Love it, great vocal a kind of Brian Ferry, feel, and that 6o's vibe excellent we should form the mutual appreciation society. Enjoying it ............. and the solo Yeah!... have mentioned the melody...........
I electrified my psaltery and played it in various ways in an tuning adjusted by ear. Probably some JI of some type then. I played along with some modified drum loops and ran it through effects of course.
Well, you are taking me around the world today.
I'm in the Far East now!
of course, if Sister wasn't wearing my headphones, I would hear it better. But sounds wonderful anyway.

As the title says I spent some time with my 17 et guitar. I purposefully tried doing non-12 sounding stuff with what I think is moderate success. I believe I will have to resort to some "dots" to get some new scales in 17 et down - there just…

ahhhh gong sounds with the right gong I could start the next ten works I write just to have in the first few seconds of the song gonged would be too cool. :) my friend has a 13 inch gong but I don't think I could get a clear sample ..,

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!
CROSS-OVER POLYRHYTHMS
This is actually a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with **different meters** (i.e., a different numbers of beats/measure) are played at the **same tempo**: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms…
Many nebulae form from the gravitational collapse of gas in the interstellar medium. As the material collapses under its own weight, massive stars may form in the center, and their ultraviolet radiation ionises the surrounding gas, making it visible…
Did the guitar tracks first, followed by bass, then drums and vocals last. I wrote this song in a bookstore, after I came home and recorded it, I realized I made the song too short for all the lyrics.

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.
Sung By John B - he also does most of the instrumentation. My contribution is simply that I wrote the lyrics and composed the music, and if you listen closely I play the guitar parts. A cross Atlantic collaboration.

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.
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 :-)
Wanna go for a ride? Hop on in! (Many thanks to JQScutt for his excellent guitar work!)

Have you heard this story of the Hot Rod Race…
Took sandbag's [Andromeda 1](http://alonetone.com/sandbags/tracks/andromeda-1) and applied some BigSeq2 and LiveCut.
Added a little FM8 underneath.
And this happy little accident came out.

Woooo, agree with the warships thang! I'm on the argo! Rowing from Talos!!
fascinating from start to finish. i want some synths to have a play around. need a change
Yes - I love it. 'nuff said!
Great sound like a bootleg of a live Doors gig. Excellent

Am completely behind on my listens, but could hear Bethan playing this and had to know what it was - very compelling!
mid section took me off balance man! trippy guitars..right on!
like the low-fi intro...very sharp observation and tight percussion skills here.
Very cool experimental piece!
evoking
Ha, sounds like a challenge. Yep, it was! I love that drum beating, conjours up the idea of Roman Warships.
s'quite a journey that.. a tense but strangely enjoyable one.. certainly never gets dull!
Nice atmosphere and detail here. Fitting title, lone contemplation...
Dramatic elements, somewhat formal/conceptual result.

Wonderful collab.
Powerful stuff indeed. You captured the flavour perfectly.
Ooh, eerie!!

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?

excellent collab!!
nice work - very rich - listened to it several times.

Great vocal harmonies!
