Chill A Warm Day on Apple Music

Post by GregC »

My 8 song album, titled " Chill A Warm Day " is available for download/play on Apple Music [ iTunes].

Apple knows me as GregC. In the Jazz category.

Of course, you can still stream for free on my SoundCloud site.

This link will take you to Apple Music Preview. You will need to set up an account.
The 3 month free trial looks good, if you like interesting new music.

Lets Chill !

32 Floor in the Clouds/Piano Suite

Post by GregC »

I composed the basics of this instrumental in 2001.

Today and with Kronos, it evolved into a 2 part song;

32nd Floor In the Clouds

32nd Floor Piano:
https://soundcloud.com/user-898236994/3 ... -cloudswav
[ recorded in 24 bit]

The instrumentals are part cinematic, evolving moods and a waltz.
{ who does a waltz ??? }

I think the above order plays best, 'Clouds ' then 'Piano '.

Hope you like it !

Thanks

Hi Greg,

Very good work. I especially like the first one.

These pieces, as many of yours, would suit well for films soundtracks. It's my opinion.

Thank you, Fred ! I thought it better to record the composition into 2 songs.

I also have learned that keeping songs short is better. " Clouds " is under 2 minutes. "Piano " is less than 4 minutes.

I enjoy movie sound tracks. That interest has influenced my approach.

I appreciate your time, listening to my many songs on SoundCloud. I am at 60 originals. Lots of free and diverse music[ I think ] thanks to Kronos.

I did a waltz a few years ago (the waltz part starts at 0:50):

yes, you did. I heard that :)

I like the horns.

drums are tricky on a waltz. I had to tap out a pattern. I think its ok- still waiting to hear from a drummer friend who has good suggestions.

The Celts??? Awesome! :)

I didn't think anyone but me had ever heard of that album.

I was just randomly perusing this thread and bumped into this. Nice video, and the combi stuff certainly makes it fun.

Thank you Chris, glad you like my little excerpts.

About the Celts album, indeed very few seem to know about this wonderful gem. I think Enya's first three albums are her best. If you go at the end of my video, you will hear another excerpt from The Celts, which I played but with the camera off to show credits. 8)

As you might have seen, on my Kronos I especially like to create programs/combis which offer to play everything in real time, except when I have not enough of two hands and ten fingers.
