Hi Jason,

I really like your pieces (listened to the 'pale horse' as well) They are sort of monotonous in a minimalistic sort of way, but still there is enough development and small harmonic surprises to make you want to go on listening. They are definitely worthy of being 'pushed out into the open'.

I guess the constant fast accompaniment patterns are part of your style. Nevertheless, I would like to hear a piece of yours with more varied texture and rhythm.

You have a good grasp in this minimalist style.  This piece always maintains a sense of direction and you manage to create focus and interest using harmony, rhythm and phrase. 

Do put more of your music in the open.
Made a Liszt. Need new Handel's for Soler panel & Alkan foil. Will Faure Stein on the way to pick up Mendels' sohn. Josquin get Wolfgangs Schu with Clara. Gone Chopin, I'll be Bach
