    NEW AGE? I was asked by a start up independent film company to come up with a NEW AGE AMBIENT instrumental. THey didn't want it to sound to techno. THey wanted earthy sounds. I wrote this. THey use it for their logo when ever their films are played...a planet goes by and use part of this theme. I incorporated my Native American Heritage to play lots of native drums, and used my keyboard. I brought one of my favorite Classical Compers, CHOPIN into the theme. I'm quoting with my voice and piano a theme from one of his Nocturnes. Chopin's sexy....and PS my son ROCKS on drums...so I'd probably just ask him to play next time.
