Except from our Feb 2025 concert.

Huge thanks to Ferdinando Montecuollo ; I had prepped this demo ages ago, but couldn't figure out how to make the high pitched synth ticking sound, and was stumped on what to do for the rhythm for the "marimba" bridge part; Ferndinando emailed me a copy of the style he used for his YouTube video, and I plugged in his D parts into my style D parts, and his ticking sound onto my style B and C parts.

Basically I'd designed approx 75% of a style and never finished the rest (over a year ago, in fact) and if it wasn't for Ferdinando, I wouldn't have had this piece ready for our February concert!

Also thanks to my high school buddy, JondiMac, who's the one who taught me the 2 handed way to play the bassline, which I've since learned to play just on my left hand. AFAIK, I've yet to see anyone else play the left and right hand parts simultaneously, so there's that! (Look Gary, I'm not actually playing the arranger as an arranger - for the most part, it's just drums, & my left hand and my right hand. The one exception is the bridge (marimba part) where I use the accompaniment backing to add additional arpeggiated chord blocks of chords on top of my 1-5- repeating pattern and pads come in later.
