Frozen Tunes

Yesterday morning, I awoke way too early in order to organize Deep Freeze 07 - the first autocross of the 2007 SWVR season. Mother Nature intervened - the area's first measurable snowfall included a good bit of frozen rain and sleet as well, making regular driving - much less autocrossing - a very dicey proposition. Event cancelled, I was back home by 8 am with time to kill. So, I put together a new tune in honor of the occasion, "Frozen Rain." Gave me a chance to play with my Native Instruments FM7, a soft-synth emulation of the famous Yamaha DX-7 (and related devices). Very cool stuff.

BTW, except for the drum loops, everything else in this tune sprang from the fingers of yours truly.
