Adventurous and epic!

Laid back, twinkly playing.

Intriguing and intricate sounds! Gorgeous!

Nice! Love that sound. Planning on adding a nylon string to my arsenal soon

This was well done. I really enjoyed it towards the end as it built up and became prettier. What about that picture then. Where are we, somewhere like Venezuela?

Love the picture! You know I'm not technical, but I really enjoyed the right ear on the head set. This is a lovely piece.

I do have to say that your composition is ideal for the subject matter. That was great!

Why are all the pretty ones insane? This is unnerving and scary. Thanks!! :)

Amazing!

Woah, awesome percussion - this has some guts! Epic underpinnings! Clever vocals interweaven into a powerful soundscape! A masterpiece!

Lovely!

some really nice guitar phrasing in this.

ahhhh so so nice ., very well done. we need to collaborate on something at some point with soft guitar work like this looped through the piece :)

interesting tones,,great use of GPO, very nice sound quality,,

What a creepy bastard JD was. Good thing they got rid of him in jail. Goes to show you, looks are deceiving. Sad to think humans used to eat one another all the time. Nature can be such an ugly b!tch. A documentary on him said he ate people because he wanted to keep them close, so they would never leave.

Such a harmless looking beast....

Terrific! I like the bits that start at 1:30 or so. Cymbals are perfect.

goodness this is pretty, gravity is everywhere. so I have found ...

that second dissonant chord construction is tense or intense or extensively extreme// this is so neat of a composition it could go on and on IMO :) well done..

Love the Eastern flavours you're cooking with more and more these days - great stuff from El Norm also.

nice, really nice!

Hi - I enjoyed this composition very much. I would like to mention though that the volume was very low. So much so I have to normalize it to listen reasonably. Do you lack software to do this type of manipulation? (or was this on purpose?) In any event this piece impressed me enough to go through your series of sonatas!

I enjoyed playing on this thanks Norm! - no guitars harmed in the improvisation

nice progression

welcome! And excellent track!

Aengus is all Ethno 2.

I love your voice reef. Excellent tune and production - your acoustics sound especially nice.

This is brilliant! Would you consider doing a collaboration sometime?

I suck at most electronica genres (like trance - I don't like the 4 on the floor aspect) and I don't think I've given country a serious try yet as well.

excellent collab!!

nice work - very rich - listened to it several times.

Well, since I have not used MOTU SI I can't compare but you can since you can hear my Kontakt 4 sample set. Sonar 8.5 was / is a radical upgrade if you write more than classical music. But if one were strictly classical composition minded a better (rational!) program than Sonar to score with would make more sense to invest in than sonar 8.5 . I look forward to hearing what you are working on!

I own the piano score but I found an accurate score as a midi file on the net and started from there. (That saved a 2 or 3 hours at my pace.) Then I loaded the file into Sonar 8.5 and orchestrated it by assigning instruments to the VSTi called Kontakt 4 and its Vienna Symphony samples. Adjusting velocities / color / and a few notes took 3-4 hours. The most difficult part was creating the final mix which I'm still not 100% happy with.

lovely, touching. A nice song and excellent vocals / lyrics.

Great vocal harmonies!

Hi Richard, there is a contest to make microtonal demo tunes with MOTU. Selection of contestants is over and now we all must make at least 3 microtonal demonstration pieces. The Dance of the Unicorn is in a werckmeister equal beating variant. this prelude is very nice. the descending register pattern is a nice variation. I see you sneak in the left hand :-)

Excellent!!

very different - twitch dance :-)

one of my favorites by you!

one word... Chills.
