This is an experiment where I slowed down Norm Harris’ percussion track “7th Son†http://alonetone.com/norm/tracks/7th-son and slowed it down by a factor of five and ran it through effects and such – and then played along with my 17…
I played 12 string guitar and 5 string bass along with Norm's original percussion track http://alonetone.com/norm/tracks/7th-son. The only effects were a bit of attack shaping on the bass (compression w/o compressing).
I did this kind of oddly…

Comments on vaisvil's stuff
The song makes me feel that the fake life I lead is still stranger then the real one that happens.
very nice writing,,, the sound is very crisp and clear,,,
“Something has changed. The world feels strange now. Even the way the clouds move isn’t right.†Wow, powerful stuff.
A most mournful and lovely piece with a definite feel of Japan. A perfect accompaniment to your amazing photograph.
Fantastic playing there. Congratulations. Pity it's only a minute long though lol
Wow factor here! Fascinating video, kept stopping by the way, but shows that life still goes on. I like way you mixed the images. Wonderful chorale!
A most interesting and beautiful listen with lots of atmosphere. Lovely Chris!
Most interesting, thanks for it. Your music fits the content perfectly and adds stirring atmosphere.
*impressive!*
i thoroughly enjoyed this. jus read the description n understood as far as.. this is a guitar piece! some people really know their shit! tis a good thing
Almost sounds like a bit of Paulstretch going on there in parts.

I love the beats...wow! Kinda spooky this one! Very inventive!!
Picking up some medieval flavours towards the end - very nice!
Love the reverse touches - reminds me of something I was working on, but this is way better.
Lovely outdoorsy feel. Norm's beats cut through beautifully, while the 12 string holds my attention.
Great expression here! (Also, your "about" pics are fabulous!)
very nice sonic imagery.
Wish it lasted an hour...compelling and wonderful! Great!!
Such an awesome piece of music, the sci-fi waves compliment the tonal guitars that you add trough out the piece. Bravo Chris!

Enjoyed the music - great recording and song!
Desiree - I don't want to be just another notch on your lipstick case.
excellent!
nicely done! Naw she don't want me.
I'm just stunned at your Robert Plant voice in this. Wow.
maybe its for the best it didn't work out Reg.
Reg - you did awesome vocals on this!
rocks!! I gotta get to your cellar - but would your crowd throw stuff at me if I played microtonal blues?
Here, Ladies and Gentle, and Desiree too, is a man who has gone totally off the edge of reality and is in a basket with a case number...
I had missed this one! Cool!
rocks!
damn - the room is spinning!
If we don't watch it Desiree will break up the band!
It isn't love Reg - it is apparently an addiction!
wow - what a novelette!
Hi Reg - the drums on Staggering Home is provided by my old band mate Frank Miller. listening....
I'm glad you took this child under your wing and helped it grow up!
no aliens in the fav box - but still 89 favs - interesting.
enjoyed - I certainly do love the background you give to your work.
great enjoyed!!
