Welcome Music Lover:
Since the early 70's, I have at times, composed small scale musical works and audio creations . When I did this, I followed my heart with no concern about the monetary value of the work. Whether it would sell to a mass audience or not. I simply loved to be in the creation bubble. The building of something beautiful, artistic with sound and music.
Stephen Jones
* Below are a few of my newer musical compositions and audio creations for your listening pleasure. I hope that you will enjoy them as much as I did when I created them!
"Chambers Of The Deep & "Zilla Thrilla" were created using the new Mixcraft 6 / 7 Pro system with a Alesis Midi Keyboard.

About my older creations / compositions From 1990 Thru 1997
The recorded works below were recovered from an audio cassette of an album I produced called "Out There With Me".
For a long time it was the only known recording of my original compositions that had been mixed down from the advanced Ensoniq production keyboard system I used throughout the 90's. Eventually my keyboard system stopped working and it would be a number of years before I would be able to get new parts, fix the unit and play it once again.
All of the music compositions below were originally created on the 24 track Ensoniq VFXD - SD Keyboard system,
and every instrument voicing was played and recorded track by track by Stephen Jones.
The Ensoniq VFXD - SD keyboard systems at the time were considered far advanced in concept.
Sadly - I believe this led to their short life time as a viable product.
I spent many months learning how to use the Ensoniq system before I could do anything meaningful with it.
The company was eventually bought out by Creative, Inc. and their keyboards discontinued.
My recordings are not perfect. There are a few flaws. However it is my fondest wish to once again take you "Out There With Me"
