What do I do with this?

I played this at the Linux Audio Conference as a demonstration of how Yoshimi can create multi-layer 'instruments'.

The downside is that it keeps popping back into my head when I'm noodling around the keyboard. However, tiny though it is, it seems complete and not expandable

It's a gem. A nugget. A purpose-built demonstration combining artistic taste and technical excellence.

My opinion: Leave it as is. Quit prodding the poor thing.

Thanks Oren. I guess you're right.
But...
I'm not prodding it, it keeps prodding me

I'm not prodding it, it keeps prodding me

I sense your discomfort...

Why ?
I'm not according with you, I think you can expand this piece, work on a progression, for example.
It's a very interesting instrumental piece.

Thanks for the encouragement Daniel

No doubt I'll pull it out from time to time and (eventually) something will just click - this has happened with a number of snippets over the years.

I agree with Daniel.  Personally I think this is a masterpiece waiting to be finished and that is probably why you don't want to rush it.  The following sections will have to be as good as this one and I am very interested in how in hell you are going to pull that off as this is so good!

Exactly! I'd like to know how I'm going to do that
