This is a motet I wrote for theory class slowed down by a factor of 12 and sung by 4 different choirs. A contribution to the ImprovFriday drone fest. And I made a video too.
This is a video piece made for the ImprovFriday drone theme event which used my DIY 9 string canon, DIY electrified 8 string psaltery, viola bow, ebow, and fingers. The tuning in unknown – just something I did by ear.
Pictures, streamable video…

This is simple test of East-West symphonic choirs solo soprano voice and East-West Hollywood strings contra-bass. I feel its a bit reminiscent of Lord of the Rings - of course, your mileage may vary - it is a very simple and direct arrangement…
so so pretty .. I do not know if a windy dialog am i ready for. ;) *looks over the dialog* sorry I would base my improvised modern classical jazz on things like this but I would never go programming a serial performance ,,, I say that now but then there is the future. ;)

It's obvious to me that the woman is furious with the man for buying a hideous carpet without asking her first!
"Kiss me, can you feel the magic?" just before she goes ballistic!
Great music Chris.

This particular broadcast was talked out about a half hour before I went to my 'You Screwed up' meeting at school. I'd barely woken up and I was ready to Talk Hard about Life (It's capatilized because it's the only one YOU'VE got. That means it…

Hi Richard, keeping the peace in space is all guitar and percussion. I used guitar effects quite liberally on Brian's, Norm's and my parts. The opening is Brian stretched to 8x and the organ-like part in the last 3rd is Brian's guitar backwards in part and the the 2 chord set copied and pasted a few times.

did a remix of latest B-52s (ex B-52's) song "Funplex". i admit i didn't really take the time to polish this, so it might have some flaws here and there, but it was fun to do and after all, is this not what matters most? :)
and you can…
You're just kidding yourself if you thought I could resist the chance to add a bit of percussion to this wonderful song by Osckilo & Launched. I used Paiste Sound Discs to create a 3vs.4 polyrhythm against the delightful underlying 4/4 Spanish…

Am totally inspired to make more videos to accompany tracks. This is really effective!
Mesmerising! Great video!
Agree with Wrink, Norm and Kavin, all of whom said far more intelligent things than I have ever said in my commenting life.
Enchanted!
esp like the drums on this! -Kavin./Breaking Light/Coelocanth
Excellent...... Conrad's voice reminds me for some reason of Steve Buscemi
Totally dig this track! Also the story behind the music is great.... love stuff like this!
Some really intense moments in here, lovely playing!
beautifully played.........dramatic
Very pretty - love the vocal tone!
Quirky and cool. Love your playing - totally jealous.
this is nice,,,, i like both the playing and the thinking behind this
I listened a few times. I like the different feeling of each phrase. Drama, suspense, anticipation. Great piece of work.

Beautiful and chilled.

Ha! Loads of fun. Great glitch!
Nice, loving the weirdness in this:)
Dig this a lot.

Nice! - I like how it turns into a prog rock piece almost about 1:40 ish
the problem here is that this IS the truth. and that is sad. Nice podcast!
love the deep percussion and sexy tune!
I can't play it :-0 OR delete it...
Nice - I was wondering where you've been!! - and at least your song plays :-)
Actually, if you wanted, I could try a treatment like Keeping the Peace in Space on one of your piano pieces, if you'd like.

cool!!
all of this sounds so real!
wow~~!!
I love this~!! excellent!! How did you get the advant guard sounds?
this is beautiful and moving. I wish I could play piano this well. Awesome work Richard!
Rockin!!
nice piece - good progression - does sound western
this is so expressive, especially once the piano comes in.
if you wish for me to take down my re-mix of your piece let me know.
excellent!! I really like this collab! The voice perhaps could be a touch louder other than that this is excellent!
wow. You have captured what St. Casimir cemetery sounds like at 4 am on a spooky fall night...
Man alive!! this is astounding!! what a trip!
As for the song icon for Don't Look Down - a friend made it for me and I am not sure what he used. Subway is a good bet.
