Back to my Synthwave and retro side, a very special song I've been preparing: Rescue.

This one was inspired by old investigative and action movies, specially thinking of scenes that involve police chases at night and victim/hostage rescues.

Out Past Hawthorne Creek (Shawn Berkeley & JanKun)

Now, after all this, I can say that, besides the pleasure of the sight of these glorious things, I may now shut my eyes against any other objects, nor for the future trouble myself to see things of state and show, as being sure never to see the like again in this world.

The Coronation

Subito, according to Wikipedia, signifies sudden changes in dynamics in a piece of music I.e. suddenly very loud or very quiet.

This duet between Piano Motifs playing Ravenscroft and me playing GeoTenorSax explores this idea.

The Randomise Velocity setting in PM is at maximum and the exposed Melody & Accomp Vel(ocity) parameters are being controlled by Sample and Hold Rozeta LFOs to make each run-through unique.
