Hi, I'm spanish amateur musician, and I'm a progressive rock fan since I was very young. I'm very pleased to show you a little work I made years ago, but until now I had saved it on my hard drive.
I hope you like it.

Lovely, even without the drums. As a musician who has tried to lay down drums as a non-drummer, it is difficult and never seems to sound right. Your track grows very well. More please.

I really appreciate your comments. There are not many progressive rock compositions in my channel, and I really don't understand why. Maybe is because do covers is easier and grateful for visitors.
I promise I will upload more of my work in the future.

I've made the drums for several songs (non of them are updated yet) and I'm quite satisfied. But for this song, I was waiting for a real drum record from a friend. Is a pity he didn't.

I love that synth solo too, both sound and melody :)

Having drums is not a law. It works well also without.

Hi,
To be honest with you all, given the bad state of music today, and the metronomic nature of the majority of all the drummers out there, I'm just glad to see ... no drummer! If we can tell Mike Portnoy to drop his ego and stop doing bad metronome impressions and consider himself a great drummer because of it ... it would be nice!
It's the worst part of the DAW age ... no one can do anything without a clock anymore ... how socially important it must all be, to do it like everyone else!

This. I've done songs with some of the best drummers in the world. They will play without a click, but it's like pulling teeth to get them to do it. Sometimes I make a 'fake' click track that goes along with the free time piece of music and send that to them. It used to be they'd never be the wiser and would just play along. Nowadays though, everybody can dump tracks into their DAW and line everything up on their grid. "Hey, you're stuff isn't exactly synced up!"

This stuff is right up my alley!!! I can listen to this whole night and day!
In fact, I'm trying to make such music myself, but failing miserably most of the time

..... it's just (muuuuuch) easier with a clock, especially if you work alone (many layers), and even for a band recording. Then, I think it pushes some of the feel out, but that's OK as long as you do a lot of LIVE PERFORMANCES

Great song!
This is the kind of thing I compose, but I have no instruments apart from a piano so I just have to imagine any textures I want.

Really good synthesizer solo. My favorite part is the low-key intro. There's very creative harmonizations and melodies which together build a beautiful positive mood without being cheesy.

Lovely little piece! I also love the solo! I could hear some drumming in the second half sounding nice though!

Arrrgggh. I have to hate this...
Playing with a metronome really doesn't make that much of a difference. Barely anyone can tell the difference between tracks with a click and tracks without one that wander accidentally. It's just a stupid old person rant.
EDIT:
Wow lol, in such a blind rage I forgot when metronomes were invented!

I think it's a lot more Genesis-esque, especially the synth solo. But it has twinges of both, i guess
As a drummer, though, I feel like the song is a bit lacking without a nice rhythm. Overall though, very nice little instrumental piece.

Very beautiful! This is right up my alley. Spain is such a fascinating place with some of the most outstanding musician/composers on earth. You are one of them my friend. I have always been drawn to the music of Neuronium and the list is endless. The day you decide to release something, I want to be notified. You deserve a lot of credit. You are great!
