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…

Caveat emptor: I did absolutely none of the drumming in this piece.
ANOTHER WORLD PREMIER! FIRST RECORDING OF THIS PATTERN - EVER!
My friend Kokou "Alex" Yemey delighted me with another visit this evening. He played "Aju" - all 5 tracks…
This is so complex rhythmically that I don't know *how* to play along. I'm not sure if one should - it stands on its own - wow. This is a lesson here. Please send Alex my regards for his skill and sharing his cultural heritage.

Thanks for the listen and comment! Well, no, I was a short haired old man when that solo happened (anyone over 29 is old of course). I don't know what PiL means.
A short improv piece. I'm starting a new project, where I will post at least one improv video/recording online each week, and at the end of each month collate them into an album.
This is the first one. Since July is almost over, I figure I…
This is a tune that's been on the back burner for a bit. I was looking to get a dark Ultravox kind of sound. Anyone feel like puttin' on their Midge Ure hat???
Anyway, these aren't the droids your looking for.
Move along..............Move along.
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
Oh yeh love a fretless bass Very cool. And thanks for your recent comment.
Wow nice ride...the bass, guitar and Sonar percussion all blended in right.
Cool electronica! 0.57721566490153286060651209008240243104215933...
wickedly heavy, great!
agree with SS. the bass line is bas ass/
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.

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.

I feel like I'm a beatnik scene with a scanner - very odd vibes - nice!!

wow! this weird! in the best way!! Is that your guitar beating away?
This was one of the better collaboration experiences I have had - I really like what we ended up with.

love this video!
excellent! I love the percs and the mix of elements in this!
cool piece!
Nice and smooth.

interesting ! What is your set up? It sounds as if you were recorded in a hall.
I especially like parts I and II - nice work!!
boy, are you ever going through a creative period - everything is sounding top notch - I love the percussion + ambiance style here. World electro?
interesting aggressive minimal electro
nice themes!
