I'm putting a compilation of my own work together for a colleague who has some interesting conatcts.

In the last year, I have made more than 100 songs, so it is hard, certainly from my point of view to choose what might be the best.

I'm posting a selection of 10 of my favourite pieces here, and I'd like your opinions, no matter how brutal and honest! We all have different tastes, so not everything will appeal to everyone, but I'm generelly interested in what other people think on hearing the tracks for (what may be) the first time. I'm aware soe of you may have heard some of these already though.

Thanks!

Myth

Tomorrow

Red Sun Rising

Corridors

Time & Space

Escape

Synthesis Part Three

Birthline

Aura

Industrial Sky

Hi Alex
For me Aura is still one of your most outstanding pieces of work.

Thanks Peter.

I should add that I don't expect anyone to listen to EVERY piece there, as there's quite a lot!

But picking out the one(s) that stand out for you is helpful to me.

Hi Alex,

My top 3 are Red Sun Rising,Aura & Industrial Sky

Red Sun's percussion made me think of Peter Gabriels Passion

Some lovely stuff there Alex.

It must be hard for you to choose what tracks to put on the comp. My favourites are:

Myth, Red Sun Rising, Corridors, Time & Space, Escape, Industrial Sky.

Your textures are very emotive.

Cheers.

It's always hard to single out what might be the best bits. Obviously when you work on something, you get into it - and it might be crap! It takes others to let you realise that and get out of the bubble and move on to something else! I only put oline the music I feel confident in - although still amateur, I think my ideas come across... hopefully!
