Well, you are not going to often hear a 70′s metal piece from me. I have to plead affection for genre as it is what I grew up with in my garage band days. In this piece I put to use my stratocaster copy strung up with “Not Even Slinky…

This is the instrumental version of A Cast of Billions. I have a hard time judging my own voice (thus a true singer I am not) and it seems this vocal was rougher than most of mine. So, lets try over again with this mix.

I think I bit off more than I could actually chew this time and I apologize to Norm and Reg about that. This is a setting of verses from Contemporary English Bible Version of Daniel Chapter 6. I don’t think I orchestrated as much drama from…
This Prelude in 18ET comes from a challenge on the microtonal tuning list to write something in the whole tone scale that didn’t sound like Debussy or Satie. This prelude has decidedly Debussian whole tone passages. All 3 whole tone scales…

I put together a patch of 6 oscillators using frequencies 198, 210, 220, 228, 230 and 280. I recorded the piece interactively playing as I felt them by triggering. A previously recorded loop often playing in reverse was also used. Produced…
starts out with a hint of Ludwig and becomes full on contemporary classical. Really like the quiet part at ~2 with the sustain pedal down. I don't know why - 3:18 started to echo Gershwin for me though it really doesn't sound like his style. Overall its a really nice piece with a multifaceted set of moods and thoughts - I enjoyed this very much!
This is really an intriguing piece as the song writing is somewhat Beatlesque with a totally modern sound. I love this even more than the previous view into this piece.
No one's left
and I'm afraid
I've got no choice.
I've got it made.
But I've known for a very long time
that I can't consent to the shape
that I've been assigned
without a chance to really define...
But four young Oysters hurried up,
All eager for the treat:
Their coats were brushed, their faces washed,
Their shoes were clean and neat--
And this was odd, because, you know,
They hadn't any feet.
Four other Oysters followed them,
And yet another four;
And thick and fast they came at last,
And more, and more, and more--
All hopping through the frothy waves,
And scrambling to the shore.

You got some lungs when you want them! Cool and bold, great feel!
Out of body music.
I still use my Casio. It's a workhorse around here.
Great gear man. I remember those days. Your showing us your age :) Downloaded for my collection.....

I REALLY love the R channel guitar riff.
I'm like a clock.
Nice middle Eastern flavors! Really dig the percussion!
The music and rhythm are perfect for the story. Reg is great as well, as usual.
Very melodic Chris. Beautifully done.
pangs of ELO vs Beatles nice tune CV
dude I can feel you breaathing! X3 this sounded really cool, keep it up.
wicked guitar
Excellent cave passage,,,micro-tonal
Ozzy Jr. Vaisvil
Sweet guitar licks
Cool sounds! Great crunchy percussion and ingenius clocky sounds. "Clocky"...yeah, I know what I mean! Ooh, sax!
Quite a departure! Vocal reminds me of Space and Elvis Costello! Great track!
Throbbin'!
It's a big story to tell in under 5 minutes... but I like what you have done and Reg's vox is great as usual.

great music, it is like a speech. Prodding, pleading, shouting.
nice vamp!
Such a huge expanse is painted here!
A cool microtonal experimental piece!
This is beautiful!

I really like how unusual this sounds
beautiful in its sadness
really well done!
this may be long, but it isn't empty. I really, really like this one!
it opens like a hurdy-gurdy! Your layering is so orchestral - wonderful work
This is cooler - the SE-02 seems to be quite a nice synth~!
love the runs in this piece! Very powerful!
awesome!!!
I'm in awe of how you make these pieces every week. This is excellent contemporary classical music. I agree with Bill, beautiful ending!

Lola has my respect. What synth was slept on?
