Hey all,

Thought I'd share a couple tracks from a project I recently worked on. I can't find a away to isolate the Soundcloud tracks, but I'm playing steel and guitars on "Summertime" and "Renegade." My playing is pretty minimalistic here, but I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on this latest attempt to approach steel in a non-country context.

Derek,

Really nice stuff and well played and recorded as well. So glad you are still making music. I remember watching you at the TSGA years ago and thinking what a talent.

Keep it up.

Regards.

Derek...I for one really like to hear steel guitar in different settings and your "minimalistic" approach is perfect.

Yeah, it's minmalistic, and the article refers to the music as "meloncholic pop" - and the steel is subtle but it really adds to the tunes.

Sounds great, reminds me of the Wondermints a bit and Josh Rouse.

Keep up the good work.
