This Macchu Picchu music video was created by my friend Milosh on his YouTube channel, Amazing Places on our Planet.
He was kind enough to ask me to create some music for this epic video showing this incredible site in Peru. It’s an awe-inspiring place and one that you need to climb up to see which makes it a kind of achievement as well.
I wanted the music to have some of the feel and tone of the area while still being an original theme that feels universal in its appeal.

Hi Murray. Thank you for the nice feedback and for taking a moment to comment. I don’t currently have a CD of this album as it is in progress. I release songs as I compose them and then once I have enough in the same style I put it all together into a download – then rework them all again and master them into a single package and only then do I contemplate making CDs. Sounds like a long drawn out process hey? Well, it is! LOL. All the best ~ Herrin
