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 :-)

this is like saws but sounds like a tube or bottle getting blown into :) it is hard to believe your story(LOL) next time bring film this is just dying for footage to put it with... :p
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…
I have mashed Shane Cadman and Chris Vaisvil and myself. this is a neat mix -- I took Shane Cadman's song here and then with Chris's mandolin work I stretched it out to match the length of Shane's Song as well as doing the same with two drum…
Nice neoclassical trio - very pleasant!
The octave mandolin is available at music stores that deal in folk / country instruments. I bought mine used and is made by Trinity College. Not sure if they are still in business. Its double the size and not surprisingly tuned as a regular mandolin but an octave below. Search for Sierra Hull on youtube - excellent mandolin player and has some videos that compare the two.
So, here is the third and final Movement of my first Piano Concerto...have really enjoyed this project. I will soon now be adding the complete Work to this site too.
A collaboration with Chris Vaisvil! I'm so jazzed he took a Thumbjam sketch of an idea and ran with it. Either an alternate Star Wars imperial march or Amon Duul jamming with Mahavishnu, don't know which.
Chris Vaisvil: guitars
Kavin.: Synths…
Roland SE-02 through EHX Stereo Memory Man -> Zoom RFX-300. Title comes from a combination of the time length, and the fact that it was created for the current Sound-In for 1-7/1/2021.
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.
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.

On theme and on message! Really like this! To quote Rodney King - "I just want to say – you know – can we all get along? Can we, can we get along?"
nice work - somewhat subdued and introspective
nice work here!
Thank you for putting this together! Sounds great!

Thanks for the collaboration - all I can say is - I'd like to do more. :-)
It is so hard to cut through the end of RPM - I really like what you added to my bass line! Thank you for this! Your work is excellent!
https://youtu.be/7QXKRH0R4Og is the video for it
There are some definitely micro tonal inflections here!
beautiful!
the heavy flanging is a treat! I'll diverge from Bill and say its bigger birds at 14:00. this is cool!
Some excellent effect manipulations going on here!
