I started writing small musical compositions for myself 17 years ago. Those earliest compositions took days to compose. The effort was exhausting.

I know lots more about music now and have written tools to help the process along. Of the 80 sounds cellared here, two thirds were composed in the last two years. Nearly all of these recent compositions were composed in an hour or two using a Macintosh music composition application, Vox, that I wrote in my spare time.

Wayne Shorter, John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, Elvin Jones, Tony Williams, Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, and Ornette Coleman are my heroes in music. Most of these tunes were written with improvisation in mind and use a musical language that these men helped to invent. The chord sequences of these tunes ('the changes') are interesting objects in their own right and to my ears are fun to listen to even when the melody is not played.
