Couldn't sleep last night, so hopped out of bed and recorded this "stream of consciousness" piano improvization:

Fairly dodgy in places, and directionless, and most of the transitions are graceless, but it shows I enjoy playing something other than just Mike's music too!

Oldfield-esque to my ears around 0:45 to 0:52

(What's the diff between:
- Oldfield-esque
- Oldfieldish
- Oldfieldian)

Probably because I played a dominant 7 chord with a suspended 4th, which is the trademark sound of "Incantations". An unintentional resemblance to Mike there.

One part that was intentional later on in the video is when I played about 3 seconds of "Clear light" from TBII  :D
