MICHAEL JAMES - INSTRUMENTAL SODA POP selections with added text

01 - NEW LIGHT

The concept of a new life with hope and love abound, a leaving behind of the heartaches of yesterday.

02 - MAJESTY

In dedication to the precious memories of Princess Diana, 1 July 1961 â 31 August 1997, and Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, 4 August 1900 â 30 March 2002, who are no longer with us but left us enriched by their everlasting Majesty.

03 - ALONE AT HOME

Where a musician's mind wanders to when alone at home.

04 - PATTERNS IN THE FUNK

What your hands and feet do when you get rhythms in your mind and body.

05 - LOST VOICES

When in the back of our minds the choir voices start to sing.

06 - SMOLDERING IN THE DARK

Smoldering in any form, passionate, angry, hungry, lonely, longing,....

07 - MY PLEASANTVILLE

I wrote and recorded this in the early 1980's and when I saw the motion picture "Pleasantville", released in the United States on October 23, 1998, I heard sounds that reminded me of this piece so I decided to re-title this selection "My Pleasantville" in honor of the great Randy
Newman, composer extraordinaire, of the "Pleasantville" motion picture score.

08 - C MINOR JAM

Jammin'

09 - MELLOW MOVES

Like in one of my favorite films "Contact" when the father says to his young daughter character(later in the film played by Jodie Foster) to make "Small moves, Ellie, small moves" this piece is an example of making small, calm moves.

10 - SMOOTH MOOD

Smooth bass mood, a groovin' bass pattern, just kickin' back and gettin' into a groove.

11 - JUST MESSIN' AROUND

The result of a lazy afternoon, just messin' around and not gettin' too serious.

12 - OUT ON THE TOWN

Walkin' around downtown and just movin' with the motion of the city.
