Had to listen to this twice. Amazing juxtaposition in the intro transforming into something cohesive before brutally ripping itself apart at the end. Powerful and somewhat unsettling!
Wow this is lovely Bruce. I'd really love to get a look at your Max setup and see how you work. Maybe you could do a "producer masterclass" video one day?
I like this a lot. It reminds me why I like making noise pieces and that you shouldn't get hung up on conceptions of "music" as being something. Great noise!
Looks like maybe few people have left...
I'm back here to thank folks again. I finally released an "art rock" album that includes an updated version of this song. I was very nervous about singing and the nice comments here helped push me towards making the rest of the album (which is called Greener Grass, by Jostaberry, on Bandcamp and the streaming sites). So thanks, Len, and whoever was here before!
I'll tell you one thing for sure... I wouldn't trust no words written down on no piece of paper, especially from no Dickinson out in the town of Machine... you're just as likely to find your own grave.
I'll never be happy enough with it, lol so i posted a crazy improv, and i hope it sounds good enough to listen to at least once.
This is like the billionth time recording this song, and ive played it constantly on voice to people in secondlife…
Heh, I couldn't believe I forgot to share this with my friends here. Well here is the story. I'm sure you'll only listen once and probably not all the way to the end.

Artist's description:
Many years ago…
very cool track here!
as for freezing have you ever used GRM Tools Freeze or Riverrun? the former esp does a very nice job with any source.
& thanks for the comments. as for "shook me", it had chunks processed in MetaSynth; then arranged w/more processing in DP.
Well, I finally got my hands on a 17 note per octave electric guitar thanks for Brad Smith, a local Luthier who did a lovely conversion of a Jay Turser strat copy I bought at the local Guitar Center for $65. The guitar is nicely very bright…
My first attempt at a Blumlein or Mid/Side recording. This one is actually a mid/side recording as I used a directional mic in combo with a figure 8 ribbon mic set at 90 degrees from the main mic. Thanks to Pat Broaders for the loan of the ribbon…
A piano solo in the JI version of Wilsonistic pivot on C tuning posted to the Just Intonation group by Margo Schulter 12/25/2010. The piece was improvised on a M-Audio 88es using Pianoteq 3.6 and recorded in Sonar 8.5 with some editing of the…
made this for the recent indaba contest; kept mine true to Reich in some ways but put some new spins on it. my main rule was to use only the orig for sound sources.

I love this one. Really unusual combination of timbres. Exciting!
Hypnotic with a disturbing edginess.
Like some kind of cosmic pinball game.

Very interesting piece - by the end of it, I felt like I'd been through the Star Gate in '2001'!
Unfamiliar sounds put together in an extraordinary way, great.
Interesting sounds! Very nice!
have no idea how you do this but nice manipulation of voices.
great track reminds me of thumbtacks on piano hammers ! co
Cool
Like it!
Oh I like this. Very unusual. I'd like to know more.
you messing it sounded so damn good. had to download it...it's like it talks to you:)
Arabic scale you say? very good!
Unsettling, emotive, pristine. (I'm in the same room as Bethan Mathis, only I'm drinking one of the dusty bottles from her cellar.)
I see a very large, empty room with paintings on the walls, I'm eating ice cream and listening to you play. Can't be bad!
Woah! Powerful stuff!
This is some bug/Termite language! just listen.....cool!

persistent with surprises! cool
Thanks, guys! Appreciate it a lot.
thanks guys. it was a Reason sampler patch (maybe a dulcimer?) retuned with LMSO and then with some stern LFO filters.
no one does low/dark better than you
very cool; I could imagine a notated chamber version of this as well.
Does just what it needs to do.
thanks guys!
very nice
hells yeah. as they say.
heartfelt...I dig it!

thanks you guys; the winners were announced a few days ago. I quite liked my entry and that's why I'm spreading it around now.
very nice rendition; loyal treatment, yet different enough to warrant sharing.
