about the chord progression.  After returning home from the conference, Taylor turned our fragments into a completed piano part.  I then added a flute part while trying to maintain the impromptu spirit of the original, namely, by locking in some of the improvised phrases from my early takes (as opposed to indulging in my normal habit of making dozens of rounds of revisions).

Composed by Taylor Brysiewicz and Skai Eriksson

Song art created in Mathematica (it is the level set of an algebraic function with randomly sampled coefficients, hence fitting into the theme of the conference that gave occasion to the collaboration).

Girls Never Stop Dancing (Roy Roy and J.J.)

We’ve been going around in circles with this situation 
Lots of frustration.  Not sure how much more I can take
I try put a smile on my face and pretend I’m happy
But lately it’s been getting hard to fake.

So tell me something cause I’m trying to find a reason not to go.
Tell me something cause I’m tired of watching the same old show.

I’m content to stay at home -  I know you think it’s boring.
You’d rather be out touring - I’m just not wired that way.
We used to talk a lot but now our conversation struggles. 
We don’t have quite as many snuggles.
I’m sorry but there’s things I need to say. 

So tell me something cause I’m trying to find a reason not to go. 
Tell me something cause I’m tired of watching the same old show.

When we first met everything felt new.
I couldn’t wait to be with you.
Lately I'm feeling off my game.
I’m looking for a spark to reignite the flame.

It’s like we’re stuck in that movie groundhog day
The two of us have lost our way
Don’t know  what’s right don’t know what’s wrong
But every day we play the same old song

One of these days the clouds will lift and we’ll have some clarity

So tell me something cause I’m trying to find a reason not to go 
Tell me something cause I’m tired of watching the same old show
Tell me something cause I’m tired of watching the same old show

Mysterious and relaxing ambient music. I used a synthesizer to create a sound that evokes the image of water falling and disappearing.

Songs with a twinge of humor (and some a bit more serious).  
I do not use AI to create my songs. 
Recently I have had the urge to pick up my guitars (Taylor 114ce and Fender Squire) and I have been trying to use more guitar in my songs.  
My go to .vst plug ins are  EZkeys 2, EZ Bass and  EZ drummer 3) and my DAW is Logic Pro 11. 
I welcome your comments and enjoy listening to all the great music on SoundCloud.
