Finally had time to listen to these.

The first half of Beatus seemed very hesitant and there were some rather
suspect bass notes (might be due to the nature of the sound you used), but
afther the halfway mark the whole thing seemed to pick up considerably.

Dragonride seemed much more polished and well rounded. A very enjoyable track.

Letter to the Minnesaenger was an interesting exercise, and I liked the
multiple arp and tune threads but something like this, heavily quantised - as
I suspect it was - tends to sound rather mechanical. Fine if that's your
intention but my personal preference is for music that 'breathes' more, if you
know what IO mean.


Anyway thanks for sharing :)

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
