back when I could access usenet still I made a newsgroup for amateur musicians and there was a nice group of 20-30 people who contributed and listened to each other's work. There was a woman named Emma who did a killer…

actually this is early 76. prob about late may. i recall cause we just got steve in the band, and already he was talking to mohsen about kicking me out of the band. go figure!
Now there just has be a story behind this?......excellent ominous soundscape...that wasn't Norm trying to get through was it? He hasn't met up with Desirea has he?
heady, I always enjoy finding the little hidden treasures in ambient soundscapes. This is good, very sharp and alive, and taps into those far recesses of the mind.
Yeah, I should have said, "Gong" earlier! Shows what a nit I am.
I like this, it sounds really pretty with the guitar and percussion too. That gong is magnificent!
i was listening to a post of this Beatles cover by oldrottenhead this morning,,it is a really great song, so this evening i sort of just sort of sat down an let it happen,,i didn't even really know the song as much as i might like,, but i find…
ohhh I didn't see you had uploaded this! To answer your question - it was a Yamaha - can't remember the model - it had 3 pedals - I agree about the low end but the high end was really weak in my opinion.
Added a little more to this nice little change of strumming patterns played as an excuse to write a little love song.
I FOUND LOVE
You know I love you more than I
Ever thought one simple man could
You know I need you more than I
Ever…

finally got to hear this. there is a distinct didgeridoo sound to it, especially when you start. I wonder what would happened if you bowed the string. - and - how did you pull the wire out of a tire - I want to do that.
Lyrics:
======
I hate you when you breathe. Could you stop?
Waking up is hard to do when sleep never comes
But your ugly faces woke me up...
Callous sycophants
I know you too well to rest again
I'll stay up forever. I'll be ready
I've seen…
The island of Cuba was a Spanish possession for almost 400 years (1511-1898). The land-owning elite held social and economic power, supported by slaves, both indigenous and of South American and African descent, until slavery was abolished…
these are the dronishness effects going thru my mind at times..
I have the midi files saved if you would like them? although some of this is performance midi records If I can say that? ;)
A composition for 3 piece jazz band, tenor sax, fretless bass, and drums in 14 equal divisions of the octave and 5/4 time. This was realized using Garritan Jazz and Big Band sample set and Sonar X1.
I'm going to put this in my profile if it will fit.
the question of how microtonality is perceived and why is a hotly debated one on the tuning list. There seems to be, in general, but not in all cases, shared intervals around the world, like the 5th. However non-western cultures use, in general, microtonal tunings. !2 equal notes to an octave is a relatively recent invention in the west. 300 years ago it was common for what would be now called a microtonal tuning to be in common, everyday use. As best as can be determined the push for 12 equal was all about changing keys in a single piece of music. If you take the tuning of the middle ages, Pythagorean, you find you can't play in any key despite having 12 notes because the intervals between the notes are not equally spaced. As a result when you take a pure chord and move it up or down the octave with the same distance between the notes it could become something hideous. 12 Equal solves that problem at the expense of detuning all notes, some more than others.

Hi Ricard, thanks for the listen and comment. It is probably hard not to hear 14 edo as out of tune since it so close to 12 but not quite there. I think then your sense of it being flattened and less bright is the result of the tuning.

a bit of a story here eh? nice, and as always.. i enjoy all that you do,,, and i hope even learn a bit r
You did probably your best vocal on this and certainly you get the prize for conviction. Well played too!
Heavens! That's threatening, I hope you hung up!
Hi Chris, well I got the new laptop at last, so here I am trying it out. Amazing speakers! Sounds pretty good to me and well played.
actually this is early 76. prob about late may. i recall cause we just got steve in the band, and already he was talking to mohsen about kicking me out of the band. go figure!
Nice mix, enjoyed this one.
Great cover Chris.......
Now there just has be a story behind this?......excellent ominous soundscape...that wasn't Norm trying to get through was it? He hasn't met up with Desirea has he?
Nice work! There are some excellent harmonies in there Chris. So Phanty can drum then, brilliant stuff!
That is fascinating! Sounds lovely! I was glued to the video. Bethan
Woo. This takes me back... Love it :)
Epic!
Love these vintage treasures! Keep digging. Very cool track, Mr V!

Puts me in mind of the euphoria while drowning. Really smooth and weightless sounding.

Wow! You got some sensational sounds in there.
Creepy stuff! Really well done. Is that your giant cymbal there?
Flippin heck! This is great! Bethan

the scope of this is totally impressive
one of my favorite songs - done really well!
Beautiful Richard!!
this is an excellent song!

This is cool! You made the google guitar sound like its going through a *huge* stack.
wow. very powerful words and music.
this is excellent - and unique!
lovely Richard! Sounds light music for a candle light dinner.
thank you for the listen and comment on my seagull improv.
Reg - he did do something like that one day - and yes it was great!
and the excellence of the music should be overlooked too.
Reg - you are one heck of a story teller! Have you considered writing a novel or short story?
Hi John, I like this one.
you should be creating music for sci-fi films!
I wish AT had a repeat button. I'm downloading this - great piece Norm!

This is beautiful! I love the bluesy feel. Would it be ok if I try to add to this?
