Description
I originally submitted this song during my first year at MacJams (04-05). It was remixed in 2007, and then mastered in 2008 by I. Spike for my album, "120".

What a long way I've come from this time in my life. "Mama Cries" was written about my struggles being a single mom of twins WAY back in 2004. My next song is going to be about my struggles being a wife & mom and having zero time for music and MacJams. :-)

I miss you all. Thanks for including me on the MJRF! Thanks to I. Spike for his brilliant mastering skillz. You can buy this on iTunes and help me send my twins to college some day. haha!

This is one of my favorites.
When is your album coming out? Know what songs are going to be on it yet? I like that name.

Don't know much more to say about mama cires other than it is a great classic of yours that I still love to listen to.

I was happy to see the little "Miss Chaos has posted a new song" notification pop up. I thought FINALLLYYY :). Even though it is a re-master it is still wonderful to hear.

Delighted ...
... to see you back here MissC!

You have a special gift for hauntingly sad melodies which are somehow so sonically resonant they're soaring and uplifting at the same time. This piece is gorgeous and the production is immaculate.

Is the album available on CD or is it download only?

Among people I really miss...
...there you are...

In my own weird way, I'm glad it's marriage and twins taking you away and not anger, resentment, boredom or a rare tropical disease...(knock on wood)...

You always were one of those people who made me use the word 'timbre' a lot... You get the coolest timbres out of synths, and your synth excursions always sound like MUSIC and not llike demo tunes for something made by Roland... There's always a vocal quality to your melody lines, and flavor of dance, and you usually have tones that sound half acoustic in there...

Miss you...

Ed

Wholesome and safe for consumption, little tinkles and sprinkles and washes weaving in and out. Well done.

Masterpiece
I can hear that the beat has gotten its time to evolve and complete. And its certanly a mature creation, perfection before quantity.

Its not a sad emotion in this beat, more a spectra of a carousel, with blurry pieces of easy memories.
