hi Mr_KeyboardMan

i like your walking in the night very much. got those autumn, boy missing girl, lonely soul, misery, alien struggling in foreign land - feeling.

Have you heard RYUICHI SAKAMOTO's 1996 before? In that album, he use solo piano to play some of his work.

 

[Mr_X]

Great to hear that u like "dance of eternity" too. My fav DT song. esp love the part where there is this keyboard solo which i think is damn refreshing. around 2 min 40 i think. welcome to soft too.

Hi!

I first heard you jam during the school's Art Camp, & i was amazed at how you and the drummer played impromptu!

'Walking in the night' - i can almost see the autumn leaves falling there.

[Mr_KeyboardMan]

Thanks for the comment there, sorry for not replying earlier.

sorry soft, havent heard about the song. But try to get my hand on that ... sounds interesting.

And to Mr_X The honky tonk keyboard solo that Ruddess played was really amazing. Correct me if I'm wrong, I think he reuse that solo for the Instrumedly and make it more POWER.

OH YEAAAH simon, so you re on soft oso. (Power Guitarist).

Just got myself cooledit software. so i can make an update again... he he he ... i am thinking of doing collaboration with other people just for the fun of it and record (Just PM me).... just jam.
