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…
Starting out as a simple and awe inspiring invention, progressing to a more chaotic and demanding machine driven future. - people becoming enslaved to these devices. Feeding the machine.
Phone samples were recorded from the output jack of my…
warning!!! this is a long 10+ min instrumental
It's a piece about 4 years old that was my first attempt at using synth voices,, I am still looking for a good one,, if anyone knows.
The music itself is a tone poem, loosely dedicated to a children…
Enjoying a few tracks on this site with Indian flavor lately. My brothers legs were so red from slapping them to get the perc sounds in this track, I had to laugh, That alone was worth doing the song ;)
Enjoy # 92

Hi Richard, Thank you for your comments on my sonata 1. I don't play piano as well as I compose. While I will be posting performed piano pieces my Sontas are beyond my playing ability.

On youtube there's a short video clip of guitarist Shawn Lane (R.I.P) executing an extremely difficult chord voicing that requires extensive finger stretching, which Shawn calls "the hardest chord in the world." I altered the chord a little bit…
This is the first tune I wrote using an actual loop pedal. I really like the rawness of its form. The sound is sharp, it kind of attacks your ear.. but then after it loops around a few times, it calms down and sinks in..
I expect that there will…
Its my first attempt at writing a piece for piano. I think this would probably best be played by two players..
if I ever write out the piece on paper, it might have to be so.
I would value any of your comments greatly, as I greatly want to improve…
It was a curious and wondrous thing.
One night I was in my studio adding some percussion to the "Quiet Rituals" track by Barry van Oudtshoorn, when my 4 young children (with whom I was long over-due to be tucking into bed and reading a bed…

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.

I love the sample work !
Thanks for the listen and comment on the improv Richard!
I see in the tag that Norm was involved - very nice guys!!
love the way you handled the Indian additions - lovely!
very nice - perhaps a bit more development would be even better!

so - if I have the fret board right - stacked 5ths ? Nice work here!
cool - I've not heard an oboe ensemble before!
Excellent - what pedal are you using?
this is excellent - I love what you do with the chord stabs towards the end especially!
reminds me of KD Lang for some reason - I hope that isn't bad.
I love your toys!
this is excellent
