I think you have so much developed your own style, it is actually your style and your voice and there is not so much to comment, so to say, It's just like I listen and I like it and I know it's "Derek" :) Hey that moment at 9.49 where you start something new and special just before the end...and then you end abruptly: what happened? :'(

Thanks pianowolfi. The cut off is due to the memory of my digital piano. I could of course record directly into the computer and then I wouldn't have to worry about that, but the problem is that takes more set up. I like being able to switch on record at a moment's notice. This has a strong psychological effect on me and allows me to catch improvisation when the muse is at its most active. So unfortunately after about 12 minutes it cuts off. This doesn't concern me too much. Sometimes I take previous ideas and run with them again, so that thing you heard might come back in a different form some day  ;)
