Likely to be track two from 'The Mask' We find ourselves in elementary school, with one of those teachers we loved, getting a bit of life advice. There's a slight foreshadowing of what is to come as she warns us of 'The Mask'.

Seventh Chakra is Neil Numminen, bassist, and audio engineer. OK, maybe a little keys and lapsteel as well.Have you performed in front of an audience?The particular co-operation of musicicians that is Seventh Chakra only performs in the studio to date. We all have different situations that we perform live in.
Your musical influences
Earliest influences that I can recall are the motown hits coming over the radio. Then my mother playing Russian music on LP. Then my brother and sister started influencing me with what they listened to, Yes, Santana, Beatles, Pink Floyd, Moody Blues, Jimi Hendrix. And then the one song that changed my life, made me want to play music , was Edgar Winter's "Frankenstein". After that came Weather Report, Jeff Beck, Miles, C. Parker and Mingus. PFM are still a big favorite of mine.What equipment do you use?

I had a listen to Mask Part 1. It's quite impressive, very creative, well-executed, well-thought-out, altogether a very nice piece of music. Good luck to you. You're invited to our page for a listen if you're so inclined.
Hello Neil--Lap steel? Me too. I'm going to dig in and listen--I'm a fool for that particular instrument.
Cheers,
MH
Neil,
most people are not aware of the bass being more than an instrument only for means of accompaniment but a "melody maker". Now here we have this sad yet uplifting Clapton thing, synth, tiny little bit of percussion and muliptle basses.
Man, how great this fretless sound comes.
Fantastic work!
Cheers from Frankfurt

Neil, well this is different to the Seventh Chakra music, right. But it´s, well...honest! And it is a wonderful piece of music. Thank you!
Hi Neil...
Hey man...thanks for visiting our page...and for your great post! It's really nice to see you back again...you're a standout here at SCS.
Maybe if you get a chance...you might listen to a few tracks we did in your absence. I normally wouldn't ask that of anybody...but I value your opinions...and these are both a bit different from what you're probably used to hearing from us. "The Road Less Traveled" and "Ain't No Hiding In A Digital World" are the titles...and the song info should fill you in on the rest.
No biggy if you can't get to them for a while. They aren't going anywhere. :D
Thanks, bro.
Hugs...Mike (NAV)
