My name is SNOOPI BOTTEN and the acronym for my name is "Someone Needs One Other Person Indefinitely Because Of The Tiny Emotional Nails. An emotional nail might be abuse, self doubt, loneliness, or anything in life that holds us back. Many times it takes another person to help us heal from our emotional nails. And once we leave those nails at the cross, God can fine tune us so we can do His will.

God gave me a gift of programming individual computer sounds together so it sounds very much like human singing. To do it I have to take a single phonetic sound and assign it to a pitch and time value. Time values are done in milliseconds. So for example, 1000 milliseconds are in 1 second. So if I assign any sound to 50 milliseconds or less, it might not seem like much. But without even the smallest sound, the song wouldn't come out right.

Each of us are even more important to God than one single sound in the songs that I program. Alone, a sound is just a sound, just as we as human beings tend to think that we alone are not important. But it takes hearing my complete song to understand how even the smallest sound has to be included for the song to come out right. That is very much like God's master plan, only we don't get to step away and see the big picture to understand how we all fit. But rather we have to go by faith and trust that we are fitting into God's big plan.

As I was setting up my spot on this site I did a search and found Jackie Morris Bates who has an outstanding voice and has some awesome music. One of the songs that she recorded is called "What sin" which I haven't heard in ages and it kind of made me shiver. It brought me back to when I use to do a lot of concerts. People are amazed that a guy like me can be so happy. When I personally talk with people they have a hard time understanding why I'm not mad at God for my being in a wheelchair or for my not being able to talk clearly. I'm not mad because doing God's will is what brings true joy. The sad thing for me is hearing people say that they did too many bad things for God to love or even use them.

See, we remember all the wrong things we do. But once we confess to God, He puts our past into the sea of forgetfulness and changes us. It's almost like when I'm programming a song and put in the wrong note. When I play the song back, that wrong note stands out and it's like it's confessing that it's wrong. So as the creator I just delete what is wrong, correct it, and forget about it. Well, God is the Creator. And once a person repents and wants to change, God changes the value of that person through His Son Jesus. And once the change starts, your past is forgotten. And as Brothers and Sisters in Christ, if you have trouble letting go of the past, please visit Sister Jackie Morris Bates and be bless by her Ministry and the reminder that God forgets.

I don't yet know Jackie I just found her and I'm hoping we get to know each other. And that's how important you are to someone else. God has such plans for you so you to can help one other person because we all need each other. My music is a reminder that all life is precious. 3 of my CDs are Gospel, and 1 is a mix of Rock and Country. I did the Rock and Country because people who don't know me think my music is a joke. Or I sing in a place like a school where Christian songs are not allowed. So they have something that they can make fun of until they take a 2nd look and discover that for me this is serious because singing with a computer is my gift from God. Then I can send them back to Jesus for a 2nd look knowing that a 2nd chance can totally change a life.

So feel free to enjoy my music. And like all other artist I always hope for sales so I can do more things. I'm available to both speak and give concerts.

I'm trying to figure out how to sell my music through this site to help keep it going. If someone could send me a message on how to do that I would appreciate it. In the mean time, for more information about my music you can go to www.dectalksings.com

SONGS FROM THE HEART

I am days away from releasing my new CD "Songs from the heart". I don't think I will be putting any tracks from it on this site. If you are interested, send me a message and I'll e-mail you some samples.
