Fun Training Methodology
The approach and speed and push, keeps it all very fresh and enables me to feel fully engaged and driving onwards with my musical ambitions
Nice chord progression. Nice little song.
I liked the rhythm with the inversions. Great idea to play as a soloist or as an accompaniment.
