So today I come home from school and start practicing piano. Afterwards I start messing around and playing stuff and all of the sudden I come up with this cool sounding line. So I'm like, "Eh, I'm gonna crudely record this so I can remember this idea." Yet, after I recorded it with my shitty laptop mic, I had the urge to continue this song and finish it. So I got out my good mic and set it up and start recording just off the top of my head. Finished the whole thing in about an hour and a half. It's all made up from my head right as I was playing it, so if you hear a few mistakes or a error in keeping time, you'll know why.

Also, I name stuff the first thing that comes to mind, so I looked out the window today and saw the trees moving in the breeze.

Anyways, here it is. Enjoy.

I make it a policy of mine to write a review to whatever piece of music i listen to on here.not because i feel a responsibility to do so but because the person has taken the time to create such a piece and put it under the scrutiny of all who would listen.

You can tell that this was a spontanious piece,the feel of the overall piece is somewhat harmonic offset by the ruling of the mind.Your compositions have the same general influence as poetry and litrature they tell a story through anymeans they have at their desposal, the image i get from this is one of a leaf being uplifted by a slow gust of wind.The leaf then turns to observe the world below...While observing he has an epiphany of sorts(about at 1:30) the leaf realises that falling from the tree was not the end.That there is More out there all you have to do is look.

Anyway hoped you liked the mini story.
Awaiting your next piece

I've been looking through the classical submissions and I've been quite shocked at some of the piano pieces. This has got to be one of the best, especially if you were playing from memory. As for myself, I always play from memory, I never even learned sheet music. But this, this would be far beyond my skills. You might want to think of investing in a program like Reason or FL Studio, because you would be able to record through midi and fix your mistakes, as well as add more tracks. 5/5

Thanks for the review! I own FL Studio, but I love using my grand piano. Also, most of this isn't just from memory, it's made up as I go along, like a jazz solo. I might go back and re-record parts to get them perfect.
