This is an intriguing project idea. I'll play around some tonight in my studio and see what key/tempo I'm attuned to these days from those remaining on the list and post later with my choice.

Thank you Joshua! And thanks for the invite.
I am listening to Talassa -Eroica right now, find it very interesting work, nice to listen. I like when you use -is it a berimbau? Also the transitions between parts/ tracks are smooth...wise way to evolve thematically without losing the audience attention. Nice work!
ps: So Tenerife! well I didn´t expect that! do you often come back for holidays or something?

Hello Joshua....Man, you have some truly great pieces here.
So you're not that musical genius who was a child prodigy??? lol....

.I'll definitely keep you in mind for further listening. I listened to quite a few of your pieces. It's hard to find those who have obtained an individual voice!

I have a a lot of respect how you write music. High energy as well as very thoughtful sequencing of musical patterns.
Quite a ride.....

My best....

About Me:
Maybe you are looking for a musical genius who was a child prodigy on the piano and violin and is fluent in english, german, italian, latin, and french. Not to mention, the genius you are looking for has composed for all the brightest gems in Hollywood. *Drum ro-o-o-o-o-llll......Ta-da!*

Well sorry to burst your bubble, because that's not me. In fact, I'm the opposite of all that. I am so opposite all that as to seem an absurd mass of musical contradictions.

This is what I was:
A violinist, double bass player, and pianist; a classical and folk guitarist; a punk rock guitar and bass player; a heavy metal/death metal guitarist; a top 40 guitarist and keyboard player; a reggae/ska/calypso guitarist; an audio engineer; a synth programmer...

And now I am:
A hip, blue-collar Dot-Com family guy who composes music whenever he can squeeze in the time (usually 10PM to 2AM) and dreams beyond his wildest imaginations of making MUSIC his bread and butter. I am currently engaged in several projects, the longest standing of which is in collaboration with M. Bailey (aka 'Fony') on the production team 'Negative pH' which churns out heavy electronica in the pHediacore genre, a mix of DnB, industrial, and metal chops. Simultaneously I compose symphonic music (not exactly classical, new age, or world) independent of any other projects I am engaged in.

What I will be:
A gainfully employed composer of film, T.V. and/or commercial music.
