The Cacophonous World of Professor Whimsey

Ye Olde Faire Knights

Just learning my way around a new library (Garritan's World Instruments), I did this in half an hour this morning. Because, you never know when you'll need a full recorder ensemble!http://www.victorlams.com/audio/Victor_Lams_-_Ye_Olde_Faire_Knights.mp3

Don't Be Afraid

I'm still on my archive.org old 1950s educational film short kick. Here's a new song inspired by one of the films, along with the film re-edited as a music video. The original film meant to teach kids not to be afraid, but seriously -- what kind of lesson is that to be teaching our kids nowadays?And here is just the music:Victor Lams - "Don't Be Afraid"

Repetitive Robot Music

This isn't a real song, just me messing around for an hour or so with some synths and a new channelstrip plugin (TeamDNR's Mixcontrol). If you like repetitive robot music, then you might enjoy this.http://www.victorlams.com/audio/Victor_Lams_-_Repetitive_Robot_Music.mp3

Pater Noster (Latin for Kids!)

There's never been an easier way to learn the "Pater Noster"!I'm not sure what I was thinking when I had this idea, because shoehorning plainsong into one of the most rigid forms of music around was probably not the best idea in the world, but I thought it'd be fun to hear once I'd made it. And I'm pleased with the results.Also -- here is the audio file so you can download it for your iPods:http://www.victorlams.com/audio/Victor_Lams_-_Pater_Noster.mp3

I'd Hit That

Here is a delightful instrumental / percussion amuse-bouche to whet your palate. Nothing too profound here, just playing around with various percussional timbres, whence the title.http://www.victorlams.com/audio/Victor_Lams_-_Id_Hit_That.mp3
