This spooky track utilizes the "Paulstretch" program to stretch recordings of gongs, chimes and bells to 8.04 times their native length: no other effects were made to these acoustic recordings other than to stretch them. The gongs utilized are…

@Bee: Yes, these traditional patterns frequently have a melody of their own, and while it can be varied to some degree, an audience familiar with the pattern (and the dancers) expect to hear that melody.
Otherwise the percussionist had better be playing behind some protective chicken-wire!

@Tess-...I love the declaration "First" here on A.T....it always makes me laugh.
@ Norm- love it. I like the panning as well, and also love the complex pattern build, especially toward the middle. First class A+ percussion.

Artist's description:
Forgive me my voice!
This may be the most difficult vocal part I have written and tried to sing - but the vocal dissonance IS intentional.
Everything here (except vocals of course…
To the Wind baby!
Thanks for the vocal on this Mark bro!
You inspiered a band name....

This was Done on Logic.. Hope Y'all like it.
Peace

I loaded Sonar with a couple audio tracks + echo and recorded my wife's seagull acoustic via a dean markley soundhole pickup.
After the take I multiplied a couple times and edited a touch.
This is really just a test for a planned piece like…
3 guitar tracks followed by a track with the trap set. A lot of alt tuning lately posted on AT which I like. This guitar was tuned to an open G. After I did it, I thought the sound was more like a backwoods, hillbilly song.
Unfortunately…
I apologize for not listening much hear to other people's music lately. I do have an excuse because this week we have moved to a new home which has taken up lots of my time - and right now we are in the new location but living with lots of boxes…
this was originally a song about breaking through paradigms but turned into a song about a girl.
Keys and string samples from Korg, MIDI with the old Ensoniq,
one diving board.
Thanks for the listen ,enjoy... RW
a collaboration of Alister Flint - Carlo Serafini - Chris Vaisvil
so, Chris did this. Carlo did that. and i added some. for the technical stuff, see below. :)
This piece uses multiple tunings simultaneously and is the inaugural…
This is a chord progression I found when waiting for Debbie to come home.
Left channel is a piano voice via GR-20, right channel my Mustang's own voice through the DOD FX-7
Any collaboration would be welcome.
Everyone has a first time....
This is an "out-take" from the You EP. Written in 2000 it was not finished as far as it is until 2005. Being lazy I just adapted the original rough take I made so I would not forget the song.
There are a few electric…
This is a short soft Jazz piece I found while playing through a few chords this evening.
Guitar split (GR-20) left and right + (GR-20) sax.
Maybe a certain percussionist might join in when he can?
Trax in Space appeared to be shutting down - so this was a musical interpretation of the pending demise. As it turned out TiS is still struggling to breathe => not too unlike those smokers on oxygen you see in anti-smoking ads.
The Wife is a self confessed “Not a morning personâ€.....
I am a morning person (well... Wake up happy person).... and so is the boy....
This causes some friction sometimes.... LOL!!!!!!!
We went to a church fate today... Was…
Ojalá (If only) it's a cover of Sebastian Santa Maria's original song.
For me it's a great honor recording this cover of this fabulous Chilean artist.
To Sebastian (1959-1996)
Vox, instruments = Me :0)

Well, you can be in full view then!
@Bee: Yes, these traditional patterns frequently have a melody of their own, and while it can be varied to some degree, an audience familiar with the pattern (and the dancers) expect to hear that melody. Otherwise the percussionist had better be playing behind some protective chicken-wire!
Ha ha, I can hear a melody!! Oh this is great! Go on, make 'em sing Norm!
@Tess-...I love the declaration "First" here on A.T....it always makes me laugh. @ Norm- love it. I like the panning as well, and also love the complex pattern build, especially toward the middle. First class A+ percussion.
Now where have i put those Dancing shoes....i best polish them for this little beauty....arrr shiny shoes and Norms percussion you just cant beat it.......aaaaaaarumba.....aaaaaaaarumba.........aaaaarumbaa.....1234......back 234.....
