&#13;
Hello all!  After an absence from the Archive, I'm now placing up a new album.  It contains piano-laden pieces I've done over the years I've been doing this, including some that I made specifically for this album.&#13;
&#13;
Here's a listing of each track:&#13;
&#13;
&lt;b&gt;1. My Piano Sings (Part 4) (feat. Joana Smith)&lt;/b&gt;&#13;
Using Joana Smith's "Our Bed" (check her out at joanasmith.net), myself and my group &lt;a href="http://www.tryad.org" target=_blank&gt;Tryad&lt;/a&gt; weave an impressive, melodic, dark piece, stabbing with group member Vavrek's vocals. (&lt;b&gt;NEVER BEFORE RELEASED&lt;/b&gt;)&#13;
&#13;
&lt;b&gt;2. My Piano Sings (Part 2)&lt;/b&gt;&#13;
Created (I think) back in 2004, this was a fun, hopping piece with a bass and a nice rhythm.&#13;
&#13;
&lt;b&gt;3. My Piano Sings&lt;/b&gt;&#13;
The original, made in early 2004 (or late 2003, I can't remember).  Uses a very altered sample of "Claire de Lune" to back it.&#13;
&#13;
&lt;b&gt;4. My Piano Sings (Part 5) (feat. E-Train)&lt;/b&gt;&#13;
Utilizing samples from a friend's first attempt at something, this song sports a piano backing (of course) with strings and a groovy drum section. (&lt;b&gt;NEVER BEFORE RELEASED&lt;/b&gt;)&#13;
&#13;
&lt;b&gt;5. Rain (Fantasia on Gymnopedie No. 1)&lt;/b&gt;&#13;
A reworking of the Satie piece.&#13;
&#13;
&lt;b&gt;6. My Piano Wakes&lt;/b&gt;&#13;
Probably my favorite of the new ones for this album (although that's a toss-up with Part 7), this one is a simple melody against the backdrop of rain.  Perhaps repetitive at the outset, things begin to change and shape a little after the one minute mark. (&lt;b&gt;NEVER BEFORE RELEASED&lt;/b&gt;)&#13;
&#13;
&lt;b&gt;7. Acid Piano&lt;/b&gt;&#13;
Using a small sample from Steven J. Kukla's piano variation of "&lt;a href="http://www.archive.org/audio/audio-details-db.php?collection=opensource_audio&amp;collectionid=StevenJKuklaParisianBellsASmallChurchontheRiverSketches" target_blank&gt;Parisian Bells&lt;/a&gt;," this work sports a strong drum backing with hefty rhythms. (&lt;b&gt;NEVER BEFORE RELEASED&lt;/b&gt;)&#13;
&#13;
&lt;b&gt;8. Death of the Little Soldier (a.k.a., My Piano Weeps)&lt;/b&gt;&#13;
An original piano composition, telling the sad tale of a young man who fought and died in a great war, and is now just a small, frail body lying among his fallen comrades on a forgotten battlefield...&#13;
&#13;
&lt;b&gt;9. My Piano Sings (Part 3)&lt;/b&gt;&#13;
A &lt;a href="http://www.google.com/search?biw=1024&amp;hl=en&amp;q=%22my+piano+sings%22&amp;btnG=Google+Search" target=_blank&gt;favored song&lt;/a&gt; among people who like my music, this needs no introduction.&#13;
&#13;
&lt;b&gt;10. My Piano Sings (Part 7)&lt;/b&gt;&#13;
A strong, powerful piece with layed piano and bass.  I highly recommend you get this one, if no other. (&lt;b&gt;NEVER BEFORE RELEASED&lt;/b&gt;)&#13;
