About Me (MUST be more than 10 words to be approved):
I am an independent musician with a deep found affinity and love for new age music and all forms that it is varied from or that vary from it including melodic trance, Celtic, light jazz, dance, good techno, and so much more. It all started in 1986 when I was visiting my father. We were driving up the rough and rugged logging roads of the British Columbia coastal mountains in his old beat up Isuzu. He pulled an audio cassette out of the console and popped it into the tape deck...

Hey there! Everyone is asking- 'Where are the photos of Jason's studio?' Listening to Great Bear and it sounds good...

Hi Jason. How's things? Have you been up to much composing lately? All the best, Alex

Great Bear, Soames Hill, Glen Onoko are all very pleasant and I'd be happy to have them playing in my car when I drive. They are very good symphonic orchestra pieces. If each one were shortened and became movement 1, 2 and 3 of a single piece, I'd say you had something spectacular.
Fanfare for good times? The over-all feel for me is one of low-level unresolved tension. I am not a big fan of the whining oboe (or is that a bagpipe) .
Water under the bridge grabbed my attention in the first few bars and I was quite happy with it throughout. It really made me want more. It appears that the sound is a loop repeated three times. If each repetition added something like a counter melody or change in tempo to indicate a change in the 'type of water' it describes (example: rapids, small waterfall, still pool), I would want to buy it. This one for me was the best single piece.

Hi Jason,
I've been out of the loop for a while, figuring out how to do things in real time. (eliminating latency). I'm listening to and greatly enjoying Great Bear Rainforest - nice work.

Nice Jason! Its good to see other people using hardware around here! We're a dying breed man!! Lol! Are you going with 1/4 in. jacks into the recording device? It really has a warmth to it that you just don't hear as often anymore. I really enjoy it. Great work!

Hi Jason. After a second listen I have to ask, Are you using software or hardware? Some of your patches have a groovy analog warmth to them. Very cool!
