Haha..funny tag “bach2thefuture”.
So, if the movie was made today Marty would be traveling to 1983. The movie was made in 1985. Feel old yet?

This is a hit, duckett! I love the arrangement, the warm, nostalgic synth sound in correspondance with Anchors voice and the great midi-files of concert-pianist Carosone. The whole track touches something in me. That doesn´t happen too often. Bravo!

I can visualise it now.

Jaff’s gone back to visit the old country and pops into the Notre Dame Cathedral. Music plays and he wanders around searching out his favourite spots. As he walks he sings to himself. A nearby tourist hears and switches on his mobile recorder (CD quality of course!)capturing the magic of the moment!!

I take your point on the pitching between the sounds and I think it’s fair to say that any similarity between the two is mostly coincidental:)

That said it’s a great piece and has a magical quality about it.

A “Per aspera ad astra” case then. Which I think means something like “Through challenges towards the stars” but I’m not sure. Brilliant idea and I totally echo Shelflife’s visual associations. Quality music.

They fit well, I’m so pleased that you used the midi with your own tempo and sound.
