I generally link to these in the monthly musical interludes, and also generally try them out. I really enjoyed this one, and the animation really worked well.

Very nice. I also have composed some music of various styles over the years. Currently I'm working on a Linux computer studio setup, I'd be interested in any details you care to share about what you use and play. I know you've been posting music here and there for years, and I've listened to a lot of it.
Thanks for what you do, and Happy New Year.
To: Slings and Arrows
Very nice!!! I enjoyed both the piece and the moody video.
Thanks for posting your work!
Happy new year! 🎊 🎉

Glad you liked.
My entire setup is GarageBand running on an iPhone. If you have any specific questions about anything, though, I’ll be glad to help if I can.

Interesting. I'd never heard of Garageband before; Link for anyone else with interest here...
Garageband for I-phone and Bandlab for Android compared I started off with multi-track tape way back in the seventies, migrated to digital Linux, in the early 20-teens and now retired from any other thing and trying to make a joyful noise while I'm still able.
I've walked many miles, few without some music I just couldn't stop hearing.
