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

As I had nothing better to do last night, I had this great idea that I would construct a rhythm for the 24 hour challenge. This would be different: a 24 minute drum solo (I mean, who wouldn't love that?). I even had a perfect bass riff: the "Mother…
I couldn't talk for a while afterwards and I felt like a moron after listening to my vocals, but it had to be done :) So no laffin'!
Our attempt to be on the roof of Abbey Road Studios if only for a moment!
The Lineup:
Guitars: gtalfsen
Piano…
drip by drip..
I did the guitar and bass tracks first, then procured my 10 year olds cello for the main bass line :) I also tried my luck playing cello with a bow on this track- which was a new experience.
The trumpet and violin bits are played…
Had these backing tracks laying around on my drive for a while and didn't know what to do with them, so grabbed my Ebow and a fretless electric that I built for myself a couple years ago and had a go. My fretless playing is really in its infancy…
this is great!!! I love the jazz / spaces blues vibe. The harmony leads are seriously impressive! How'd did you make your fretless? I recently made one myself - amazing how low the action is now.
Stealin' Pumpkins off the vine...
Such good fun I do it all the time.
Single Gon Bops conga track miced for heavy bass. And 2 tracks of cow bell, of course.
4/4 200bpm
this is ok - I must admit I'd like to hear this with some shuffling percussion and a bass line to paste it together - and bring out that lead instrument a bit more. Its always dangerous to compose someone else's piece - so forgive me if the idea sounds ludicrous.
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!

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.

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.

I think I like this one the best out of the bunch - especially during the choir.

truly wild excesses of sound!
I really like this!!
