This is a solo piano improvisation that I performed last year (2009) but have tinkered off and on for a while as a work in progress. It really isn’t done yet but I thought I might let others hear it. The piano sound is generated entirely by…

I hold nothing inside
My brain aches from lack of....

I am shriveling up inside
Having not one thing to express
And my feelings are dulled…

compelling track, I like it. In other context the faux drums might bother me but here the strange elements seem to compliment each other; or a sense of conscious artifice.
PS I like your Ives

I had not touched my keyboard for a long time - couple months? So it was inspiring to play it again. I set it up in the living room of the new house and played pianoteq on my laptop using a Just Intonation tuning (below). Actually I had to improvise…

Well, I make no claim to the authenticity of Ethno 2 samples - though assuming they are top notch is probably a safe bet. I just released a revised version to my private mailing list and here are the instruments:
This piece is a quasi-middle eastern section using the celtic 12, E, and D guitars and the lead Electric Bouzouki plus acoustic bass in Zurna tuning and the percussion includes Timbales, gong, Bendir, Daires, Darbuka, Tamborin, and Sistres.
Backyard Ghost sent me something to work on...i added my own touch and arranged it...i sent it to him and he added another of his touches and rearranged it and You've Had My Tears is the end result...we both love this collaboration...expect more…
Abakua refers to a secret, Afro-Cuban, male society of percussionists - as I understand it, one had to be initiated into this society before they would be taught how to play percussion in their style. One of their hallmarks is to impose what I…

This is one of my first alonetone collaborations written by Louis Smit.
Everyone should go listen to some of his tunes. Louis is a very original
and talented folk style acoustic guitarist- singer - songwriter.
You can hear him here.

This is a special request by Sister.
It's kinda sloppy. Frankly, because I suck at it :)
I'm not much of a cover musician but I gave it hell.
It's mostly analog. MIDI drums, DB33 organ patch,
strat leads, and Ibanez chords, Dean bass…
Hi - I enjoyed this composition very much. I would like to mention though that the volume was very low. So much so I have to normalize it to listen reasonably. Do you lack software to do this type of manipulation? (or was this on purpose?) In any event this piece impressed me enough to go through your series of sonatas!
CROSS-OVER POLYRHYTHMS
This is actually a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with **different meters** (i.e., a different numbers of beats/measure) are played at the **same tempo**: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms…
Many nebulae form from the gravitational collapse of gas in the interstellar medium. As the material collapses under its own weight, massive stars may form in the center, and their ultraviolet radiation ionises the surrounding gas, making it visible…

Ha! I have an ear for vintage Vaisvil!
Great guitars. I was suprised that this was a 2010 piece... reminds me of some of your vintage stuff.

I will have to stop back by sometime and really listen to each track....got a great collection of everything here.
Love this one! Faved,downloaded...and listened to A LOT
Had to listen to this again.
Big time awesome!

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.

this is wonderfully sad and mysterious!
beyond just excellent! This is a trip through space to another place, time, and existence! I can't say enough!
Excellent!!
Excellent sounds and I keep wanting to hear more of her :-) I especially like the percussion.
Beautiful!! In composition and execution.
Nice tune - so this is a cover?
Nice tune - like the production
nice an heavy!
entrancing! Not at all what I expected with "march" in the name - much more subtle and smooth - I enjoyed this one very much!
Awesome!!! This is so perfect!
nice, really nice!

I enjoyed playing on this thanks Norm! - no guitars harmed in the improvisation
nice progression
welcome! And excellent track!
Aengus is all Ethno 2.
I love your voice reef. Excellent tune and production - your acoustics sound especially nice.
This is brilliant! Would you consider doing a collaboration sometime?
