I love assembling themes taken from tracks, refrains, riffs and chord sequences that have embedded themselves in my brain over the years that have moved me in some way.   GarageBand is such a versatile piece of free software that allows me to roam through so many variations of styles and rhythms and instruments.   I don’t care if no one hears them.  It is fun to assemble sounds that are so mentally rewarding to create.  Music moves the soul and creates such a range of emotions.  Should you ever stumble across these tracks let me know what you think.  Be honest. (Oh and I know they are rough and the timing is out and the volumes are all over the place but it kept me sane during lockdown)

Saxophone and Flute Tutor and Bass player.
