Hi Kavin, if your new tuning changed the length between the 5th and 6ths fret for instance then, no you could not accomplish this by changing the tuning of the open strings.
On the other hand you can make a small trip into microtonality by retuning the open strings a quarter flat or sharp relative to each other.
acapella vocal loop
In the bleak midwinter
Frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron
Water turned to stone
Snow had fallen
Snow on snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter
Long, long ago
- Christina Rossetti 1872
Maybe I missed a career scoring for no budget spaghetti westerns, because this is what this reminds me of. Done live a couple weeks ago with the Taylor and a floor full of toys and loopers.

When I was a music major one of my friends had a family which ran a funeral home - a well paid profession seeing that they had several cars, maids and butlers - and spent a few nights there. (We tended to stay up to the early am debating…
I was thumbing a ride along a hot, deserted Caribbean road. When Steve pulled up in this vintage pre-war Chevy, I was very grateful. It just so happened he was heading to the same cantina I was, so we kicked back with a pitcher of mojitos…
Last demo for Magic Mike today ... LOL
This is actually a song written by Mike, and I have offered a bit of a twist to it.
Looking for some criticism

All first take improvisations. 8 tracks of madness for your enjoyment. Ear goggles will put you inside this piece. Not recommended for the faint of heart!
Recorded between 9AM - 7PM on the 26th of February.
Featuring Mark Hubbard & Duma, on didj & percussion respectively, this one begins as the most traditionally structured piece on the album. But don't get used to it, it doesn't last long... just enough to ease you into the formlessness…
Naively conceived, written and published in February 2012 for "Contemporary Chamber Music" (vol.1), an RPM12 album.
The titles of the pieces in album are follow each other in a certain order - see album description.

Instant fave! Love! w;-)
Oh my, that's artistic!
@Wildgeas: YAY!
Downloaded - because I wish to cut it in to little loop-able pieces, toss it in to the air and see what happens.
A very sweet rambling acoustic improvisation!
Very nice man, little hints and ideas floating all over in this one. I also enjoyed the harmonic slaps in this and the lead runs back and forth p
Acoustic and rambling.....nice improv J
ah, nice! Makes me want to try an acoustic release this year!
pretty chords, great tone & harmonics!
Nice! I really enjoyed the section with the slapped harmonics about 3 or 4 minutes in
Sweet Guitar tone, nice moves
i quite agree...haven't heard it in a while though.....great stuff
Damn! This is great! I somehow missed this one
Pretty Neat Kavster!
FNG! Texas Magic.
Neat track! Thanks for sharing this special memory!
Thanks, all. A memory blast for me finding this. The store is closed now, of course.
Hate to say it, but I'm old enough to remember that morning.

Have you been listening to Miles' Kind of Blue? I like this.
Very cool, Kirk. More of that!
Thanks Richard, I'd like to hear your Jesu variation too!
One of the most interesting things I've heard here in a while. Like how it starts out slow and whips into a frenzy.
Nice spooky texture. I interviewed for a job at a funeral home once but opted for the hospital across the street.
Hah! Toldja!
Been browsing the (many!) tracks on your album and like this one. I love my Synthstation/iPhone/iPod/music apps!
Yaya! Chapman stick on alonetone! And so well played too.
Nice stuff! Trey Gunn comes to mind.
The guitar drifts away as if in a dream the ship sails into a sunset.
You brought the drone!
Ditch era Neil, even down to the sometimes off key guitar solo. Like much!
Great album. Very cohesive, good performances and production. I'll be returning to often I'm sure.
Great album and esp. like the pedal steel on this one!
Very Tao te Ching Michael,in surrendering you win the struggle.
8 minutes in and digging this musical stream of consciousness! Glad you persevered!
You played all instruments? Dang.
Delay my world. I bet that was fun.
Wonderful album Igor. I love nylon string classical guitar ;)
Sweet song and album Keith, beauty in simplicity!
