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

You have interpreted the poem perfectly Chris. The poignant strings, military drum rolls and booming explosions set the scene most sympathetically. It's rather haunting! Lovely job indeed.
@Kavin, ha ha, it's the accent! Bethan

Chris and Bethan - Spellbinding collaboration... Dramatic, exciting, and beautifully performed. Love the reverse vocals at the end - sounds French! Super cool.

Crumbs Chris, that's incredible. Sounds really good, the music is superb, very nightmarish but dreamy too. Yeah, most impressed.
@Jane, Trev and Kavin, thank you, we had a great time.
I've been going to a lot of performance poetry nights recently, and this is amazing, Bethan. You'd go down a storm at my local Art House! Great collab :)
what I did was play two tracks of violin with a viola bow and 1 track of fretless guitar bowed with the viola bow and finger picked with your track. I then noise reduced the takes and sliced them into appropriate loops - with the two styles of playing fretless separate into 4 channels of Sonar's Matrix view. Then I wanted more time so I took your track and reversed it and tacked it onto the end. After that I set up matrix view with the loops and effects into 4 audio channels. (guitar rig, dblue glitch, lexicon reverb, cakewalk amp sim absynth 5 effects and camel space) Some of the clips got effects as well. I then performed matrix view live against your track + reversed track. This left the clips in the audio track - some of those I randomly reversed the audio here and there. Then I mastered and uploaded. One other thing I did to you track was impose a volume envelope and then put a compressor on top - those two things kinda fight it out.
The Flying Bear features a nice fusion of funk and rock that leaves the listener both satisfied and excited. An experimental vibe is very prominent during the song's bridge, and the entire song can be rooted back to Soulstice Music's Red Hot Chili…
3 guitar tracks followed by a track with the trap set. A lot of alt tuning lately posted on AT which I like. This guitar was tuned to an open G. After I did it, I thought the sound was more like a backwoods, hillbilly song.
Unfortunately…
A song about not wanting to feel for someone that has treated you badly and left you behind.
Despite having these feelings you still feel this person is above you. As they fly freely and you're left lost on the ground.
When they come flying…
An experiment with quarter tone tuning.
I tuned my guitar: low E (normal tuning)
A (quarter step up)
D (normal tuning)
G (quarter step down)
B (normal tuning)
high E (tuned D then quarter step down)
This time I tried something else. It's definitely more jazzy than anything before. I think its a direction in which I'd like to keep going.
I hope you like it!
Here's to insignificance my friend. May you never be squashed like a bug.

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.

Brilliant, yawl. I swear I could be happy listening to B read a phone book.
like it good mood
Just realized I really like this song, but rarely hear it. You may have topped the original.
Definitely sounds like an Indian influence here. Nice work Chris. I like the tone too, sounds like a really good guitar. Bethan
Really nice! I gotta get me an old electric and pull the frets off sometime!
Not what I was expecting at all but they are there, on the end.I think you are getting good at this Chris. Yes, very clever. Cheers Bee

I liked this quartet a lot - better than No. 4. Melodically it just appealed.
yes! this is great Lalo!
love the effects in here.
excellent - sounds like dreamtime. I love it.
I like your guitar work here - especially past 2:10 - an improvisation?
nope - not heard of robert wyatt - or the music of soft machine for that matter that I can remember.
like the harmony vocals a lot!
nice groove!
Are these clips of Pelosi or Phyllis Schlafly? Excellent tune!
great voice and lyrics!
I like this - makes me want to give this technique a try.
I like it - very gentle.
ambient game music ?
nice ambient!!
nice ambient!!
nice ambient!!
this is Romanian reggae?
