What Would You Do? 

What would you do if I told you I still love you?
Would you laugh at me? Would you walk away?
Would you love me too?
What would you do?

What would you do if I told you that I love you?
Would you take my hand? Would you kiss my lips
and say you love me too?
My feelings are true.

Will you return to me? Do you remember we
made a love you vow? Oh I need you now.
We could start anew.
But don't say we're through.

Don't say we're through.
I still love you.

(Steven Templar words and music 1987)
Prophet 600 and me singing a love song I wrote. 1st demo recorded onto cassette tape in 1987.

1987 what would you do?

A classic early to mid 80s drum machine. Has a very 'Don't you want me' sound! Similar to the Linn Drum. All sounds sampled with extra loops to play with!

Elka Drumstar 80 Drum Machine Sample Pack

All sounds made on a Sequential Circuits Inc Prophet 600 synthesiser.

1987 Blade Runner Ambience 2 (Prophet 600)

All sounds made with an SCI Prophet 600 synthesiser in 1987.

1987 Prophet 600 Industrial Intro

All sounds made on a Prophet 600 analogue synthesiser in 1988.

1988 Pretty Lady Reprise (Prophet 600)

All sounds made on my SCI Prophet 600 analogue synth in 1988.

Evermore was her name,
We got smashed on cheap Champagne,
I'm gonna' call her name,
For evermore.

Evermore (she stays here)
Don't you ever (leave me)
Evermore, whoah oh oh yeah yeah.

1988 Evermore (Prophet 600)

Out now: FUTURISM - EP
The future is a distant memory.  Five synth-flavoured tracks inspired by 80s pop culture, built with modern hardware. Conjuring up images of neon highways and dystopian mega-cities.

I just bought UVI Falcon, on sale until the 9th of November (One Day Left) at $220.00 US Dollars, a bargain...GET IT!
these are only factory sounds...and you get a $100.00 voucher toward any other Library

TheAssociation - First Few Seconds In UVI Falcon

Another Vangelis type track I produced around the same time as "Hades", (not quite so dramatic though!). I had uploaded this under my SA Fred moniker previously.
Its one of those I have mixed feelings for, I never really felt this was finished, and unlikely to revisit. But I think it holds together mostly, I like the sounds and the feel, even if it needs a little more meat on its bones :)

Above Clouds

november

Just playing around with drones. Still needs a bit of work.

Wrong place at the right time.

It has come to my attention that most people on soundcloud that follow me then stop following me when I follow back. It's just how they get followers. So I have opted out of the whole following-back game altogether. I also don't care any more about how many followers I have since in these circumstances it is completely meaningless. People with no music at all have thousands of followers for nothing more than choosing an avatar picture of a semi naked woman. It's all a bit silly really :-)
Steven.
