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.
synthesizers and effects
“It is a peculiar colony” says István Maák, a zoologist at the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw. “They are doing the best they can, surrounded by dying.” In 2019, Maák took it upon himself to do something about…
what? IF the average neighbor is an alien that wants to harvest our body parts and organs for experiments would killing them really stop them? or should we just nuke there house straight on?? I am asking for a friend--
@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-
my dad at one time helped with a radio show - if I remember correctly Tilden High School in Chicago had a radio transmitter. This would have come from there. My son traced this back to about 1923. My father tended to bring things home from where he worked, etc. He even brought home, as far as I could tell, the entire Data General railroad traffic controlling computer - vintage early 70's - the programs were loaded via punched paper tapes - when it got replaced. And no, it wasn't used on this piece. Ben has it. But at 1000 Hz he should be able to get it work if he feeds it the right kind of electricity.
This is a remix of an improvised track I did for our first RPM album. For this new mix, I got rid of the vocals & added a most excellent electric guitar part by our good friend, Chris Mitchell. He listened to the track just once and proceeded…
this is based on an improve from back in jan 75, then guitarist - chris layed this riff out and i never forgot it. it was the first time i was in a band as a bassist. the rest of the riffs are mine and everything else disastrous done in this song…

We were having a little tipple down the cellar last night and we came up with a Christmas song for the festive season...hope you enjoy..........

Well Jefferry came down the cellar this evening for a chat and a bit of consoling.................. so we decided to recant his tale of woe........................poor old Jeferry.............

I KNOW HOW LOVE CAN FEEL(Lyrics)
I know how love can feel
I know that love can heal
i know i kneel before you
i know it can burn you, destroy you
i know how love can…
Thank you for the comments on Sympathy for a Friend. I didn't use a synthesizer. All of the sound is from one take on my 19 note per octave guitar + effects.
Sort of a Tuesday improv...
Built up around a synth texture that I built up with:
Operator->FilterStation->Volcano->Kombinat->Panstation->RP-Delay
(what's the fun in having plugins if you can't abuse them)
Heres a collab with Wildgeas Music a beautiful bit of music hope i did it justice with the vocal............
Tomorrow (Lyrics)
I know the curse of the darkness is coming
those dark nights that will feed upon my soul
with no forward glance of tomorrow…
So after hearing some of Stephen Krell's outstanding picking, I asked him if he'd like to play along with any of my songs... I can't be happier with the one he picked to add his banjo to (seeing as how the song is written about my favorite Pete…
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.

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....👍

I love the floating feel this has.
also - you have an astounding memory!
Ha - this riff is mine? I sure don't remember it - now I feel embarrassed about my comment :-)
excellent! I love the opening guitar riff and cool ending!
Nailed Tom's voice!
Very Tom Waits - love it!
wow your voice sounds so like the Kinks!
love your voice here!

What do you have in your ambient rig? I am enjoying your work!
Hi Bethan - I have no idea who played it - but they did an excellent job. The midi file I found somewhere in the 90's.
wow - another side totally! I like the string / piano combination.

I love that metallic sound!
The cello work is especially good.
nicely done!!

enjoyed!!
