I agree with all comments so far.  It's certainly not the best.  I got
into that one as a mixing exercise.  It took a long time to finish.  It
started out as jam196 and was at the mixing stage for a long time.
Things were removed, things were added.  The guitar at the end part was
added recently.

As a musical creation it does not have the inviting groove, the warm
tones, or even the strangeness; it does not have what it takes to make
an artistic statement of some sort, to bridge to the listener.  It rides
on the surface. I do like the way it ends, though.  I also like the
grittiness of some theme synths before the solo.  However as a mixing
project it's something else.  Lots of technical details, it was a good
experience to learn some more.

jam12 has become mystifying for me.  As if somebody else made it.  How
can I take the time today to have so much space in the groove, so much
leeway between the notes while still retaining the essence ?
Everything seems so much more compressed.  OTOH I do have a lot of
sketches that can be developed and some of them do have a bit of the
same feeling of space.

Hopefully I will not do too many of those pieces in which there's so
much work and not enough play :)

Thanks again for the comments,

Cheers.
