The Utility of Virtue
The Utility of Virtue is a 1:29 piece written in G starting in 4/4 time and sliding into 3/4 time. And then we go back to 4/4 time again at 130 bpm. This piece was sitting in the vault since May 5, 2019 and it could not be contained.

Left Foot Forward
Left Foot Forward is a 1:41 piece written in B major in 4/4at 120 bpm. Funny thing about this piece is, it was written on the first day of 2019 and came to life one year later. It is a simple little piece with a cute F♯ to F♮ at the end of the 2nd 6th and 10th measure repeated 4 times. It is a keeper.
