Dark Alley

My title track off of Velvet Voyage, very first recording in the jazz genre. Also the first I wrote in the fusion/smooth genre!

A Piano piece I started developing when I was six years old. Which is ever evolving over the years and sounds completely different today and is much longer live.

A song I wrote using  programmed sequences.  They're
 the ones in the background.  Also released on our demo CD.

A very unique track by Darren with Velvet.

Song that was a last minute thought in the studio to use time we paid for played very much live.

Extranal

A quick thought that I was playing around with but gave up on. But shows how i arrange my compositions.
