Rock

This trumpet and piano instrumental version was done back in April 2021. I always loved the way Joe Cocker did this song - so loving and gentle. I think we all have or had someone special who we think of in this way. That they are so beautiful to you. I did the trumpet part but the piano arrangement and playing was done by Doug MacKenzie from Australia. A true genius on the piano. Written by Billy Preston and Bruce Fisher

You Are So Beautiful 2021

You are on a hospital bed with the beeping thing and it stops beeping.  Multi-layer original composition with me doing vocals, playing guitar, old Yamaha keyboard, and EWI4000s.

Flatline

Improvised multi-layer rock version of the classic taps military song.  Trying to emphasize that the battlefield has shifted to the digital world.  Old Yamaha keyboard, guitar, guitar effects pedal, EWI4000s.  Waveform artwork is one of my circuits I made of a functioning microcontroller on a breadboard.

Wiretaps

Improvised multi-layer rock with me on guitar, old Yamaha keyboard, and EWI4000s.  This song was later featured in a play called "Rock and Roll Mole" performed at a Chesterfield, VA library.

Now What

Multi-layer improvisation with Korg Radias keyboard and guitar, and TC Helicon Voice Pedal.

Ambivalence

This song is not cleaned up at all.  Very little post-recording work.
The point of this song was to demonstrate just one of the processes I use to make songs on a BOSS RC 50 Loop Pedal track, and to try out making a composite music video of me playing multiple parts like everyone does at some point.  This is just my raw voice with no vocoders or pedals this time.  I kind of did an ok job on the video, but I'll let you be the judge.  I used Kdenlive on Ubuntu Linux to make the video.

LYRICS:
Let there be something new.
Can there be two?
Can there be three?
Me and me and me?
Should there be four?
Should there be more?
We were alone with The Nullanon.
Is it better now?
Or is it The Same?
What is The Difference?
Are we to blame?
How far is Forever?
Let there be something new.

Let There Be Something New

The 11th song in the Path Of The Nullanon.  Starts out with some drone into some heavy rock, then some soul hammond b3, then some reggae to close it off.

LYRICS:
Remember when it was simple?
When everything was hit or miss?
Now it's all just ups and downs at every turn.
Did we ask for this?
One moment you're above it all,
But then you fall.
Then you wake up,
And you're back on top.
Sometimes we just want things to be the same,
But things keep changing.
Chromatic game.

Chromatic Game

Les Hirondelles by Elisabeth Dicker and YuRob

I released The Knight Errant a few years ago, and have thought about doing a remix of the tune ever since. I guess this is more like a rearrangement.  The original was in 6/8 The return is 4/4 and has a more electronic, and dare I say it, dance vibe!

Return of the Knight Errant

This track is part of the EP "Reflective". Pre-Save: https://hypeddit.com/fyja4r

Reflective

Safe

Safe (Ft. Debra Buesking)

An electronic/industrial piece, with some fusion elements. Out of my comfort zone here! Maybe it reflects the tempest of the times.

Cosmic Call

below sunset7.13.25

I am always glad that you stop by and take the time to come.
Thank you as always.Crimson, vibrant red, red that attracts success.
The deeper, more passionate red is blood!
Blood symbolizes many emotions, such as confusion, compassion, coldness, emotion, and passion.
It is blood that we inherit.
It is the source of life, a deep, vibrant, warm and important color to us.

Deep Red in Scarlet

Ascension tells the story of a protagonist following his career path, overcoming fears and barriers, getting over self doubt and adverse conditions. Or maybe the tale of a space odyssey operated by a huge company and its rise to the most powerful entity of mankind. 

Choose whatever you want and please tell it in the comments.

This is a hybrid track starting with a solo violin and piano and strings accompaniment. A constant soft string ostinato is opposed to a synth pulse. The middle part starts very ambient with spacious pads but rises in tension with the help of the orchestra.

The climax is introduced with a strong melodic statement played by horns. It's further developed with modulation and varied instrumentation.

The outro is more or less a mirror of the intro.

Ascension

German composer Stefan Kraft reimagines Bruno Sanfilippo’s ‘Danza de Reflejos’ with a graceful string arrangement that deepens its emotional resonance. This reworked version blends poetic minimalism with cinematic warmth, offering a fresh yet faithful take. Released by the reflective neoclassical label ad21.

Danza de Reflejos Reworked

Listen

For reasons unknown but time will tell...
Multi-instrumentalist, all types of music, all types of methods.
Occasional collaborations with other artists.
Sometimes I post the sheet music if it's piano.
Lately, my favorite instrument is a TE OP-1 Field keyboard.
