This is a motet I wrote for theory class slowed down by a factor of 12 and sung by 4 different choirs. A contribution to the ImprovFriday drone fest. And I made a video too.
This is a video piece made for the ImprovFriday drone theme event which used my DIY 9 string canon, DIY electrified 8 string psaltery, viola bow, ebow, and fingers. The tuning in unknown – just something I did by ear.
Pictures, streamable video…

This is simple test of East-West symphonic choirs solo soprano voice and East-West Hollywood strings contra-bass. I feel its a bit reminiscent of Lord of the Rings - of course, your mileage may vary - it is a very simple and direct arrangement…
so so pretty .. I do not know if a windy dialog am i ready for. ;) *looks over the dialog* sorry I would base my improvised modern classical jazz on things like this but I would never go programming a serial performance ,,, I say that now but then there is the future. ;)

It's obvious to me that the woman is furious with the man for buying a hideous carpet without asking her first!
"Kiss me, can you feel the magic?" just before she goes ballistic!
Great music Chris.

RPM 2011 number 2. Inspired by an ex-friend of mine who had the most dazzling rose tinted glasses. Always used to envy the simplicity of his view and how nothing could ever get to him (everything gets to me).. since i knew him I know a lot of…
Outland (The Ballad of Jarrod X)
words and music by VIVIAN CIRCLE
Mother, why did you lie to me?
I didn't have to make the same mistakes as you.
Father, why did you run away?
There was so many things left unspoken with you.
Jarrod walks…
Chris sent me this great tune playing his 17 ET guitar and fretless bass, and for some reason i thought Mafia instantly. Sammy the Bull was the under-boss to John Gotti back in the 80's and 90's and he turned informer to bring John Gotti down…
Improvisation using segments of the vocal track from Chris Vaisvil's piece Sweeney's Agony and sample fodder, played via midi keyboard, with live computer processing.
Was going to layer or track this into the jumping on 2 but could not do that legitimately anyhow by the end I start part of the jumping on 2 song, coming next. first here i set the levels then at about min 2 something I sync the beats between…
An unusual traditional tune from the first Scartaglen album way back in 1984. Going through stuff the other day and ran across the LP and couldn't even remember the tune or having recorded it. I played guitar on this track

Am totally inspired to make more videos to accompany tracks. This is really effective!
Mesmerising! Great video!
Agree with Wrink, Norm and Kavin, all of whom said far more intelligent things than I have ever said in my commenting life.
Enchanted!
esp like the drums on this! -Kavin./Breaking Light/Coelocanth
Excellent...... Conrad's voice reminds me for some reason of Steve Buscemi
Totally dig this track! Also the story behind the music is great.... love stuff like this!
Some really intense moments in here, lovely playing!
beautifully played.........dramatic
Very pretty - love the vocal tone!
Quirky and cool. Love your playing - totally jealous.
this is nice,,,, i like both the playing and the thinking behind this
I listened a few times. I like the different feeling of each phrase. Drama, suspense, anticipation. Great piece of work.

Beautiful and chilled.

Ha! Loads of fun. Great glitch!
Nice, loving the weirdness in this:)
Dig this a lot.
