For female voice and harp in Pythagorean tuning

That fade behind a city block,
Or trampled by insistent feet
At four and five and six oโclock;
And short square fingers stuffing pipes,
And…

You lay upon your back, and waited;
You dozed, and watched the night revealing
The thousand sordid images…
This is a captured and then edited live performance using the Sonar Matrix view using various samples - some of which were paul stretched.
I'm liking this - if only they had the possibility to change the pitch live it would be like sticking…
interesting angular reverseness, almost visual and like poetry. love how it leads into a cluster complementing the flat-planed stretches, if that makes sense to you :) in and then out of confusion...lovely outro

1/1/11; took bits from two of Mark's tracks from Pleasure Listening (2002) and improvised in Max with them, then mixed in DP. a mellow vibe for the new year.
This song is not for everyone but I like it because its a live recording with a single instrument using infinity delay FX. (I turned on the loop delay at :09 after the guitar was flat on the floor.)
All the sounds are made with an acoustic bass…

This rough track uses my Blue Just Tuning system (go to www.johnsmusic7.com for details and a photo of the guitar). This is the same tuning Chris Vaisvil used in his Excluded By Peers piece. I hope to add some lead to the track soon.
This blues piece uses my Blue Just tuning system (1/1, 15/14, 9/8, 6/5, 5/4, 4/3, 7/5, 3/2, 8/5, 5/3, 9/5, 15/8, 2/1). For more on my tuning go to www.johnsmusic7.com
A 3 track improvisation on 7 congas roughly tuned by ear to a chromatic scale.

For all she had to say.
I walked a mile with Sorrow,
