@Richard: Guilty as charged. But what happens on AloneTone stays on AloneTone. We're glad you are here!
@Sis: All of my beats are grabbable. That's what they're here for... I'm happy to steal a pumpkin for you any time. My patterns are alot like pumpkins: you don't have to ask - just grab one and run.
I thought you guys may be ready for a straight forward 4/4 pattern to play with instead another of my rhythmically esoteric patterns.

A lesser woman would conspire to kidnap you and make you play for her. Love the natural sounding beats you create and your sense of rhythm is nothing short of spectacular.
(PLEASE NOTE: If Norm should go missing with his drums and, say, any pots he may have to hand, I am not guilty.)
Reg got Elvis last night to do a special request for LG, but as the TCB band was having the night off Reg and Elvis concocted this one.....................
Norm's original 12/8 percussion track that forms the basis for the entire piece. http://alonetone.com/norm/tracks/mother-nut-drop
I'm involved in a microtonal music class. We are studying 11 edo instead of the normal 12 edo (equal division…
A Song I wrote about a friend of mine who used to Jump out of planes a lot.
This is one of the hidden tracks on my new album "Black Cat" which features Beth, Keith and Reewfwalker from alonetone and Geir and Jim from Songcrafters.
Here is a…
Year: 1999
Album:
Land of the Lost
Artist's description:
I don't remember where I got the drum set from but there is a custom percussion loop thanks to HammerHead.
The voice is mine suitably modified.
That is not a sequencer…
Reg has been over to Songcrafters.org on the other side and found this little beauty a piece of music by Willi Wendon and he loved it so much he's put a vocal to it. Hope you like it Willie..........

improvisation with pianoteq and hollywood strings
I am feeling like all of my improvisations sound the same again. I probably need to devote even more time to scoring - and building instruments.
Reg was alone so he had a few beers and had a look through his tapes this is Pt 1 of a set of tapes taken from the cellar.......Regs first night in the cellar...James Brown ...Elvis....Louis...Jim.The story begins.........
Here's my talley of who's in the cellar with the Regs Deuce:
James Brown, Henwrench, Vincent Price, Elvis, Frederico, Louie Armstrong, Bon Scott, Frank Sinatra, Jim Morrison and perhaps Satan.

This was going to be a re-make of Dancing on my own but reg was too busy to participate so i have used Norms percussion track and got Chris Vaisvil to bass it up and i have added a vocal creating something new. Reg has had a lot of trouble with…
Reg's little homage to Elizabeth Taylor who passed away today, the piano is a little dodgy and the lyrics and the singing in parts as i'm following my dodgy playing, it will have to be revisited but i thought i'd share anyway as i would forget…
I have tried to make a literal representation of this from Mat Cooper:
"I consider rhythm to be ultra-low pitch. Polyrhythms are then Just Intonation. For example if rhythm1 cycles through 4 beats in the same time as rhythm2 cycles through 3…
Well, is it microtonal? What do you make of this?
As for me, when it is in a tempo range that I can follow (mid range) it sounds like a basic 4vs.3 polyrhythm. This makes sense to me, as all of the drum tones drop back into the their common denominator of 4 or 3 and resound in unison.
So, I get the sense of polyrhythm, but not microtonality.
It would be interesting to me to repeat this experiment with, for example, piano key tones to see if the results are the same, i.e. is one left with a sense of 4vs.3 polyrhythm or something else.
My hypothesis is that the effect will be the same. I do not believe the pitch of the notes relate to this question. And I also think that at this point I do not agree with the premise that "polyrhythms are then Just Intonation": polyrhythms represent a relationship in time, whereas Just Intonation represents a relationship in pitch.
Comments on Norm's stuff

Where do I get an application to be the house percussionist at this place??
Brilliant!
Still dig it. Great vass, Baisvil! And vox heavenly.
Great collaboration. Awesome bass.
Yet another side to your amazing voice, Reg. Impressive.

Great recording technique. Naturally, I can't help but think of old Saturday morning cartoons on the television when I hear music like this. Love it!
