"Tether"
Whatever it was, is wasn't manumission
To spill the blood, to pull the weed
You can bury the past, but it's a mausoleum
With the ghost of a fist that won't let us be
Can we bring it together,
Can we call from the mountain to the valley…
Poetry, a Cubist’s View is a “mash” of Benjamin Smith’s Ben.improv.Jul.16.2013 on electric piano and a combination of Paul Mimlitsch’s bass clarinet and soprano clarinet improvisations: “71913bcimpx1?, “71913scimpx1?, and “71913scimpx2?. I added…
Full and exciting Chris. I thought it would be marvellous as a soundtrack for a film of the book Animal Farm. Not what you intended I'm sure! Cheers Bee

Well, I play this in Fokker 7-limit Just Intonation on the piano and I didn't attempt to try to sing as high as Robert. So that makes the vocals hard to nail right there. And I played it over many times the past 3 days and my voice got worn out…
Nobody can follow Plant, especially on this one, so why even try? I ought to dare my local classic rock station to play this version and tell them I'll stop listening if they won't do it. Heh heh. That'll fix 'em, won't it?
I dig the improv at the end; it makes me think that perhaps I should do my own "New Age" style cover of Stairway. Hmmm.

Neither of us realized this is a Van De Graaf Generator song - I received the lyrics through an old friend of mine who passed away a few years ago. His book of poetry by Peter Hammill was one of his favorite possessions and he hand wrote out the…

Certainly is stirring stuff, unnerving and thought provoking. I really love your music Chris it's like it's stalking, ready to pounce - like a cat. Cheers Bee

In nuclear physics, a magic number is a number of nucleons (either protons or neutrons) such that they are arranged into complete shells within the atomic nucleus. The seven most widely recognised magic numbers as of 2007 are 2, 8, 20, 28, 50…
Continuing journey of late getting reacquainted with my acoustic guitar past in a new direction more improvised and spontaneous than I used to do and more akin to some of the acoustic work of recent years with Chinapainting. I'm also rediscovering…
I think the material from 2007 / 2008 resides on the server in a folder left from the old soonlabel forum. I didn't delete that folder so that the links would not break. But now a decade later perhaps I should just delete it.
This is very mysterious - sounds like you are running you voice through the synth?
I said it so long ago:
"We don't know.
We might not ever, will we?"
I said it so long ago:
"We don't want to know.
Or do we?"

Full and exciting Chris. I thought it would be marvellous as a soundtrack for a film of the book Animal Farm. Not what you intended I'm sure! Cheers Bee
I heard this on the radio just the other day. ;) Sorry, I jest. Nice piano tone. Is it a real Rhodes or synthesized?

That'll fix 'em, won't it? I dig the improv at the end; it makes me think that perhaps I should do my own "New Age" style cover of Stairway. Hmmm.
that's rather nice vais, a bubble & squeak of free jazz
i wouldn't say murdered maybe a little beaten up though ....i love that piano work this is the first time I've ever heard it on the piano and it sounds great.....
Excellent!!
Interesting piece

well done..
Good stuff
Compelling interpretation of a powerful poem. Great job, guys! Tess
Great track, Vaisvil. Strong sounds, well constructed... evocative without having to do too much.

Its why they fly in cris-cross patterns!
You get some great sounds out of the pedal!
truly beautiful!
This is a lovely piece of intimate mystery!
this has a lovely mood that is introspective and unique
works extraordinarily well!
beautiful looping!
Love the dramatic opening and the release of tension that starts in the middle and resolves at the end nicely.
beautiful!
The music is excellent in how strident it is.
reminds me of the minute man air corp of Massachusetts bringing down spitfires during the Boston Tea Party of 1812. Some tea - some party!
Great sounds in this!
excellent odd and menacing mood!
Its the only reason to have a day job!

Beautiful Ben!
