This is an orchestral piece composed in 13 note subset of 31 notes per octave called “Orwellâ€. The purpose of this piece was to study polyphonic voice leading in a microtonal context. It was realized via Sonar 8.5 and Garritan Personal Orchestra…

I have a story to tell. Debbie and I went to a Guitar Center across town looking for a cheap used bass for me to convert to fretless like I did my Squire Strat. Well.... I ran into a really nice used Ibanez 5 string bass - with a B below E…

Hi Kirk, typically it is easiest to start talking about notes as numbers in the tuning. So say for instance a a fifth would be from note 1 (or 0) to note 12 (11). This page may help http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/19edo
*Pilón* reveals a Cuban pattern, traditionally played on Timbales, but in this case on Jr. Congas & Congas (with gated reverberation and flanger effect). The rhythm of Pilón is based on the motions of pounding sugar cane.

Hi Kavin, if your new tuning changed the length between the 5th and 6ths fret for instance then, no you could not accomplish this by changing the tuning of the open strings.
On the other hand you can make a small trip into microtonality by retuning the open strings a quarter flat or sharp relative to each other.
2011 according to Regs research was pretty shit for most apart from the couple from England......it thought i would use a Chinese theme to the music being that they own it and it was the year they were able to buy most of it cheap.....note to…
Quite excellent and I'm only 2 minutes in. This is an amazing composition of ever changing aural landscapes. Wonderful!! and I'm 14 minutes in. At 15 minutes in I downloaded this piece. By 21 minutes you have taken me to a new never seen before aural vista overlooking the eternal. What an incredible transformation to an organ-ish sound at 25 minutes. Wow... the symphonic length was filled with symphonic sound. I love your piece! The closing flute like tones from your ebow is just perfect.

This is a “cross-over” pattern. Cross-over patterns are a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with different numbers of beats/measure are played at the same tempo: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms have measures…
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.

Norm, just how many chickens have you raised? ;-)
this is an awesome tune!
Wow NPR - how cool!! And the music is great!!

good blues - could be longer with MTC shredding some blues licks
nice work!

Sad Reg, but so true for too many.
This a beautiful and indeed your arrangement is spotless
