Yeah - you can tell there is some microtonal hijinx going on here. It's definitely in something other than the Western 12 note even temperament.
While it sounds a little alien, there is an odd charm to it. My brain on some level acknowledges there are harmonic/melodic relationships going on here.
It seems a lot of you record with open mics and can relate. I record 1 track at a time with usually 4 or 5 tracks. So, Im only asking for about 15 minutes of Silence...IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK??? Anyway, my house is so loud, I get a lot of bloopers…
On this beach made of sand and shells
and broken hearts
as with so many things in this life
it ends where it starts
And like the waves that will roll over me
you take away everything that I see
So I walk to the place where the sand
and sky…
This was an experiment today to try and write and record a song in 2 hours. It came out as a lullaby, I wrote it after a neighbor girl asked if she could have her ball back from my yard and I felt like an old man.
what I meant, really, is that I liked the way you felt free to play around with limited materials in this track (and others); and the different colors coming out of one chord is what made me think of Stimmung. It's all about the ear, and you have a good one, rather than theoretical knowledge (though that doesn't hurt, despite what some folks say).
Rough sketch of a proposed dreamy 12 string piece that I couldn't pull off on the 12 string so did this quick electric version with vocal pads. Not sure of the recording quality- sounds OK in my cans and kinda crappy on my monitors. Recorded march…

Really enjoyed this! Kind of "noir" but it keeps going off the edge! :)
Love this track! I didn't know you were here also, now following :)
Beautiful!
I expected a screamer lol
radical...sounds like R2D2 gettin his ass handed to.him by the imperial.guard! That was intense!
Interesting! Love the tuning used here
wild.
This is really good. I love the layering and the gradual swell.
Nicely done, sounds full and sort of festive through the headphones.
Haysting cry?

what is the tuning? It has a nice feel to it. Sort of rag time floating in and out - is it 24 equal?
I love the backwardsness !!

Very pretty!

man, great touches. & thanks for the compliments on 'folly'...cool that you listened all the way through & 'got it'
your vocals are very soothing. songs are great too!
great little tune. the almost falling apart at the seams thing...you pull if off really well...which is harder than many folks think!
such nice tones!

very nice; almost stimmung-like in the chord focus
wonderful stuff...!
