I was working on one of my ethno 2 demos and needed a break so I made an improvisation on a series of major 7ths using only the Ethno 2 package.
All of the pitched instruments use the included Werckmeister temperament tuning.

improvisation on my Casio CZ-101 in 20th century classical style.
There was no theoretical basis or anything with this.
It's all just rock n roll to me ;-)

Dead to the World
Just a shade
A specter, a ghost
No place amongst the society of perfect being!
Dead to the World
Alien, unwanted
Not here, unseen
Untagged, uncounted
Lost, unwanted, despised, no home, no place, no Soul!

Well, you already know I adore this one: 5/4 meter, an unforgettable & unique hook, wicked guitar licks and a killer percussion/bass groove. It’s just perfect.

Quite captivating in an erie way. I like the contrast between the desperation that the vocal seems to imply and the offbeat and mildly harried timing of the music.

Cannon at the octave on F
I spruced this up by playing it twice; once with a pentagon subtractive synth duo + kontakt percussion and then with alto sax + baritone sax + jazz trap set.

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…

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…
Comments on vaisvil's stuff

Oh yeah, this works! Great vocals! :)

I like this for so many reasons.
man, you nailed it with the title.
this almost sounds like something that should be on the "Logan's Run" soundtrack.
interesting,,, the piece is epic and yet contained , like seeing a hurricane in a bottle,, well done
EXCELLENT! And 5/4 to boot! w;-)
it's actually a very sad and cool song :)

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.

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!
