Loop Beat with a Kaospad and Theremin playing solos, also an old piano tune is played twice.

R&N (18.2)

I wanted to do another take of this original song, it's one of my favorites. It needed a bit of a tempo change. Got this live take down in one take which is always nice:) I started writing this song back in 2015 in a very difficult time in my life.  Written to myself, and I hope it will encourage you. For all the dreamers out there. Thanks so much for listening! Stay strong out there and remember the moon is all beat up but shines when you look up!

My Dreamer 

What a lonely night
Not an easy fight at all 
So many dark streets
Tearing up heartbeats brick wall
All those mountain tops
All those sudden drops free fall
Your soul needs your knees 
To be strong like trees stand tall
Remember 

The moon is all beat up but shines when you look up oh my dreamer
Hope you don't give up hope you don't grow up oh my dreamer
Try and keep your eyes up when all your doubts wash
Oh my dreamer

All those pretty eyes 
Promising blue skies no call
Scared there is no hope 
Tired of a slick slope to crawl
Everything is dark 
Happy for a spark so small 
Your heart sees your bones 
Colorful gemstones don't stall
Remember

The moon is all beat up but shines when you look up oh my dreamer
Hope you don't give up hope you don't grow up oh my dreamer
Try and keep your eyes up when all your doubts wash
Oh my dreamer
Oh my dreamer oooo oooo 
Oh my dreamer oooo oooo 

Remember
The moon is all beat up but shines when you look up oh my dreamer

3. Brahms Clarinet Quintet, Op. 115 mvt III Andantino; presto assai, ma non sentimento

I was born in Leicester in the late 1950's. Since semi-retirement and subsequent retirement (as a Dermatologist and formerly G.P) I have spent some of my spare time trying to learn music theory. I also enjoy long distance running as well as cycling, skiing and tennis. I enjoy cooking, gardening and growing a few vegetables. And fine wine (in moderation). I enjoy insect photography, with a particular interest in hoverflies..
To my regret I never learnt a musical instrument when younger but I have listened to and been fascinated by music for as long as I can remember. The advent of the computer age has allowed me to pursue my desire to compose music. I use Logic Pro X software (and MuseScore3 for recent piano compositions). My compositions reflect my varied listening preferences (including Contemporary Classical, Jazz and  Music from other cultures around the world).
