A wonderful blend of smooth jazz, funk, dance and world music centralized through the piano, acoustic guitar and the occasional synth lead..
ALL of the compositions you hear here start with one simple truth - without God, I could do nothing but because of HIM, all this is possible! Each and every effort is a serenade to Him, as I owe Him every song. Over the years, I've learned new things about song composition and have always been willing to push the boundaries of sound. I was trained as a musician and recording engineer as a child, learning to put together melodies when I was only 7 years old. This was at the height of jazz fusion where lead instrumental improvisation was king. Although I was trained early on to read and write sheet music, this improvisation has shaped my writing. Now, I write from my heart. The songs represented here are the culmination of my ventures. Each new song is a lesson in itself as I am a never ending student of music, sound and the new and emerging recording processes. As you listen, keep in mind these are my intimate conversations with God. My conversations are sometimes upbeat, sometimes somber, but never boring. In all, I share these songs so that you may enjoy the music.

Story behind the song
This was an experimental song that a friend of mine coaxed me to do. I hadn't tried doing a more symphonic song in a while, so this is what came out (first try!).

Hello Arlen, I really don’t know how I missed this one. A splendid infectious piano melody weaves though this superb tapestry of ambient orchestrated music. The angelic soundscape is superior in creation and rendering. It is remarkable how you are able to bring the right elements/phasing into your songs to compliment each other…really remarkable. 5+ Stars

This is my favorite of the bunch, has a great structured base to build from. Love the orchestrations and dynamics, good use of instrumentation. Percussion fits just right, deserves several listens, memorable, Highly Recommended.

You know I'm a fan of this kind of ambient flow. Once again, the piano dreams its way through a thick cloud of reverie. Everything is weaved together perfectly in this piece. Excellent work!
