My first original melody / improv piece. Still pretty rough, but it's something.

I call it... "Winds of Kaius"

Dude, I truly loved that. I thought it was beautiful. I downloaded it and I'm going to use it as my morning alarm. I think I will be a pleasant opener to the day.

Have you tried placing it on a bongo/hand drum or tambourine, to add amplification and resonance?
