Dope track Tony Prescott! You should google 'bullet rank', they are promoters that give 500 free plays to anybody!

My ambient and neo-classical pieces.  Instrumental only.

Spirals

An alt-classical piece with (virtual) strings, trumpet, piano, double bass and a spacey synth.  Ringlinglow is a village on the edge of Sheffield near where I live.  The name Ringinglow probably refers to a ring of stones that marked an ancient burial mound, however, there is a folk story that  the village got its name after a man, who lost on the moors in bad weather, was saved when he heard the bells of the parish church 'ringing low'. The image shows the Oxstones in the Peak District near Ringinglow.

The Sea, Part 1, the Firth of Lorne (with Ewan Mathers)

Generation 1

This piece was born many years ago, when a relative had passed away. It means a lot to me, as it is my first orchestral piece based on a piano idea. 
I hope you enjoy it!

Version #1 Vocals, Music and Mix by Eddie Harrison
Lyrics by Tony Harris 2012 (BMI)

V-1. HE GOT HIS RECORD DEAL TODAY
A SILVER EAGLE BUS IS ON THE WAY
HE'S ON TOP OF THE WORLD
BUT - UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN

CHORUS
AS THE WORLD GOES ROUND AND ROUND
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN
THE GRASS IS NOT ALWAYS GREENER
ON THE OTHER SIDE
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN

V-2. HE'S BEEN ON THE ROAD FOR A YEAR
GIRLS ARE SCREAMING AT EVERY SHOW
IT'S NO LONGER ABOUT THE MUSIC
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN

REPEAT CHORUS

V-3. MAMA TAUGHT HIM RIGHT FROM WRONG
BUT FAME CAN DRAG YOU DOWN
IN THIS WORLD WE LIVE IN
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN

REPEAT CHORUS

ENDING
AS THE WORLD GOES ROUND AND ROUND
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN
AS THE WORLD GOES ROUND AND ROUND
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN
UP IS SOMETIMES DOWN

Up Is Sometimes Down (Lyrics Tony Harris - Music / Vocals by Eddie Harrison) Original 2012

My first track of the year in 2020; I had no idea how prophetic it would be.  We all lost loved ones or know someone whose loved ones perished in the pandemic (still ongoing) and the heart's cry was to have "one more day" to say what needed to be said, to give them a hug or a kiss, share a laugh or a tear; to give them a fond and fitting farewell.  Annie @annie-smart-1 added a lovely vocal and piano part to this song that lifts it to another level.

For One More Day (instrumental version)

Ambient sounds based on the idea of a pulsing star (pulsar). This track is also available on Spotify and Apple Music.  Image is of a pulsating star (blue dot) from NASA's public domain image repository.  Available on Spotify/Apple Music.

Win Hill

Pulsar

The rattle of a train carriage on the rails speeding through the dark.

Night Train

Indie classical piece with some jazz inspiration.  Photo is of an artwork seen at FutureFest. Title inspired by the book Artificial Minds by Stan Franklin.

A Continuum from More to Less
