A Past Life

We lived in New York City for four wonderful years. I had at one point intended to put together an impressionistic collection of solo pieces based on my NY experiences. While that didn't work out, most of the tunes were resurrected into a lullabye project which I recorded for my daughter. These tunes are now available for free from the internet archive. See link below.

As this was my first real upload to the internet archive, I neglected an important detail: Song order! So the tunes are listed alphabetically. I don't think it makes much difference, but I did create the project with a kind of flow in mind. If there's enough interest, I will re-upload the tunes, or else post the original song order.

Another important detail: These tunes were compressed using FLAC, and will in most cases have to be decompressed prior to being listened to or burned to CD. The software is free and easy to use. Please follow the link provided over yonder in the sidebar. The advantage of using FLAC is that it is a lossless compression, which means that you get to hear the music exactly as it was recorded, as opposed to MP3's and OGG's. However, the good people at the archive have indeed provided MP3 and OGG versions for those who do not care to use FLAC. So you win either way!

Follow the link to the project site at the Internet Archive and enjoy!
