Wow, really nice track. Pleasantly easy going and very well performed.

Fantastic stuff as always! The bass fits in perfectly and the guitars have a great ambient detail

nice work, great composition and production

I almost missed this one! Holy camoly!! This is so beautiful! Reminds me of some of my favorite music by infected mushroom o.o! At the same time sounds like some instrumental from porcupine tree! And the synths sound like something I would come up with! Ok. This track is one of the best ones I heard in a long time! For this you go into my special playlist! Would love to collab with you one day! Very good stuff. Thanks for this <3!

Fantastic track. The guitars are great and an excellent production!

Great song progression. Like the tonality of the guitar and how it sits in the mix.🔥💯

Musical ideas that evoke unforgettable moments.

Iove this vibe, vocal atmosphere is epic and I'm a sucker for a little guitar twiddle and some glisten

Expectations (remastered)

In a little meadow by the forest, the birds, insects, animals and trees celebrate being so alive all the time. And in the middle of the song, one little perky bird lovably sings with abandon(slide whistle.)

Melodica, silver flute, penny whistle, boatswain's pipe, slide whistle, double shepherd's flute, double wind wand, tremolo harmonica, midi, knees, claves, wah wah tube.

Look like a flip 36 in the whip
Real Big zip real fresh clip
Real Firm grip I don’t like no lip
Dumb ass bitch I shot him in the hip

Shawty like dope burnin holes thru the steel sheet
Pay the fuckin toll ya this the real me
Dug a fuckin hole my pistol concealing
Sold ur fucking soul never had a fuckin feeling

Up a fucking pole put a hole through his bitch ass
Switch real quick don’t miss he could slip passed
Eyes on the prize I could die for some tic tacs
Never liked this guy I don’t lie for no big macs 

Spun him like a top bih wet like a mop
Caught em with the drop now he spillin all his slop
I can watch em flop one foot go hop
I don’t stop big Glick go pop 

Lips on a blunt he can kiss on my pistol
Stupid little bitch he can catch a fuckin fist full
Always on the hunt big clips big missiles
Never fucking switch cold blick feeling blissful

Don’t talk to me I can see through ya teeth
One wrong move I’ll put you in a reef
Never liked you bih look like a leech
Whisper in your dreams never go to sleep

My shit loud you gon know when I’m coming
Move like a storm pull up and it’s something
Never feel proud at home when I’m dumping
Never left the car he blow like a pumpkin

Never seen god wtf do I look like
Eyes so dark they black like night
I seem odd my brain ain’t right 
Please don’t start yea I don’t fight

Look like a flip 36 in the whip
Real Big zip real fresh clip
Real Firm grip I don’t like no lip
Dumb ass bitch I shot him in the hip

Shawty like dope burnin holes thru the steel sheet
Pay the fuckin toll ya this the real me
Dug a fuckin hole my pistol concealing
Sold ur fucking soul never had a fuckin feeling

Up a fucking pole put a hole through his bitch ass
Switch real quick don’t miss he could slip passed
Eyes on the prize I could die for some tic tacs
Never liked this guy I don’t lie for no big macs

Caught em with the drop now he spillin all his slop
I can watch em flop one foot go hop
I don’t stop big Glick go pop

PROGRAM NOTE
As a follow-up to our song cycle for soprano and chamber ensemble (or piano), Robert and I  agreed the concept of five characters looking for love online should have a male counterpart. Written for baritone and chamber ensemble, In Real Life II looks at five contemporary men clicking their way to second chances and romance. In “No Frog” we meet a prototypical player, a guy who fluffs his profile, but the truth keeps slipping out. The tone shifts with “Sola Fide,” in which a U.S. veteran of the war in Afghanistan explains the tattoo on his chest and the wounds inside. An older gentleman envisions one last fling in the irreverent “Die with Me.” In “Still Vamping,” a gay man muses on his start-and-stop romantic history. Finally, in “Nice-Plus,” an everyday guy reveals a hidden passion. In Real Life II was commissioned by American Modern Ensemble with funding from the Doctorow Family Foundation.

Soli Deo Gloria!

War Of Courage

Im just staring at the sun; wondering where my life has gone
Ive squandered it all away
On nothing of importance that I can surely say

What’s this life worth living for?
When there’s nothing left worth fighting for
What’s this life worth living for?

Ive been walking all night long; going over what went wrong
Ive thrown it all the way
On nothing of importance that I can surely say

What’s this life worth living for?
When there’s nothing left worth fighting for
What’s this life worth living for?

An epic indie waltz with a little math thrown in for good measure.
