Hi all, I did not post any new songs last year. It was because I thought I should select a set of songs I like and have different tastes, tune them as best as I can and make up an album out of them all, rather than creating new songs. Thus I have created the album "Sincerely Yours" containing new remixed and best tuned versions of 12 songs of mine. I suppose most of you are too busy to have time to check them out. If you are interested in my songs by any chance, I would appreciate if you listen to some of them. https://soundcloud.com/hirokata1121/sets/sincerely-yoursAccording to the rules, I am going to pick up some songs and make separate posts to introduce each of them. So, this is just for your information. I hope this does not violate the rules. Hiroshi

こんにちは Hiroshi,
I'm sitting here listening to "Far Beyond The Clouds" as I type. It's beautiful. The sound is haunting and the arrangement guides the ears along a fine journey of wonderful music.
I wish you well with your album.
All the best, Noel

Hi Hiroshi,
I also have to work my way through your album. So far I listened to Far beyond the clouds and Homage to my cats. They are beautiful! But have you used BiaB-instruments? I couldn't find me f.i. a flute as you used, but maybe I overlooked it. Good luck with your album,
Hans

Oh, my, the beauty in your writing is something I'd prescribe to all, Hiroshi. Gloriously done --the whole album! I'll be back to say more with each song you post. In the meantime, I'll revisit your music often, but will revisit Kyoto daily. Thanks.

Based on Janice & Bud's review I listened to Reminiscence which is indeed stunning as they stated.
Lovely piece beautifully composed.

Hans Hi Hans, Thank you for your interest in my album. I understood you meant those instruments included in the BIAB package by BiaB-instruments. As you know, BIAB is not something self-contained in its small world but is open to the external world. The good examples are VSTi support for the instruments and DAW plugin for co-working with the external DAWs. I use Cakewalk Sonar (now Cakewalk by BandLab) as DAW and Rapture Pro / D-Pro (Dimension Pro) for the instruments. For example, the flute is included in D-Pro, more specifically in its Expansion Pack 1 under the name of RGC Flute In The Venue, which is my favorite. This kind of information is included in my post about the individual song. Hiroshi
