Well, I feel almost human today. Been a rough few days with the flu or something. I'm running on a baked potato - seems I can't each much else yet. It was ironic that I became sick just when I went to pick up a Boss Loop Station I found for half…

I hope you can see the above picture - I scored a 15 chord autoharp zither for $42 on ebay. 4 old guitar strings later (I save them... just in case :-) and a tuning against an organ patch she is working nicely again. Can't wait to show Emily…
In response to a suggestion of Dr. Ozan Yarman I tried a tuning he created for a different project. I realized the composition using Garritan Personal Orchestra Baroque organs, Garritan World sample set Oud and Santoor samples performed on an…
This is a piece written for a small ensemble of Violin, Viola, Cello, Double Bass, Flute, French Horn and Percussion in harmonic series tuning using a section from harmonic 12 to 30 reduced to an octave tuning of 15 steps.

This starts at essentially the same improvisation pattern and then travels elsewhere - I think I like the Martin version better myself. This one is in stereo.
ok this one playes for me,,,haven't heard the martin one yet,, but this is very nice,,, i know how multi talented you are,, but there's just something about hearing you playing on a solo guitar,, that just stands out so profoundly... this is great,,,,well well played

i was trying to work on a piece for a shark video of mine, but this is what came out instead,, my piano moments collections are the small musical threads that emerge amongst/while i am working/thinking about other things,,,
Oh yet another nostalgic blast from the past. I found this unbelievable backing track surfing the web some years ago. I usually never use backing tracks because they usually suck bad . But this one is like having mitch and noel at your side. I…
I was finally able to finish this one up over this past week. Like always I am never satisfied but I have come to a point where I just tell myself enuff is enuff and move on to the next song...pheww! Hopefully it sounds good on everyone elses…
yes, I found a midi file and applied my samples and a bit of editing and re-tuning to it. It must of taken forever to put this into a computer. http://www.classicalarchives.com/midi.html
Pretty whores and fat queers
make bicycle parts in a factory
not far from here, and it
doesn't make a difference
if its weird or if its strange
just superficial words
from a long gone age
and I couldn't hold a candle to them
and I wouldn't…
most any comments I get are on facebook these days and occasionally my blog.
This video is really raw and weird!! I like it!
Is the audio post a stretch of the video post?
This rough track uses my Blue Just Tuning system (go to www.johnsmusic7.com for details and a photo of the guitar). This is the same tuning Chris Vaisvil used in his Excluded By Peers piece. I hope to add some lead to the track soon.
Not sure where I was going with this, but it ended up quite dreary for what I thought were quite motivating lyrics.
Watch this space, it may well appear again with more upbeat music.

Comments on vaisvil's stuff
funny post. I like the interuption.
Sounds pretty sweet! gotta love guitar center.....
Loving this sound wow!! and the video got me too. Hope your feeling better. What did you edit the video in?
This video/improv event you mention. Where is this event located? This song isn't playing. The video is working. 100% great!
Nice improve, microtonal you say>?
Totally inspired! Zither adds real zing!
Kinda unnerving!
Very affecting. Powerful stuff, Mr V.
Very cool, I love this. Excellent playing.
Agree with John excellent
No need Chris, I found the scale on your website. John.
Wow, this is great. Chris, could you please email me the scale and the name of the scale. I want to know more. John.
so nice, I am thinking cutting the segments even closer - together and then stretching it to about and hour plus :) ?
oh I really like this so so much :)
I like the guy trying to sell you the guitar in the mist of a record :) excellent RL effect.
ok this one playes for me,,,haven't heard the martin one yet,, but this is very nice,,, i know how multi talented you are,, but there's just something about hearing you playing on a solo guitar,, that just stands out so profoundly... this is great,,,,well well played
hi Chris,, i get no sound from this?? just me or the site? or....but i would love to listen
Yeah but 2 grand! Makes a difference! All the same, as I don't know what I'm talking about, this is still a lovely sound and well played.
Ooooh, is that what they sound like! Well played Chris.
Slide mandolin? Now I'm really livin!!

Hi Richard, no I didn't stay up for that. I was too busy playing with my soft synths :-) This is a beautiful piece.
You Eric's son? Awesome!
such a *big* sound! this is excellent!
Very funky indeed!
This is quite awesome, by far the best tune from that album and performed extremely well here!
love it!

and your grapics are stunning!
delicious!
nicely done! Love the vocal harmonies!
Thanks for listening. It is a 12 tet steel string acoustic guitar harmonically filtered with D 36.8 Hz as the root. So I'd say its harmonic series.
oh vocal harmonies to die for....
excellent!!
