The Gift...

[David Sprouse]

....is time  I made a little video to go along with this 1 minute song.

Nice piece, the plucked strings sound a little constrained, perhaps a tad more reverb on them to let them breath a little, but what do i know.

I liked what you have here - but I think it needs further development - I enjoyed it while it lasted, but a bit short in length.

Thank you Douglas!  I made it short in order to give the listener back his time.  The shorter the piece, the better reviews I get. :D:D

Thanks wookie.  The plucked strings are actually an instrument called a wassolou balafon.  I drenched it in reverb because of the video, in the cavern.

Hi David

I eagerly clicked on this thinking you'd done a cover of the Velvet Underground track, but no, something equally as appealing  and all your own !! I really enjoyed it, could have been a bit longer but still enjoyed it

Thanks

I like the motif & minimal but effective use of orchestration. Enjoyed it.
