This is an improvisation (with a bit of editing where my timing got off by a lot) for this week’s ImprovFriday event
I used my M-Audio 88es to drive:
Korg MS2000
ARP 2600 V soft synth
Absynth 5 soft synth
Session 3 drummer soft synth

Carlsbad is a great cave... perhaps a bit commercialized: it actually has a US Post office in it's depths - 750ft below the ground.
But the reverb in this piece is excellent: fitting of the 7th largest cave chamber in the world. Well done. (It would have been a long process getting that large of a choir up out of the cave on it's small elevator.)

Norm Harris provides percussion and percussion "toys". I programmed my Korg MS2000 to a 12 note subset of 17 equal and added some Kontakt choir, absynth (both in 17 edo) and some field recordings from this week. I seem to be drifting into these…
I like your nurse, but whatever she gave me is freaking me out a bit. Who brought the chipmunks to church?
Menacing work, V. Menacing. Sounds like a rough week.

This is a live cut from an NPR radio broadcast back in 1988 while my Irish Trad group Scartaglen was on one of its first east coast tours. Found recently on a cassette tape. Musically this was one of my favorite periods in the history of the band…
Hi Kirk, typically it is easiest to start talking about notes as numbers in the tuning. So say for instance a a fifth would be from note 1 (or 0) to note 12 (11). This page may help http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/19edo
*Pilón* reveals a Cuban pattern, traditionally played on Timbales, but in this case on Jr. Congas & Congas (with gated reverberation and flanger effect). The rhythm of Pilón is based on the motions of pounding sugar cane.

Hi Kavin, if your new tuning changed the length between the 5th and 6ths fret for instance then, no you could not accomplish this by changing the tuning of the open strings.
On the other hand you can make a small trip into microtonality by retuning the open strings a quarter flat or sharp relative to each other.
2011 according to Regs research was pretty shit for most apart from the couple from England......it thought i would use a Chinese theme to the music being that they own it and it was the year they were able to buy most of it cheap.....note to…
Quite excellent and I'm only 2 minutes in. This is an amazing composition of ever changing aural landscapes. Wonderful!! and I'm 14 minutes in. At 15 minutes in I downloaded this piece. By 21 minutes you have taken me to a new never seen before aural vista overlooking the eternal. What an incredible transformation to an organ-ish sound at 25 minutes. Wow... the symphonic length was filled with symphonic sound. I love your piece! The closing flute like tones from your ebow is just perfect.

This is a “cross-over” pattern. Cross-over patterns are a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with different numbers of beats/measure are played at the same tempo: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms have measures…
This rough track uses my Blue Just Tuning system (go to www.johnsmusic7.com for details and a photo of the guitar). This is the same tuning Chris Vaisvil used in his Excluded By Peers piece. I hope to add some lead to the track soon.
Well heres my attempt at singing Jerusalem....i would have liked to have performed it better so that the vocal would have done Chris's music more Justice but sometimes you just have to do what you can and go with the flow........thanks Chris…
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
Wow, stirring stuff!
Yes indeed cool!
Ummm just blown away!
Cool story about Majnun. Very pro sounding production. Horns sound great to me.
yes........very chaotic and interesting all at the same time,,,,,
:)
Wow! You must have some organizational skills...great mash! I like the reversed gtr and various treatments.
Very Deep and thoughtful!
cool sound!
Gosh, that was gripping stuff!
I always love your piano work. Now this really works. I had to look up "Euler's Constant" but it's still Greek to me. Quite a mysterious number.
Haunting sounds!

very nice,, interesting, and absorbing,,,i like this all the way through

Puts me in mind of John Carpenter's movie music. I like the piano changes. Nice creation.
Talk about a short ride, lot's of old school electronica for sure...well done man!
Really enjoyed this track. Loved the piano especially, a really good and different listen.
SWEET! love the somber piano at the begining
Sick! The video is totally buggy and odd with alliance to the sound....great!

Norm, just how many chickens have you raised? ;-)
this is an awesome tune!
Wow NPR - how cool!! And the music is great!!

very good - very very good!
good blues - could be longer with MTC shredding some blues licks
nice work!
excellent song!

Thanks again! And I usually don't like banjo - but love it here!
Sad Reg, but so true for too many.
This a beautiful and indeed your arrangement is spotless
Thanks for the listen and comment - now to listen to your piece.
thanks for the listen and rating!
Hi John, thanks for listening. The tuning is 11 EDT and uses 0, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10 as scale degrees.
wow! a beautiful memory - very cool. I've only seen just a few meteors so I'm glad to hear your story!
excellent! great vocals and guitar!
Thanks for making this happen!
