Sorry - two songs in two days - promise I'm not trying to hog the forum.

This one is an instrumental and is for all those that need a little respite from hard times. A very, very small and simple musical contribution from me, in the hope to uplift when everything just seems too much - I hope you like it.

James,

The instruments are peaceful. The drum loop less so...

Thanks everybody!

fj: I did think of the drum loop being incongruous, but decided to leave it in for contrast, if nothing else ... to have SOMETHING to drive the track forward, else it may sound like a dead cat or something ;-) BUT: if you feel it's incongruous still, I'll give it another listen and see.

Thanks everybody - it's been a busy few days, I haven't had much of a chance to listen to everyone else's songs as much as I would have liked, but this will change :-) I'm grateful for your listening time and for your comments!!!

Hi James,

This is such a restful sound. It's raining here in Melbourne right now and, like most the world, I'm isolating indoors. Your music was a perfect fit for the mood I feel today. Thank you or that.

All the best,
Noel

Nice, but the drum needs to come down a lot. Otherwise, well done!

AHHHhhhhhh. Sweet, relaxing changes, James. Thanks for the mood. I agree with you & Floyd about the drum loop. You're right, incongruity brings contrast, and that's a good approach. But perhaps a softer touch would sound more like a SLEEPING cat with at least 8 more lives.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Janice & Bud: thank you - glad you enjoyed it!

TuneMonger: you may have a point about the drums :-) See below!

Marty: thank you - you've given me the heartiest laugh and smile, in the very best of ways, ever since I've been a member on here! Underneath that gentle, jocular manner of yours, you do however have a point ... so I shall definitely look at it again - if only after Easter, though, when I'll get a little time to do so. But thanks for the laughter ... the cat is also very, very grateful ;-)

This is a good song. IMHO if you take out the drums you will have a fantastic ambient song.

But I did like most of this. The only thing I didn't like was the drums, the rest is excellent.
