Hell yeah man have at it! If you need me to email you the files let me know. As for vocals I had my wisdom teeth pulled last friday so no vocals from me right now..might be able to drool onto the mic for a bit, but that's about it. ;)
not nearly as nice as the original

nonetheless I'm hopelessly in love with the flatted 5th theme.
I liked it. In my music theory course.."Many moons ago" my teacher only played piano. Being horrible with sheet music as I am, it took forever to transcribe it over to guitar and drove me insane. So I say good at you Chris. If I only had then attention span for music like you and Norm do :)

This is a video piece made for the ImprovFriday drone theme event which used my DIY 9 string canon, DIY electrified 8 string psaltery, viola bow, ebow, and fingers. The tuning in unknown – just something I did by ear.

very nice,,, im going to have to come back and watch the video,, in a way it reminds me of the softer side of Michael Hedges, have you ever heard of him? if not i think you would really enjoy looking him up,,,, this is very beautiful!! perhaps we could figure out some sort of piano and guitar colab... though im not sure how that might work with the tunings you use,, but perhaps i can re-tune my yamaha i use for recording,,, or we take care Richard,, and once again well done!!
This is an experiment where I slowed down Norm Harris’ percussion track “7th Son†http://alonetone.com/norm/tracks/7th-son and slowed it down by a factor of five and ran it through effects and such – and then played along with my 17…
I played 12 string guitar and 5 string bass along with Norm's original percussion track http://alonetone.com/norm/tracks/7th-son. The only effects were a bit of attack shaping on the bass (compression w/o compressing).
I did this kind of oddly…
Samples used in this tune from the NY subway this summer. Inspired by Dave Dunseath
3-12, just uploaded a new version of this with guitar- and some other changes
So this is the source for the mixes I am doing just performed / recorded / video-digitized this performance too. If you would like to remix this I suggest doing so from this file or letting me send you the 60mg 320 kbs file of these sounds…
this is really exciting progressive experimental sound and video Bill! You need to find a theremin - you playing it in a video like this would look so cool!
wow! the rabbit hole is deep here. this is one of your best ever. I'd love an album of this! Downloaded.
I'm checking out your other new ones after this finishes. I'm at 6 min right now.
Its done. wow - this is really something else. Excellent work!
And another one I didn't share from the same day. I must of been in a funk where it all sounded really bad. This improvisation concentrates more on melodic aspects of 22 edo though there are some harmonies.

I'm just following my ears. I suspect my mind imposes more order on the chaos than just running wild - also I suspect it is not a strict "anything" like a MOS.
Back to basics here. recorded with the Yeti mic.
Ramblin' round your city,ramblin' round your town
I never see a friend I know
As I go ramblin' round boys
As I go ramblin' round
My sweetheart and my parents I left in my old hometown…

ok this is the center portion of the the tape transfer and remix so if you like the intro and end so on this just gets more intense that it is centered and focused some.
to create your own new work play the video and music together .. each time…

The song makes me feel that the fake life I lead is still stranger then the real one that happens.
very nice writing,,, the sound is very crisp and clear,,,
“Something has changed. The world feels strange now. Even the way the clouds move isn’t right.†Wow, powerful stuff.
A most mournful and lovely piece with a definite feel of Japan. A perfect accompaniment to your amazing photograph.
Fantastic playing there. Congratulations. Pity it's only a minute long though lol
Wow factor here! Fascinating video, kept stopping by the way, but shows that life still goes on. I like way you mixed the images. Wonderful chorale!
A most interesting and beautiful listen with lots of atmosphere. Lovely Chris!
Most interesting, thanks for it. Your music fits the content perfectly and adds stirring atmosphere.
*impressive!*
i thoroughly enjoyed this. jus read the description n understood as far as.. this is a guitar piece! some people really know their shit! tis a good thing
Almost sounds like a bit of Paulstretch going on there in parts.
very nice,,, im going to have to come back and watch the video,, in a way it reminds me of the softer side of Michael Hedges, have you ever heard of him? if not i think you would really enjoy looking him up,,,, this is very beautiful!! perhaps we could figure out some sort of piano and guitar colab... though im not sure how that might work with the tunings you use,, but perhaps i can re-tune my yamaha i use for recording,,, or we take care Richard,, and once again well done!!
I love the beats...wow! Kinda spooky this one! Very inventive!!
Picking up some medieval flavours towards the end - very nice!
Love the reverse touches - reminds me of something I was working on, but this is way better.
Lovely outdoorsy feel. Norm's beats cut through beautifully, while the 12 string holds my attention.
Great expression here! (Also, your "about" pics are fabulous!)

the lyrics are so true...
great guitar riff in the opening! And I love the vocal effects!!
Cool - but I think I've heard this before ;-)

oh wow - James Bond 22nd century style!
The Texas Tavern serves cheesy westerns (cheese, fried egg, burger, bun) in the downtown of Roanoke Va.
nice meditation!
this is extremely cool! much enjoyed!!!
great!!
I like this a lot - more than like this is great! To my ears it sounds like a microtonal progressive rock song.
I'm watching the video. This is truly impressive and progressive art!

that genesis piece is beyond my skill to play - but it took a bit of work to get it to be nice with my software.
I am amazed at how you constantly pull new textures from your equipment. Very cool - parts sound like a futuristic police chase.
