One of my earliest influences on Soundcloud was/is an amazing artist known as BoxTox (@user-247600493). I've always loved his really quirky and creative music which is so fun to listen to because of all the subtle details (for example, unusual percussion, and using quite low air flow in his sax, clarinet, and flute playing, and original rhythms and melodies). 

This tune is my tribute to BoxTox, where I tried to bring in instruments and playing style influenced by his music. It was a lot of fun working on this, especially since I got the chance to practice with the really excellent VST brush drum sounds, even if it's a little busy at times! Of course, I couldn't help myself and smooshed in a middle section that's very typically me, whether it fits in or not!   :) 

All instruments are played using my keyboard, except the flute bits which are played live with a real flute.

Instruments:
- upright bass
- electric guitar
- drums & percussion
- alto & tenor sax
- clarinet
- bassoon
- flute
- organ
- violins
- cello

Best with headphones; thanks for stopping by!

Frequencies Of Love

Even though there's nobody watching over
I offer this prayer to the empty air
That someone may see that someone may care
Even though...

Even though there's nobody watching over
With these hands I hold to a slender hope
That someone may hear that someone may know
Even though...

This whole world may explode
Still, I'll be at this bar drinking and praying alone
Even so, even so I know there's nobody watching over me

Even though I've no faith no more
I wanted to be lifted by the gospel choir
I want to be sanctified, I want to be sanctified
Even though...

Even though I'm one infinitesimal soul
I got no cause to believe
And yet I want to believe that
Somebody may be watching over me
Even though...

Even though there's nobody watching over...
