A complex melody at first listen with the unexpected A note. Your tunes are always interesting discoveries. If I were to tab it I could "see" it's "algorithm."

Thanks Janet. When I did my tune project I was hoping to come up with mostly old-time type tunes. I didn't wind up with a lot of those but I did get some unusual melodies that pleased me nonetheless. As you say, this one had a bit of complexity which influenced me in\ choosing the name.

Cool tune Rick! I’ve said it before, but you have a knack for giving each piece the perfect title. I can see the melody as a formulated mathematical equation.

Thanks Greg. I've heard that there's a correlation between math and music, but I guess it's beyond me. I'm glad you got it figured out. :>)

Thanks a bunch Don. Hope you're enjoying the summer breezes down under. So far we've avoided any big snows near the NJ coast here; keeping my fingers crossed.

Yep Ken, quirky is a good description for this one, but cool is good too. :>) Thanks.

You should name your next tune 'Abstraction Layer' - yes, that's a programmer joke! A fine piece Rick and well played! I don't like to mix math and music too much, it's all about emotion to me, unless you are describing intervals or something. Keep them coming!

Thanks a bunch Laurence. I'll leave the math to my oldest son who designs computer chips and my middle son who works with moving data between large databases. I'll stick to the emo as you say, and describing intervals is also beyond my ken.
