Just love the World Wide Web.

This song started out with just my drum track and nothing else and then....this came up

Reviews are much appreciated

Krispy; Big shout acknowledgements to all the musicians who composed their own parts and did this simple little tune proud.
It's a big moment for me 'cos I actually got to 'play' with RGMixProject - and some 'real' drums for a change.

Lyrics for the hard of hearing:

How deep the seed
How tall the tree
You’ve let it grow
And now you know your fee

It’s so clear
It’s all right
You can stay up all night
Writing Epimetheus’ diary
Keep subscribing

If I were you
I’d hate the view
Found the solution but you never got the clue

It’s so clear
It’s all right
You can burn out the light
Writing Epimetheus’ diary
Keep subscribing

It’s so safe to comply
When you neatly justify…

Really good stuff!

I like the change at 1:35 and then the harmonies on that same part when it comes back around toward the end of the song! I think you could have had them sing that same part UNDERNEATH the chorus: "Writing Epimetheus Diary" at the end of the piece, and it would have worked nicely. Or even alternating the two parts as a "round" a la "row, row, row your boat".

But well done!

Should be in a movie about Knights, or dragons or well, of course... maybe something mythological.

Clever title btw.

Whoa! I really like this RG! It's haunting, yet lively. Very nice lyric, too.

How did you set this up, man? Nice bit o networking!

I'm checking out your other tunes, as well. Are these new? I haven't heard "On The Edge," but I like it muchly! Nice use of the autotune, which I usually detest, but it works well, here.

I remember "Disgusted," though. Beautiful piece.

I love your percussion work, btw. Wish you were closer. You have a nice touch & a good ear for "outside the box" melodies, RG!
