This is the first track from our new album, which you can listen to on bandcamp. It's an uptempo instrumental that is meant to reflect its title.

Thanks to those that listen!
John :)

I have put together a film clip using video from NASA (Public Domain) that illustrates the wonder of being 'On The Edge'

Good work. I liked it. It had a Crimson/Makajodama/Focus hybrid feel which gave the track a frantic edge that was most enjoyable. For some reason I was thinking that a violin or electric violin would work on here.

Good work :)

Oh my, that's just so raw and powerful. Nice arrangement of soft and hard parts. Really enjoyed it! How are you doing your drums btw?

Thanks Guys. Much appreciated.

I like the Violin idea, there are some sections that I wanted to add something and violin would be a nice addition.
polyslax:
The drums are played by my brother, however he has an electronic drum set and can choose a 'kit' depending on what's required. e.g. this is a standard rock kit, but one of the songs we are finishing has a jazz kit as well as an 'industrial kit' (this is particularly cool) and another track has a 'gated' full on sound like 'Mama' by genesis.

Updated this track at bandcamp by adding some violin. Some of it is obvious, in first quiet section, some less obvious, end loud section.

Good addition. More of a Crimson/VDGG feel now :)

Thanks. I liked the idea of violin, although I used a cello.
Now all I need is to get a pink floyd feel into it as well. ;)

Added a link above to a video I put together for this piece of music. While the music could be on the edge of anything, I used footage from NASA (public domain) to highlight the wonder of space...

Thanks seismic1. I thought space would be a good match for the track. I was also considering extreme sports/activities and had taken some footage but went with space... :)
