    @@morbidmanmusic Hello, certainly not a Mozart or Beethoven and I would never profess to be anything close but judging from your two comments on this video thread it seems you completely dismiss the point of my approach (which is totally fine with me), but as a courtesy to you I'm sending this link of my classic for you to listen to (hopefully with an open mind) so as to better understand where I'm coming from.

    @@KipWingerTV this is great. And there's no point in comparing. I've noticed you were interested in Steve's approach to combining a rock band and an orchestra. Are you familiar with Van Dyke Parks's work in Silverchair's Diorama and Young Modern? Although not "composed for an orchestra + band" per se, rather than "orchestrally embellished", I believe it would inspire you. Lots of good stuff in there. Great conversation, cheers.

    Greetings Kip and thank you for making time to engage in thought and conversation about the subject of Music with none other than Steve Vai! A couple of observations from my end on the subject. One of my fave quotes is: "Meditation on the Word of God is the highest form of worship." For me at least, as long as I continue reading my Holy Bible, I continue to get revelations and new ideas for what to write and create, which I largely execute in the form of both melody and lyrics. It is rare that I ever end up with a poem, or instrumental, but I have those as well. It makes everything so much easier than not knowing where the source of my creativity is birthed from. Short version: It comes from the One who made the universe and put into motion Audible Light to support His intelligent designs. Another, is that finding my quiet place can be difficult sometimes, but again - I can when I ask God to help me quiet my mind, so I can experience His peace. For those who struggle to experience what peace is, one way to complete an exercise anyone can. First make the statement, preferably out loud: God, I belong to you! And, if needed repeat it as much as is needed. Don't be in any particular hurry, just be still and wait on His response. I and others have done this, and every time someone new has, it is nothing short of amazing! You may literally want to take notes afterward. In our society it can be really hard to turn our thoughts off, but quiet is just the absence of noise or our own thoughts.Peace is a absolutely achievable part of that process. All the best, Lee Bond II singer and songwriter of the band Hekia, an abbreviation for HE knows it all!

    Before ever having known that your piece was entitled Still Small Voice your description of requisitioning the universe for your needs reminded me of the first, and likely most successful, time that I performed that same task. It was for the purpose of confirming the existence of God to a friend and atheist. The confirmation was obtained in a dream under hypnopompic paralysis and yet a still small voice urged that I understand that my request was in vain and thusly only half fulfilled but to the extent that it served as proof to the skeptic. The way you describe it as a "download that sort of hits you" is an amazing confirmation of experience. Thank you for risking ridicule to share the process of obtaining enlightenment.

    Fantastik conv. I've always enjoyed Steve's Philosophies on life, music and spirituality. Your angle on the interview is a refreshing twist on the normal convos we get. Putting the energy out and getting the energy back is a deep spiritual concept and its pretty cool to see two big musical geniuses talking about that. Great interviews. I've always been inspired by your musical journey and talent and by your peaceful thoughtful personality. Much different than the 'rocker' personae that MTV creates as an image. Very cool.

    Really enjoyed the direction of your questions! Great concepts-the infinite creation of music, "seeing" the music, dreaming the tunes, putting your requests out to the universe, melody never being boring, stilling your mind in the evening to expand your universe in composing. Interesting how he originally "got" music & his description of realizing all the colors at his disposal. I just discovered an amazing poem by Robert Frost that I related it to immediately, "The Aim was Song". Beautiful, it's basically about the wind learning that it was always meant to be song. Great stuff, thank you!
