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. ;)

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 :)

Originally recorded in 1996, this is an excerpt of a Time Lag Accumulation of sounds from a Roland JX-3P, with some backward voices (the tape was "liberated" from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation after its useful days were over and re-used…
I support the CBC liberation front! Definitely a unique soundscape here! I wonder what you and Bill Newbold could come up with in a collaboration. It might be fun!
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…
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
You have this way of inserting an oriental flavour into your music which I find most attractive. Started my busy day off nicely, thank you.
flowing,,to this,,,yes
Well, I was spellbound!
Can I get to the video from you site?
Nice! Saw the video on FB...how's little Gandhi doing?
Love the jazzy feel to this
The photo says it all, and the music proves it!
Aaaahhhhh....walgreens...endless lines of sick people waiting for pills delivered to you by the clerk that the last guy just pissed off..."Get your meds and get outta here"...*shivers* Nice one
I'm not sure what's happening here, but I think you might want to get those prescriptions filled! j/k! Great track

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.

Thank you for putting this together! Sounds great!
