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
Pianoteq…
I went out during cover of night (to avoid looking like a total crackpot) with a violin bow & Zoom H2 digital recorder and bowed various things in the neighborhood. This is the best - a beautifully resonant 4-way stop sign.
It's all getting a bit exciting here now... 13 minutes! Seriously had to turn down volume.
Feeling like I am disorientated and out of control. Very clever, epic piece Chris.

actually both parts of the sign, or should I say, both signs, were resonant. And sure if I can talk Debbie into doing the video I'll be happy to - can't be too many traffic sign solos out there :-)

A collection of four improvisations on 19 note per octave electric guitar.
Sucralose
Aspartame
Cyclamate
Saccharin
The title is a play on artificial sweeteners and a collection of songs being a suite.
Per wikipedia "In music, a suite…
The music in the video is the harmonic series from the lowest E on the piano, 41.2 Hz, and the 16 harmonics above it. No other pitch is allowed. I used Paul Stretch's filtering and compression to accomplish this BUT the piece was not stretched…
Jeff has passed over the rainbow bridge today as I held him. We went out back one last time for a few minutes until the sun came back out and it was too hot. He enjoyed that. The last thing he did was put his paw on my hand and left it there…
This one is live from the cellar last night...Unplugged recorded with one mic..so close your eyes and imagine me here alone on a wet Monday night in Sheffield in the cellar alone as Elvis and Jim had heard about an Happy hour round the corner…
I heard M.T.C's Session 1 today and thought wow!!! so asked if it was ok if i could jump on for the ride..Jim said Ok! .......so here goes.........a song about loves dream being broken.........thanks again Jim...................based around these…
I'm trying to experiment with intentionally combining two different sounds. Since I seem to find this difficult I am starting with using a drone as one of the sounds taking my inspiration from the opening tracks of the Brian Eno & Jah Wobble…
Reg has done a reading from Edgar Allen Poe's work The Raven for you this evening in one take mistakes and all ....he hopes the words wash over you with some understanding....it was a bit of a tongue twister
Reg was watching the ladies on the dance floor then suddenly one took his eye.................................a bit of noodle that turned into something........
Remastered from 4 track circa 1987. The backing track was shoved into one track (drum machine, casio CZ-101 synthesizer bass, rythmn guitar) - the vocals are buried because I wrote a song that was way way too high for my range. The backwards-ness…

Vaisvil sent me this great Blues tune and so i threw it down the cellar and Reg jumped all over it with his point of view on love being a Four letter word..........

Totally awesome, Chris. Love the mysterious flavours and that raunching bassline!
Rich, dark and mysterious. *Resists obvious joke about dream man*
Chuckie! Nice work. Ominous.
Innovative or what!!

Wow - amazing sounds - it's like being in a Tibetan Temple!
the post was not resonant.
actually both parts of the sign, or should I say, both signs, were resonant. And sure if I can talk Debbie into doing the video I'll be happy to - can't be too many traffic sign solos out there :-)
were you bowing the post or ( I assume) one of the two sign plaques?
and yes - video proof next time lol
And we have a winner in the "you might not look like a crackpot but ..." department! Love it! and Faved.

very nice - alien sounds - it should be the world anthem for the spacer world Aurora in Asimov's I Robot series.
can I set this to music?? This awesome!
I like the effects! nice groove
I do like the sound of the guitar lead 3-ish quite a lot.
Enjoyed - I like your progressive rock / electro sound here.
