I keep thinking Wendy Carlos is an influence here till about 4 min and it becomes more modern. Noise filtering @6 min or what you are doing with the oscillator. Good work and interesting foray that is cool and nostalgia like.

@Andrew Russe: very perceptive. Yeah I had to listen twice to appreciate the thoughtful layering of guitars, which I actually didn’t use in my remix because the mix would’ve been too crowded. This has been an almost constant earworm this week but I don’t mind!
Yep... didn't comment, did I? "Cool sounds" :) But now I've heard the lap-steel addition on Kavin's remix, I appreciate this one more than I did at first... very cool sounds. Raises an interesting thought for me... how we can see/hear through others eyes/ears, we can have ours "opened" by someone else's re-expression of a thing... when I first listened to this, it was "OK" for me, I saw Newbold's comment and thought "yeh, well" ... but hearing Kavin's addition gave me an "in" to this track... listening now I can hear/experience what he and Newbold heard first up.
Tettigoniidae in Overtones is scored for two Audio Damage Quanta synthesizer, tamtam, two triangles, glockenspiel, snare drum, bass drum, two tamborines, plucked psaltery and french horn all in harmonic series tuning. The synthesizers are purposely…
so impressive wow --- just like mmmm tasty texture touches. and tinglings --- just had to favorite this --- I think maybe to use this in a mix-- maybe but it might be too 'expressive' to work like that-
this is a collaboration with my old guitarist chris vaisvil with whom we are celebrating being in our first band 40 yrs ago.
chris does the 12 string guitar and the lead guitar at the end. i am doing the bass, keys, drums and vox. i wrote the…
An exercise in dissecting a well known song to see what makes it tick. Drums are looped, bass is not in tune, guitar is not quite right, but I'm slowly getting there. Will update this later. Somewhen...
I was passing by a darkened church this evening, as the wind danced through the trees, looking though the a window, i noticed a single candle lit, flickering on the alter step, casting a shadow within.. as i pressed an ear to the dusty glass…

Hi Richard, the tuning I used for the Magic of Belief has much more than major or minor and I used almost all of the. The opening plays with the chords CDG, CEbG CEb^G (a "neutral" third about half way between minor and major) and CEG (except the E is a purer 3rd than 12 equal)
The main motive bottoms out at what my ears are telling me is a neutral interval against a D neutral chord (but I'm not 100% sure, I didn't work it out - could be D minor)

What with all the great Zep covers posted by Tworegs and Chris Vaisvil, here's mine, I enlisted the vocal of the man himself, thanks Reg! Also note my new fretless strat as second guitar here.
Thank you for the comments. I don't often comment here anymore but I do want to answer your Rhodes question. I believe Ben uses a Yamaha Motif. The clarinets are real. I'd love to hear your new age version of Stairway - that would be grand!
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
Thoroughly enjoyed this.
Oh yes, I likes this
Liking that groove
Great Sabbath like groove on this!
good sounds. -- faux imitation and almost imaginary type comment here.-- but still it is great music-- like it is.
I keep thinking Wendy Carlos is an influence here till about 4 min and it becomes more modern. Noise filtering @6 min or what you are doing with the oscillator. Good work and interesting foray that is cool and nostalgia like.
WIth some more instrumentation, this could be a very good dungeon synth track.
The opening granular sound is awesome descriptive and retro of the lost in space/star trek time.
Tranquil but ominous..
this sounds huge. I love the tone
i like the bass in here and the FX are prefect for the mood. the ending drone reminds me of the Beatles "I want you" vibe which i love.
Strange, quirky, fun.
Inspired and invigorating!

mostly pretty blending of nice sounds. :) so great I can hear this in a loop just on and on--
Love this...very textural and haunting....👍

Thanks Brett - I'm just being a session man here - Frank is seriously rocking this out!
nicely done - you should get Reg to sing on your version.
Hi Richard, not a webcam - that was Stonehedge at winter solstice. Nice piece here!
Nice, though the mix gets a bit muddy for the effects flying all over. +100 for covering this.
Now to return the favor - thanks for listening and commenting.
Hi - the poem is here http://chrisvaisvil.com/i-live-by-the-cemetery-ambient-in-17-edo-harmonic-series-polytuned/
gosh this is like music from the other side of the veil of the multi-universe!
I'm up for a collaboration. Perhaps I can play my long string harp which you can manipulate and videoize.
True, but doing that is hard without practicing in the new key a bit. This was more for the fun of it.
Can I make a request - The Wizard by Sabbath?
nice job on this!
Lovely orchestral piece!
This is a beautiful piece!!

a very intense drone - I like the solo guitar work a lot.
and I love this song!
thanks for the comment.
Awesome! I love your fretless work!
love the sound of your synth here - reminds me lot of the old CS-10 I once had a very long time ago. http://www.vintagesynth.com/yamaha/cs10.php
