Playlist,Ranting And Random Thoughts

Yes ooh yessssss!!!! In today’s mail my orders of two cd albums and the replacement book. Is here. The book is in complete printed pages. The two Clive Mitten albums Tales From A Misspent Youth Volume One & Suite Cryptique: Recomposing Twelfth Night 1978 - 1983 so my planned schedule is now thrown off course and I’m going to add the two albums listed above to my playlist.

Well it’s Saturday it’s freezing cold here and it’s not supposed to get much warmer today. Plus no literature, movies or music this morning oops, that’s not good at all lol. Gotten an absolute busy morning so all three interests will have to wait till later today. Need to plan a play/watch and read lists. Ooh yes I’m a list writer lol…

Clive Mitten - Transcriptions is. A incredible masterpiece imho. Just been listening to it on Bandcamp.

Headphones back on and listening to Clive Mitten - Tales Of A Misspent Youth Volume One (2cds) disc one playing right now. It’s definitely different from most covers albums. But it’s extremely well worth the time spent listening to it. And the covers chosen are truly imaginatively rewarding. Due to Clive’s ability and creativity and his willingness to choose the musicians he would like to work with. Plus the addition of the orchestral sound’s gives it, its unique qualities for the listener. Which if given the chance would become more interesting with the addition of your composing mind and music as one. Sheer curiosity flows through the interior of the album.

Disc One
1. Shine On You Crazy Diamond.
2. Jeux Sans Frontiers.
3. Tubular Bells (side one)
4. Ruby
5. Supper’s Ready

Disc Two
1. Echoes
2. Solsbury Hill
3. Countdown
4. La Villa Strangiato
5. School
6. Bloody Well Right
7. Xanadu
8. Living In The Past
9. In The Cage Medley

Thought it was dinner time but oops it wasn’t it’s only 11:40am.

This is on my wishlist

This is a number one must’ve album on my WishList oh yes.



Transcriptions is Clive’s brand-new and first purely ‘classical’ album. Previously Clive has given orchestral ‘re-compositions’ of various Twelfth Night tracks (Suite Cryptique), and then to the progressive sounds that soundtracked his teenage years (Tales From A Misspent Youth – Vol I).   However, this time is it the world of traditional classical music that Clive has reached into for his latest release where he has interpreted some well-known and well-loved classical pieces. All the music was arranged (transcribed), programmed and recorded by Clive in his London home September 2021 to September 2022. Transcriptions is being released as a double CD in November 2022.   Transcriptions by Clive Mitten: Eight pieces for pianos and orchestra   constructed by Clive within Logic Pro production software utilising multiple orchestral and piano sample libraries programmed from controller keyboards taking orchestral scores, transcribing them for piano, then arranging them for piano and orchestra

Right well I’m in a more comfortable frame of mind than yesterday so. I’ve got a great feeling about today and the music of Clive Mitten’s Tales From A Misspent Youth is. Improving my mental mindset even more so that’s a. Huge achievement in its own way. Sorry about going on about the music of Clive Mitten but. It’s so imaginative, spontaneous, orchestrated and beautifully uplifting to not go on. About it. Add the facts of the progressive element and it’s perfectly reasonable for me to wax lyrical about it. Right now the Genesis Medley is playing wonderfully exquisite to the ears. Couldn’t be more happier…

Mmm well I’m totally dropping for sleep, so it’s taking my meds and then. Sleeping time so. Goodnight everyone…
