In case you want to hear more of my music and ideas that I built through the years, I advise you to visit YouTube and go for 'MrRielity' or Leslie Riel.
You'll find over 200 music-videos I have uploaded until now for you to see and listen to.
A small impression of what I am doing :
I am composing, producing, arranging and playing since 1974/1975 and to give an impression to others (like you) and for myself not to lose the idea, I recorded my ideas very quickly as 'quick sketches' (no longer than 4, let's say 5 hours work in total) doing in 99,9% of all occasions all instruments including guide-vocals myself.
All rhythms of my home-recordings are least thought of, just functioning to set the idea, because I realised that when it will be recorded as a final-product-production (a real record), a real drummer will be unavoidable in my opinion to get out of it what I want.
Except for a few tracks that were done in a real studio (late 80's), the stuff you will hear is demo-material, either done at home under vintage
circumstances (recording on an old 4-track cassettedeck) or done at friend's places on the computer.
For now, don't be too critical about what you'll hear, because it's all about the songs and melodies that are hidden in these registrations.
As a first introduction to you, I already have added 17 tracks to this page, so that you can get an impression of the ideas that I carry in my mind, and hopefully one day will be re-recorded in a more modern way, with my own selection of fine musicians in a suitable studio.
Forgive me that I have not added any specific information about each individual song (.. for you to know the story behind it) and how it all occured, but as you can understand, with so much material and ideas on the web already (...and all that's still to come), it is almost impossible to do and would take to much time.
That's why, in case you are interested in some side-information, I ask you to visit YouTube (MrRielity). On YouTube I have added some short information to each song I uploaded.
Have fun!
Well, in 1984 I was blessed with a golden album for my contribution (co-writing and playing) to the album 'In The Heart' by Kool & the Gang.
'Alright' was my first own enterprise studio-recording (1986-1989), which I released as a record in 1989 on my own label, Million Records.
If you hear something you like or you want to say something about, I would appreciate it if you'd let me know.
I would love to get some feedback,... good or bad.
Than this for all you young people out there!!!
I am there for you.
In case you are playing, singing or making or creating music yourself .....and you are working hard and more than sincere about your own musical carreer, I want you to know that I am always there if you need me for advice and/or even support that is within my capabilities to offer.
Finally, I am interested to meet with an intelligent computer-wizard with excellent musical ears to become my partner and home-engineer for future album-projects.

Keep in touch ....
Love and peace to everyone,
Leslie.
