I have slightly mixed feelings about this month's upload. It isn't that I don't like the song, it's just that it's not what I really wanted to go with this month. But I'm running low on time here, and if I want to add a new song for August, I must act now.
So what you get is "Revolving Doors", a short, simple little instrumental that I recorded in 1989. Back then, the only way I could multi-track was to record one track, and then play it back on one tape machine, facing another tape machine that was recording while I added the next layer. This is the reason that so many of my songs have a "hiss"-y sound to them. But on this song, I really like the effect that process created. It almost makes it sound like you're listening to something on vinyl.
Comments are welcomed, unless you're just going to tell me that the recording quality could be better. Guess what, I already know lol.

The keyboard that was used was a Yamaha Portatone PSR-16. It had only 32 'voices' but they could be manipulated in a variety of ways to create many different sound qualities. Yup, this was done on the "Bells" setting. :)
Thanks for the comment... I'm really glad that there are people here besides me who appreciate "old school" recordings. ^_^
