  1. "Theme from Shaft", written and recorded by #IsaacHayes in 1971, is the #soul and #funk-styled #themeSong to the #MetroGoldwynMayer film Shaft. The theme was released as a single (shortened and edited from the longer album version) two months after the #moviesSoundtrack by #StaxRecords' Enterprise label.

  3. Short Songs For Patrons, the first in the series, was released on this day in 2019.

    For this, I produced a unique, personalized #themesong for every person who became a patron, resulting in a collection of tunes varying from #windorchestra to out-of-tune #piano to #chiptune.
