This is the first time I picked up and tried to play a guitar that is in 88 cent equal temperament - the tuning does not contain an octave. Since this was the first time I made some mistakes. Nonetheless I think it sounds interesting.

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…

I thought a microtonal piece almost completely in absynth would be a decent goal. So, I improvised bass, lead, chords, effects in 19 notes per octave against a sequence of drum loops run through effects. Then - just to see the difference I took…

This is simple test of East-West symphonic choirs solo soprano voice and East-West Hollywood strings contra-bass. I feel its a bit reminiscent of Lord of the Rings - of course, your mileage may vary - it is a very simple and direct arrangement…

Scored for harp, flute, french horns, trombones, tuba. Still not quite as mixed as I'd like still unrealistic in places.

Norm's original 12/8 percussion track that forms the basis for the entire piece. http://alonetone.com/norm/tracks/mother-nut-drop I'm involved in a microtonal music class. We are studying 11 edo instead of the normal 12 edo (equal division…

I'll always come by to listen to the music of Middle-Earth. Perfectly captured Elven voice sound! Oh... And make sure you get in touch with an Elf that still prefers to speak Quenya if you ever get the chance to record a real one (the high-Elven speech really is quite beautiful although the Sindarin tongue has it's own elegant flow). Very cool song (coming from this card-carrying Tolkien disciple). Well done!

I'm surprised the rhythm pattern holds up as well as it does being slowed down 5X - I like the reverb that you have added. Wild stuff!

For the prices Club Med charges, I had expected a somewhat happier sounding place!

i like the way the lead guitar notes blend, is this an effects pedal? (perhaps im showing my ignorance,, oh well) in fact it seems as if many notes are bent/blended in this piece,, very cool,,,, by the way, just for reference, which CM did you say ,, i enjoyed this a lot
