Dear Everyone.

Here's links to a couple more recent pieces of mine.

I've read the rules and know what I'm supposed to say now.

Techniques used: Mouse, Music Write Maestro notation software and a lot of thinking.

It takes me a day or two to write a piece - too slow, I know - and then about 5 hours to mix the (censored).

Structure. They're New Age. 'Structure' and 'New Age' comprise an oxymoron.

Obstacles when composing - the ruddy music software. How anyone can design software for writing music that ASSUMES you can't read notes irritates me totally beyond belief.

Everyone told me what new stuff to get, so I did, and it's been tapdancing all over me ever since. Can't even get CLOSE to getting the hang of it - when I do, the stuff will sound better again.
