Music and MIDI Sequences

[from 'A Fine Time (was had by all)', by Bob Baker, © 1996, SeaGoat Music]

Here are some Midi Sequences that I have either developed myself, or worked on with others. A couple are original tunes, and all are in the contemporary jazz idiom. If you have a sound card (and your web browser is set up to play Midi files), you're listening to 'Market', by Bob Baker, © 1997, SeaGoat Music. I have a Roland Sound Canvas daughterboard on an original Sound Blaster Pro 16-bit card, so while I try to produce sequences that will play on General Midi synthesizers, sometimes I can't help but take advantage of the Roland GS standard. I produce most of these sequences for back-up in live performance.

I also play guitar (acoustic steel string and classical), and bass -- that's where I started. There's a great guitar web site here. I'm just getting into digital recording after having produced Rick Bennett's latest CD, Short Stories and Tall Tales last year. You can hear a 26 second (about 550K) snippet of a nice ballad called 'Bitter Wine' by clicking here. 'Bitter Wine' is © 1995, Rick Bennett. Download for personal use only.
