Hail citizens!
M'colleague and I are proud to announce the first releases from Julius
Quintus, LAU's least-productive prog supergroup (for which I am entirely
to blame -- the productivity thing, that is, I'm only partially to blame
for the music).
These were recorded at JQ's first recording session (and second ever
meeting) in August 2010, in the UK.
Rough mixes were done three years ago, but they've languished ever
since, basically waiting for me to get my arse into gear. An injury
earlier in the year that rendered me unable to play, together with other
personal circumstances, made it a good opportunity to revisit these two
pieces and finally do them justice.
I'd like to take this opportunity to dedicate these two pieces to
m'colleague, Julien, as a thank you for all the friendship and music
we've shared, and as an apology for being so damn slow with everything.
Those that can, make music: those that can't, make excuses. We have a
good partnership: m'colleague makes the music and I have a batch of
freshly made excuses specially prepared...

Details and other links further below. We hope you enjoy and, as always,
comments are welcomed.
No capes, Persian rugs, curries, knives or ice rinks were harmed during
the making of this music.
Ave,
Julius Quintus
Hmm. Thought I'd commented on these.
However...
I liked them both, but thought 'as a cloud' suffered from being too
'studied',
probably due to the way it was recorded.

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