    Hi all,

    I wrote this song yesterday and finished it today. 2020 was long and rough year. I needed to do something different to get myself to relax and release tension. At first, I started to go down the road of just writing something inspirational and uplifting, but found myself wanted to release almost unsettling and unnerving energy.

    This song probably fits in the category of Hybrid Epic Piano Meditation music. You will find the glorious Steinway leading the way with the Power Drums adding body and additional rhythm. I performed every part in live one at a time. Starting with the piano.

    Not my typical style of music, but it's growing on me and is very therapeutic. I added some soundscapes you can hear like Rain and epic low pulses.

    Hope you enjoy.

    Despondence

    Hi Maestro2be (love the username)

    2020 has indeed been an experience for us all.  Glad to hear that you were able to use music as a form of healing and therapy.  Thanks for sharing your piece.  It's stylistically different than some of this forum's membership gravitates toward, but to me, all music that comes from the heart has value.  

    Keep it up!
