## Nine Years In Reverse <div class="pull-right">  </div> I grew up with music everywhere. My dad jockeyed discs for a while on the radio and my mom was always playing the piano. I took two miserable years of piano lessons, but at that age I wasn't all that interested. I next tried guitar and had no patience for it. Determined to play *something*, I traded my stereo (that is a thing we used in the past to listen to music) for a drum kit. I stuck with drums and percussion until I joined the Air Force. I became chronically ill several years ago, and over time was unable to do much that I wanted. So Trish bought this Yamaha MOX6 to keep my mind occupied. Way back when I was nine years old I'd tried to write a song, so I decided to try again. This is the result of that attempt to recreate what *had yet to be created* (hat tip to Kenny Loggins for that snippet of line). I couldn't remember exactly how it went, but here is what I came up with. Nothing but strings here. Recorded using Cubase6 and the aforementioned MOX6. I hope you enjoy this somewhat salvaged piece of my childhood. <center> <iframe width="100%" height="300" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/373376930&color=%23282a32&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&show_teaser=true&visual=true"></iframe> </center> <hr> Image Credit: @elianasgarden <hr>

Its really good. As i listened to it, I imagined children running through a forest...probably a magical forest. Ill probably write a story about it someday. I think you should keep making more.

Thank you! As I like to tell people when they ask if I play, "I like to play *with* it." LOL

I really like this! It sounds very playful to me, and with a bit of unresolved anticipation. It reminds me of maybe age 8 or 9 to 12 or so. Maybe doing something you're not supposed to in aunt or grandma's house, or at papa's store. Nothing too egregious, maybe stealing socks to tie a long rope to climb down a bridge by the creek or something like that :)

Definitely angst-ful (is that a word?). I'm honoestly surprised at the reception this has gotten. I may post more of my little tunes. Thanks!

Sounds pretty epic. It could be use in a scene where the actors think he's being followed. Then he look around. There is a suspicious character with a newspaper. Wait, he is taking the bus. What about this city worker? Was he there earlier? Basically music for a paranoid mind and that is a compliment in some weird way.

Thanks! That's kind of what I hear in it. It's nothing like the original piano as I remember it, but when I tried it on the strings... there's something about it, can't put my finger on it. So I kept it. One day I'll understand why this appeals to me LOL. Also chose a strange quantization which changed the perspective I think. I'll post another version I worked up maybe later this week. It's strings as well but is completely different due to the lack of that quantization setting.
