Very poor music

Click on the "notes" graphic to access five midi files containing some very poor music.

But before you do please note the following:

• I can barely play more than one note at a time
• I have to get chord changes from a big diagram in a book
• The creativity required to use programs that let you sequence samples in a mix is equivalent to arranging bits of salad in an attractive fasion.

Mix One: my first hiphop i.e. 96 bpm. Relatively good but too easy.

Tune One: Triumphant, cheery and twee. Like a post-coitus hamster

Tune Two: "Welcome to this corporate launch of the XQ5-9 Fluff Tweeker"

Tune Three: Written By Serge Gorlin, produced by Jon Cobb, not so much giving credit as not taking the blame.

Tune Four: Xylaphoney-Whistles tinkle away, ends up sounding like one of those relaxation tape tunes that sends you bonkers-nutsinthehead

Tune Five: Words written first, tune next. Nearest thing to simple emotion of the lot. The words went:

"Let me sing a little list - of all the things that I would miss - if they were to go away - leave my life and never stay. - The little things that mean a lot - what I have, what I've got - Things that turn my would around - and put my feet back on the ground"

Unfortunately I could think of any "things" to list in the next bit without it sounding like "Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens...."
