Snowflake JonD came over about a month or so and stated the snow will be here soon. We came up with this chord progression and called it Snowflake. BiaB style = Fair Lana - Smooth Jazz I kept the drums, bass, and piano verbatim. I am playing everything else using my MIDI keyboard controller, guitar controller, and/or my guitar controller. I did some editing and writing of some parts. What do you think?

Well, you sure know how to play that MIDI keyboard Mario. Just for fun we ordered the Casio CTK-2400 keyboard (don't have a lot of money ;-) ) it appears to have a very nice and fun sampling function. See what we can do with that in future recordings.

Hello, Mario
Excellent MIDI tune! Very nice melody and splendid chord progression! French horn and solo violin are very well played. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Very well done, Mario! I love the atmosphere of this tune, it's like being in a dream with that gentle reverb guiding the MIDI along. Great work on this - thanks for sharing 
Cheers, Deryk

Really enjoyable Mario and JonD. You've managed to capture a neat melody, somewhat captivating. The variations you've used give further interest and dimension. Cool  .

Many thanx to all whom listened and commented.
Torrey, Kenny, Dave, Kenny, Deryk, Scott, and VideoTrack thanx for those kind words. I greatly appreciate them.
Rob, I'm sure you will get some great songs using that Casio. I don't have a lot of money either so I know where you are coming from.
Shigeki, thanx for those very nice compliments. I appreciate the French horn and solo violin comments.
Thanx Floyd, I have been called a madman before but never with the word MIDI in front of it!

Floyd nailed it: "Nicely done, Mario... you are a MIDI madman!"
We know very little about the ins and outs of MIDI but it doesn't take a genius to appreciate the amazing work you do with it. No exception here.
It went down well with our coffee break!

Hey Mario,
Another pleasant trip into midi land! Shortly after your song started playing I thought, "Artfully created and very atmospheric". At the end of the journey, that thought was still resonating in my mind. It's 'thumbs up' from me!
All the best, Noel
