This was a rapid sketch of MLK I made back in 2012. I believe I may have later used it in a song video I created called "It Takes One Drop".
I have included the song here as a podcast and also provided the video here for your viewing pleasure:
It Takes One Drop
I completed the rough draft of a new song today. This podcast provides a demo of the main riff section which was sound designed using two tracks and two fast synth leads as starter material which I tweaked to match the song needs. They both had different, cool and complimentary timbres. One is off my Kurzweil called fifty-fifty lead and the other is a Native Instrument sound called Evolve/Analog Vari-Pad. They scream along nicely. What do you think?
The song itself will most likely be published in about 8 months as I have other songs in the queue ahead of it now. I was having a blast with a software called Melodyne which can change your voice characteristics. This is not featured in the demo but suffice to say I laid it on way too strong while developing the song. It was so much fun to play around with my voice, I did get carried away with it probably to the song's detriment. Oh well. Sometimes you just must play and learn as you go.
Thanks
Dave

Greetings, I have created a podcast on Pandora radio that discusses the making of my latest album "Your Corners Curve Like Lemonade". I understand that many of you do not use Pandora but for those who do here is a link to the podcast: Pandora Radio Podcast
I am also excited to announce that I recently completed a new song called "Wave". I am still making final mixing and mastering tweaks on this but I hope to release it some time in the next three weeks. Here is a snippet of the song to wet the appetite. Just click this link: Waves
Also, feel free to check out some of my Spotify playlists which you can find at the top of my home page here at this link: Home Top. It features some of the music that caught my ear this week and I update it about once every two or three weeks. The inspiration for my own music comes from things happening in my life, the world around me and also through the music I listen to. I find this music on my own but also through friends like you. Thank You for sharing a moment with me in my music development journey. I appreciate you and please let me know what you are listening yourself. Sharing makes the world go round. Thanks Again.......Dave
I am back with a new musical offering. This song is called Echo Chamber. It is edgy and unique.
Here is a link to the Music Video: ECHO CHAMBER
We must listen beyond humanities incessant noise and cruelty for that quiet space between the echo where courage, strength and good-will bubble just below the surface ready to rise. A world cacophony rendered mute by a love so bright you can't help but be thawed and tempered in her slow alchemical, warming embrace.
This song speaks for itself and conveys what I feel at this particular moment in history.
Do Not Despair My Friends and Never Give Up
Peace
