Freely improvised.   Album art was generated with C# programming.

Confining oneself to a 3 octave keyboard is in some ways liberating.

Created in 2014 on June 4th.   Using a small keyboard without sustain pedal.   Several pieces were created during that week in the same fashion... but only a few were rendered and submitted online.   The thematic material is much like a bird call.  The tonality is flexible and unconfined.

Improvisation June 4th 2014 on a Three Octave Keyboard Without Pedal

Wrote this over the course of three days, right after dropping out of college. Another one of those songs with an unclear future. Watch this live on youtube here: https://youtu.be/8Tfs0zNu5OQ

Lyrics:

Each night
To make it right
Call out the fore                        

Then we begin
To breathe again
But still tend to slow more

Winter, take the fire
And raise the light
'Til no one comes found

Their face slips
Into a grimace
Baffled by the witness

Hold your heart beating
Turn in your destroying

For you
Few would speak in
Someone culls to weaken

Her course
Stays the main shore
Hull in solid lake door

Hang while you come down
Someone sails, there's no one left now

But they sink
Away in glory
Dreary-minded worry

They know
Trail of paint flow
Tucked in by the stain coat

Hang your heart beating
Turn towards me and stop destroying

Still know
I would see through
Every rite to speak to

Each night
To make it right
Call out the fore

Then you begin
To sing again
But still tend to slow more

They know
To blind the story
Still inclined to hurry

But they still sink
Away in glory
Dreary-minded worry

Hang while you come down
From the sail
There's no one left now

Hang, Your Heart Beating
