Hey there, cool, ominous tension building in this piece. The accordion sample sounds pretty synthy though, do you have access to any other ones?

I had the same feeling as rob3rto. There are some cool tension passages. But the accordion doesn't sound very real, to my ears anyway. Not that I'm an accordion expert. And I know what you mean about that edit button on the Taxi site πŸ˜‚

I'd be tempted to set this music to a video of a guy trying to blow bubble-gum bubbles through his clarinet...
then I guess that'd be considered a Dramedy Cue.

Yeah, return. Not organic enough and later in the track too much distraction from the accordion.

Expected that. :)

Anyway, this piece will be recycled with another instrument! ;)

Thanks for listening & commenting, Jim. I threw a new sample into the mix (see/hear below) - any better?
BTW, I am going to be in IN over Christmas. Near Plainfield, but I think you're further up, right?

Yep, I'm up in the NE corner. Sorry about your return on this one, but hopefully it will find a home on down the road.
