Description
Due to many requests, I am reposting my catalog of songs as LMR. A song created in 2004.

A ship sets sail, sailors are warned of the impending danger, warnings are ignored, Sirens lure the sailors to their deaths in the shallow reefs. All software instruments featuring the famous "Mellotron Female Choir" and now, "Mellotron Strings"!Arpeggios up the wazoo! This is a remixed version of the second song I ever posted here at MacJams. After two months, I took into consideration what members had previously said in the comments of the original version. I raised the overall volume, added a little reverb on a few instruments, changed a couple of sounds, and added some more strings. There are more than ten layered tracks at various points in this song. Thanks for all the constructive comments back then, but I could not cut any of it out! No loops. It is all me, one note at a time. PLEASE USE HEADPHONES! Original artwork created in Bryce.

Can definitely feel the influence of the many progrock greats... but there is something else beyond that as well, Very original.

Love that low end, not to mention the dynamic throughout. Jon's connection to this, I don't understand. But this reminded me of something "Topographic."
