6 calm instrumental pieces.
Close your eyes and hear the raindrops.
It's my next mini-album, a little bit longer than "Strange Morning" - it's twenty minutes of musical landscapes. I made these tracks in few days in the end of summer of 2009. It's produced with VST plug-ins - generally I used some Miroslav Philharmonic and Garritan Personal Orchestra there. Title track is album's exception, on most of this track you can hear the live instrument - six string bass guitar. Welcome again in my musical world. Relax and rest with it. You can treat this album as a solution to the problem of insomnia. Monotony in many places of these short pieces is intended too, as soundtracks very often do. So please do not treat this as an entertainment music in any way
Thank you. AG

Adam your music is spectacular, inspirational, like an epic movie, that this music should be.. Like for example Memories. that had everything in it, stirring, emotional, captivating, magical, enchanting, atmospheric-al, spellbinding music. That teases and pleases us the listener.. I was in heaven.. this was my favourite track..
Rainbow..was elegant, charming, emotional, stirring, with violin,piano, captivating, enchanting, sound-scape..
I could go through all the tracks. But to listen is to truly appreciate and enjoy, let alone saviour your artistic-al, musical talent to the full. As I have done.. Bravo.. And thank you for sharing your talents...
All tracks had beautiful, sweetly captivating instrumental music. I liked the sweet little piano raindrops in "Raindrops" to start, before the guitar takes over with the crashing percussions to the sides and after awhile the nice piano voice continues. It creates vivid images for all the senses. My favorite track was "Memories." I loved the piano and instrumentals' great stride like movements, with power, integrity, intensity and insight for joy and sorrow, and depth of life. It was like a walk in the cool morning rain shower with the memories of good and sad and all the days gone by. This music resonates with the listener and may create misty eyes.
Beaucoup d'idées originales, des harmonies intéressantes, parfois grandioses avec quelques illuminations déroutantes (fin de "Remember", "Memories" à 1:37, "Raindrops" à 1:48...). Par contre, je trouve juste que certains sons auraient pu être mieux selectionnés (parfois un peu rèches et trop synthétiques à mon goût) pour être vraiment en rapport avec la grande qualité de ces compos .
Bardzo przyjemna muzyka.
Adam what a beautiful album! Your music is like poetry in motion. Stunning orchestrations that lift the spirits of the listener (in this case ME!) I hear glimpses of musical style bars as well as soundtrack score. In "Memories" I heard glimpses of Leonard Bernstein's New York! What an absolute delight! Bravo my friend and thank you for inviting me to listen!

Greetings from Zino.
cela manque de blues pour mes oreilles mais c du bon
bravo!
Malgré le son d'un piano très mécanique, la poésie et la délicatesse de 'Raindrops' et de 'Raindrops reprise' font de ces deux compositions des instants très suggestifs qui déclenchent immanquablement la rêverie. Entre ces deux averses, et peut-être a cause d'une pluie trop abondante, 'The blue hill' se noie dans la boue. Bon début pourtant pour ce tableau champêtre au sein duquel l'arrivée de l'orgue vient semer le chaos. Pesant, dépourvu de profondeur, l'orage gronde avec conviction mais étouffe toute vision révélatrice. 'Mémories' réserve quelques bons moments très Ravelien, mais trop démonstratif (n'oublions pas que ce sont les non-dits qui donnent la puissance évocatrice), ne stimule pas réellement l'imaginaire. Heureusement, 'Rainbow', après des prémices laborieux, parvient vers 1:30 à renouer avec la magie des deux titres évoqués en préambule. Globalement, un bon album malgré tout, en raison de la pertinence de certaines orchestrations.
addendum: J'ai aimé la réaction de Joe Traxx à ma critique. je vous invite donc à lire ce qu'il a écrit à propos de cet album...
Gordon, fantástico trabajo. Me encantó tu álbum, verdaderamente es música que enriquece el alma y te transporta a otra dimensión, allí donde puedes encontrarte a ti mismo. Gracias por tu aportación a esta humilde oyente que espera oir buena música.
