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…

Part-1 (first 11 minutes) was calming and elusive..the second part all the way to the 22nd minute was harpooning my thoughts, just brilliant Chris! More like this...please.

Started out be an innocent little jazzy study in quartal harmony, but the DL4 was still in my signal path and things went downhill from there! Another done with my beloved '58 Stratotone
my dad at one time helped with a radio show - if I remember correctly Tilden High School in Chicago had a radio transmitter. This would have come from there. My son traced this back to about 1923. My father tended to bring things home from where he worked, etc. He even brought home, as far as I could tell, the entire Data General railroad traffic controlling computer - vintage early 70's - the programs were loaded via punched paper tapes - when it got replaced. And no, it wasn't used on this piece. Ben has it. But at 1000 Hz he should be able to get it work if he feeds it the right kind of electricity.
This is a remix of an improvised track I did for our first RPM album. For this new mix, I got rid of the vocals & added a most excellent electric guitar part by our good friend, Chris Mitchell. He listened to the track just once and proceeded…
this is based on an improve from back in jan 75, then guitarist - chris layed this riff out and i never forgot it. it was the first time i was in a band as a bassist. the rest of the riffs are mine and everything else disastrous done in this song…

We were having a little tipple down the cellar last night and we came up with a Christmas song for the festive season...hope you enjoy..........
CHRISTMAS TIME AT THE DRUNK’S HOUSE (Lyrics)
it's Christmas time in the drunks house
and the…
Well Jefferry came down the cellar this evening for a chat and a bit of consoling.................. so we decided to recant his tale of woe........................poor old Jeferry.............
I found my answer "These pieces are recorded live in my home studio. They are made with an electric guitar played through a laptop and a dedicated hardware looper."
Mozart's famous "Alla Turca" Sonata #11 in A major with period tuning and period pianoforte and period diapason of A4 = 415 Hz. Details http://chrisvaisvil.com/?p=1837
Another work in progress down the cellar.............a first cut...........
I KNOW HOW LOVE CAN FEEL(Lyrics)
I know how love can feel
I know that love can heal
i know i kneel before you
i know it can burn you, destroy you
i know how love can…
Thank you for the comments on Sympathy for a Friend. I didn't use a synthesizer. All of the sound is from one take on my 19 note per octave guitar + effects.
Sort of a Tuesday improv...
Built up around a synth texture that I built up with:
Operator->FilterStation->Volcano->Kombinat->Panstation->RP-Delay
(what's the fun in having plugins if you can't abuse them)
Heres a collab with Wildgeas Music a beautiful bit of music hope i did it justice with the vocal............
Tomorrow (Lyrics)
I know the curse of the darkness is coming
those dark nights that will feed upon my soul
with no forward glance of tomorrow…
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
My fav stones great choice cause I didn't know what I wa s going to listen to and now I got just what I wanted thanks
Cool, i like your take on a classic man..
Sweet!
I just love that growling fretless bass.
This is really cool Chris.
very cool,, Chris
Wonderful use of the voices to produce the rhythm. Lovely!
Wow... This is superb!
Much beauty can be cultivated in 80 years... and perhaps true beauty always forgets itself.
Bringin us back to the ancient times with a nice little motet/chorale. Cool! Wish I could hear it with live singers. It would be glorious.
Very interesting sound indeed.
That is most touching, yes, most touching. With fading eyesight she looks out on a world through a net curtain, not noticing! The music was perfect.
The panning enriches the intro wonderfully. Very cool sounds.
Part-1 (first 11 minutes) was calming and elusive..the second part all the way to the 22nd minute was harpooning my thoughts, just brilliant Chris! More like this...please.
Another way to enjoy this is open a second window in your browser and start Norm's Ilesa at the same time.
loving the broken timing that is synced again in the end. very very tense in the intensity of it.
Very well done!!!!!!!
Cosmic
Whose house were the other 20 seconds at? Intriguing sounds!
Stirring and mystical! My kinda morning!

I love the floating feel this has.
also - you have an astounding memory!
Ha - this riff is mine? I sure don't remember it - now I feel embarrassed about my comment :-)
excellent! I love the opening guitar riff and cool ending!
Nailed Tom's voice!
Very Tom Waits - love it!
wow your voice sounds so like the Kinks!
love your voice here!

What do you have in your ambient rig? I am enjoying your work!
Hi Bethan - I have no idea who played it - but they did an excellent job. The midi file I found somewhere in the 90's.
wow - another side totally! I like the string / piano combination.

I love that metallic sound!
The cello work is especially good.
nicely done!!
excellent - this is a great song perfectly played and sung!!
