Inspired by current events.

How many times

watched a lot of silly TV a week I had the flu .... the title of this song is inspired from an episode of "How I met your mother" ... the rest of the lyrics are a mashup of silly nonsence and deep philosofical poetry .... yeah right :)

Harmonic six-star, group A, from Fokker

A string composition played on Fender Mustang driving a Roland GR-20 that was re-tuned on the fly
And another one I didn't share from the same day. I must of been in a funk where it all sounded really bad. This improvisation concentrates more on melodic aspects of 22 edo though there are some harmonies.
