Everything Talent

On second thought...

So in my last blog post, Iwrote about how I was deciding between two old songs of mine that I could update and submit to the Sam Ash/TalentTrove Electronica competition.Well, I started thinking about a third song and decided to update that one instead. It is called Don't Lose the Groove and a rough mix of the new version is on my profile now. However, I still want to redo the vocals and tweak some things before I officially submit for...

It was a tight race and a well-deserved victory for Dennis.

My actual keyboard playing is very minimalistic because, honestly, I'm just not that good. The only music lessons Ihave ever received are from school band (played trumpet from grades 5 through 8, switched to baritone horn when I reached... (View More)
