I went out during cover of night (to avoid looking like a total crackpot) with a violin bow & Zoom H2 digital recorder and bowed various things in the neighborhood. This is the best - a beautifully resonant 4-way stop sign.
It's all getting a bit exciting here now... 13 minutes! Seriously had to turn down volume.
Feeling like I am disorientated and out of control. Very clever, epic piece Chris.

actually both parts of the sign, or should I say, both signs, were resonant. And sure if I can talk Debbie into doing the video I'll be happy to - can't be too many traffic sign solos out there :-)

this is like saws but sounds like a tube or bottle getting blown into :) it is hard to believe your story(LOL) next time bring film this is just dying for footage to put it with... :p
A collection of four improvisations on 19 note per octave electric guitar.
Sucralose
Aspartame
Cyclamate
Saccharin
The title is a play on artificial sweeteners and a collection of songs being a suite.

The music in the video is the harmonic series from the lowest E on the piano, 41.2 Hz, and the 16 harmonics above it. No other pitch is allowed. I used Paul Stretch's filtering and compression to accomplish this BUT the piece was not stretched…
Jeff has passed over the rainbow bridge today as I held him. We went out back one last time for a few minutes until the sun came back out and it was too hot. He enjoyed that. The last thing he did was put his paw on my hand and left it there…

Since you’ve gone
It’s all gone south
The dunces took over
Stupidity rules
They open their mouth
To prove they’re fools
You didn’t believe in god
And made me wonder how
If there was one
How could he allow
What evil has been done…
Field recording modified by using the entire recording as a template for noise reduction. The remaining sound was surprisingly melodic, and includes birdsong (mourning dove and sparrows most prominent), passing light aircraft, emergency siren…
The coffee table gang helped me round out this one that I shared earlier. I love this version with Mark Lofgren and Greg Connor's wonderful talents on the backup vocals and guitars. I like how my ukulele blended in on this version.
Sometimes…
I got nothing.
Insert some random post-apocalyptic sci-fi narrative here, involving Speak And Spells achieving sentience and taking over the world, only to be thwarted by the Amish.
Alternatively, "Based On A True Story" something something.
Bringing back a song from 2011 with a new twist. The song now has drums, bass, and an orchestral backend. This is hopefully part of a larger collection of me reworking older songs with orchestration.
Many thanks to Brian of A Beautiful Scene…

wickedly heavy, great!

Totally awesome, Chris. Love the mysterious flavours and that raunching bassline!
Rich, dark and mysterious. *Resists obvious joke about dream man*
Chuckie! Nice work. Ominous.
Innovative or what!!

Wow - amazing sounds - it's like being in a Tibetan Temple!
the post was not resonant.
actually both parts of the sign, or should I say, both signs, were resonant. And sure if I can talk Debbie into doing the video I'll be happy to - can't be too many traffic sign solos out there :-)
were you bowing the post or ( I assume) one of the two sign plaques?
and yes - video proof next time lol
And we have a winner in the "you might not look like a crackpot but ..." department! Love it! and Faved.

A lovely aural dream!

excellent! noise reduction is an excellent technique!
This works well! Great dexterity on the 12 string!
Beautiful Ben!

Quite like the solo here No doubt the Orange one will litigate until a cheese burger claims him.
Best take on the proceedings I've heard
excellent!

beautiful!
I bet this isn't in 12 equal :-) !!! Nice sound and creative idea!
Texas Instruments wants world domination....

Very unusual piece, and especially for your typical very thick wall of sound collages. Very good, I enjoyed the piece!
