live @ Dunn Bros. in Keller, Tx. 1/29/10
Took me awhile to get my legs here, as evidenced by the sloppy playing. The bulk of this is the tune "Blue Hour".
Our sun is in a long, cool, quiet period right now. But average ocean temps are the highest ever, and polar ice and glaciers are melting at an alarming rate. Something is going on here.
Opened for Hentai Improvising Orchestra at 1919 Hemphill in Fort Worth. A 26 minute piece, I had to edit it down to this because of some nasty noise spikes on the louder bits. So whats left is a very sleepy piece.
An octave pedal would be fun to play with on the keys too. I have used a wah wah and distortion pedal on some of my songs. You can have two instruments hooked up to this at the same time? O man..the possibilities.. Great work.

this reminds me of an episode of the Simpson's where there was a chili cook-off and Homer had the hottest chili available at the festival. Then, Homer went into an alternate world and a coyote was talking to him, asking him to find his soul mate. The atmosphere Homer found himself in must have sounded something like this.
Nice work guy.
Some kind of rap-music. Made with a little bit tongue in cheek approach. I've filtered the rap artists voice so much that i'd rather leave his name unpublished.
The title came to me as I was listening to the track and was reminded of looking through [Savage's](http://alonetone.com/sistersavage) telescope at a starry sky and us being completely unable to figure out how to get it aligned :)
The title itself…
Basically, Its about being on the road with your band, and having a girl at home who doesn't want you to be in a band. And, just, that whole battle between the life you want, and the one she wants with you.
I've had pieces of this song for years…
Recorded live during the last days of the Red Blood Club in Dallas, this Dennis Gonzalez Yells At Eels song features Stefan Gonzalez (drums), Aaron Gonzalez (contrabass), and Dennis Gonzalez (treated trumpet).
I'm really thinking of renaming the upcoming "Burning Wood... The Bonfire Sessions" album "Stealing Genius." I write something simple, put down some picking at the beginning, some acoustic guitar and some vocals, and send it off to people with…
This is a study on using split keyboards and virtual instrument layering for live performance. More information is here http://chrisvaisvil.com/?p=1050 if you are into that sort of thing.
Also Lucian Freud has died today. I’m using one…

This is a video piece made for the ImprovFriday drone theme event which used my DIY 9 string canon, DIY electrified 8 string psaltery, viola bow, ebow, and fingers. The tuning in unknown – just something I did by ear.
Pictures, streamable video…

Enchanting... :)
Gorgeous interplay between guitar and flute! VERY ethereal.
I'm trying to give this one a listen but nothing seems to be playing for me right now. I'll try again later. I'm sure it's great.
Very cool. Lovely tones!
Love those reverse effects! Cool stuff!
wild tune.
Wish I'd been there. This is great man! Love the way it comes together after about the 6 minute mark. This is a lovely start to my day

Great sounds...
Now, I'm going to start experimenting with my Octave pedal. thanks guy. keep up the good work.
Don't wait for an excuse! Love this!
Sweet and sour stuff.
Use that excuse more often! Great track! w;-)
Man, I love leaving your stuff playing as I just sit back and listen. The diversity of guitar players on here is lotsa fun.

Sweet pickin' there.
wonderful!
My favorite sound, a properly delayed guitar.
Nice groove!
Lovely minimalism. Beauty.
fantastic sonic manipulation. Will have to look up the GB novel.
MTC, ebow yes with two different delays active.
Love these long sonic journeys
really like the extended gtr intro.
Been a fan of YAE for years. Imagine my surprise to see them here.
Great song but that slide gtr is kinda cheesy :)
Still, wow. Never heard of L. Freud, until now. thanks
thanks for that comment MTC..check out Doug Sparling's stuff, which is direct inspiration for this direction I took.
wow. Test successful.
what the..? Cool
I like this dynamic approach you have to your ambient compositions, the scenes always changing.
Great sounds all thru this playlist. Wish you success in your efforts.
this one's right up my street Chris. Nice.
I sure feel better!
very nice sonic imagery.
