Now is raining and the sound of the rain is perfect for this song

Here you can listen to Derek Walcott's poem recited by Kabat-Zinn, saying a prose statement was "bound to be inadequate" in communicating his point.

Manfred Hamil - Rehabilitation

You may UNDERSTAND but do you OVERSIT? An ambient score tune with interesting lyrics and amazing tones of sonic bliss to take you to the zone where you feel best.

Oversit

A tune in the key of A. A Locrian scale with a seven/seven time signature at 98 beats per minute. I mean, what more could a being want? I suppose now I have to do the art. Ok! Done the art and hopefully the text will fit in the box provided which I don't add till the audio file has uploaded. Now I listen to residual TV and wait for the upload. I can also hear the ceiling fan whirring away, just going around in circles creating a controlled turbulence, like an artificial breeze which blows over my skin gently cooling and refreshing it. I stood up from the chair at my work station which is too small for me and spoke to the TV watcher and they told me my tea had gone cold so I sung a response and sat back down again. Adding Art, Redoing art as the text doesn't fit. Done

Night Pijnafloppy

Nothing much to do with a porcelain flower holding device but this track is a ripper and it comes with lyrics. OK 133 bpm C# 7 / 7 Enigmaticca Spectacular using a free VST called umm, can't remember but I do know it starts with a P. lol. Yes this tune will get you crackin !!  Listen to it and learn the lyrics then sing them to your friends and win those Global song competitions that are on TV Easily !!

Vase

A remix of sorts. There are so many instruments in this track, that i always had to arrangement ideas of drone rock vs. folk merging together that they sort of overshadow these intruments on the album version- really its like two separate arrangements!. This is a mix i made last august with basically little to no processing. It might be the only clarinet solo i ever play.

Artemis (forest instrumental)

While we cannot see small nanoscopic objects like proteins or other molecules that make up virtually all living matter including our cells, tissues, as well as pathogens such as viruses, our computational algorithm allows us to make its material manifestation audible.  This piece is a musical representation of the amino acid sequence and structure of the spike protein of the pathogen of COVID-19, 2019-nCoV (protein data bank identifier 6VSB [1]). 

MUSICAL DECEIT

A virus’ genome hijacks the host cell’s protein manufacturing machinery, and forces it to replicate the viral genome and produce viral proteins to make new viruses from it.  This musical art teaches us something about the fine line between beauty of life and death as an opposite pole.  As you listen to the protein you will find that the intricate design results in incredibly interesting and actually pleasing, relaxing sounds. This doesn’t really convey the deadly impacts this particularly protein is having on the world. This aspect of the music shows the deceiving nature of the virus, how it hijacks our body to replicate, and hurt us along the way. So, the music is a metaphor for this nature of the virus to deceive the host and exploit it for its own multiplication. 

HOW IT IS DONE: 

What you hear is a multi-layered algorithmic composition featuring both the vibrational spectrum of the entire protein (expressed in sound and rhythmic elements), the sequence and folding of amino acids that compose the virus spike structure, as well as interwoven melodies - forming counterpoint music - reflecting the complex hierarchical intersecting geometry of the protein [2].
