with the distorted vox in the front, I almost expected a showing by NMC or DJ ns

indeed i thought the 1st was very "wholesome", this is the same piece, note wise as the former? if not if seems very similar to me,,, i enjoy both,, this one might have a bit more bite? anyway well done

Cheers mate it is good to be back.

Nice one mate

Really cool mate excellent.

Full force! massive sound!

Rage! (Oh, and I for one am very happy that you disregarded that dark advice.)

Very different mate cool

Sounds like a mariachi band has recently been through your Guitar Center...

Ooo, it's like eavesdropping or being a little fly on the wall.

I can hear you recovering!

Menacing!

Never tasted it but looks and sounds good. I like the melody.

Sorry you are/were sick. Take care! Music is medicine especially with a tone like that.

Cool combinations here. Great playing.

I heart Scarlatti! My fave composer. Look at his fingers! How fine they are! Beautifully done Chris. Thanks!

Very merry in a relaxed lock-in kinda way!

Superhero soundtrack!

"*I plugged my Fender Mustang directly into the Zoom H2 and monitored with head phones while sitting on my bed and played around.*" I just love that. Tranquil and relaxing. Drifting away with eyes wide open...

*hides*

I love your voice reef. Excellent tune and production - your acoustics sound especially nice.

This is brilliant! Would you consider doing a collaboration sometime?

I suck at most electronica genres (like trance - I don't like the 4 on the floor aspect) and I don't think I've given country a serious try yet as well.

excellent collab!!

nice work - very rich - listened to it several times.

Well, since I have not used MOTU SI I can't compare but you can since you can hear my Kontakt 4 sample set. Sonar 8.5 was / is a radical upgrade if you write more than classical music. But if one were strictly classical composition minded a better (rational!) program than Sonar to score with would make more sense to invest in than sonar 8.5 . I look forward to hearing what you are working on!

I own the piano score but I found an accurate score as a midi file on the net and started from there. (That saved a 2 or 3 hours at my pace.) Then I loaded the file into Sonar 8.5 and orchestrated it by assigning instruments to the VSTi called Kontakt 4 and its Vienna Symphony samples. Adjusting velocities / color / and a few notes took 3-4 hours. The most difficult part was creating the final mix which I'm still not 100% happy with.

lovely, touching. A nice song and excellent vocals / lyrics.

Great vocal harmonies!

Hi Richard, there is a contest to make microtonal demo tunes with MOTU. Selection of contestants is over and now we all must make at least 3 microtonal demonstration pieces. The Dance of the Unicorn is in a werckmeister equal beating variant. this prelude is very nice. the descending register pattern is a nice variation. I see you sneak in the left hand :-)

Excellent!!

very different - twitch dance :-)

one of my favorites by you!

one word... Chills.

Nice - I love the rolling piano.

I like this a lot!!

Nice piano solo!

Hi Richard - I don't like being bored :-) I also am experimenting with some success with microtonal music as well. Drop by www.notonlymusic.com and www.chrisvaisvil.com some time. Now.... this is a lovely sensitive piece!

so nice... :-)

Nice!!! You make the piece come alive!
