Song: Familiar Roads

Listen online:last.fm

Download song: mp3 Ogg FLAC MIDI

As has become typical in my work, this song relies heavily on its mp3 mix for sound quality.  MIDI instruments don’t do it justice. (In other words, please don’t download the MIDI version. :)

I wrote “Familiar Roads” as a simple, catchy town theme – not the typically dull background piece associated with that style of VG music.  I like the instrument mix and pace and am pretty damn happy with how it turned out.  For better or worse, this is the closest thing to “pop music” I’ve ever written. All it needs are some corny lyrics, like:

Lookin’ in the rearview mirror
Missin’ your face
We were so good together
Why did you leave me for that other guy
Blah blah blah
