This is a serial improvisational piece (excepting some drum loops) in John O’Sullivan’s Blue JI tuning (which I rather like) – all of the instruments, African log drum, Nigerian log drum, Krin slit drum, Teponaxtli, Toere, Kaekeeke, Kalaau…
I'm surprised I forgot to post this collaboration with Norm and Char.

Well, I finally got my hands on a 17 note per octave electric guitar thanks for Brad Smith, a local Luthier who did a lovely conversion of a Jay Turser strat copy I bought at the local Guitar Center for $65. The guitar is nicely very bright…

Beautifully dark and mysterious that then explodes into barely contained chaos that ends in a plaintive song of longing. That's how I hear this. Wonderful piece Ben!

My first experience with a mountain dulcimer was one that was refretted with glued on bits of wire to make each step 65 cents instead of the usual 100 cents. I like your calming playing. It is like a conversation with friends by a fire under the starry sky.

wow...
another,, very creative take on our musical world,, i really enjoy your musical explorations,,, sometimes i feel like someone in the old world in the 1500's listening to tales brought from the new world across the sea.... very interesting
it is like playing to random computer musical notes. very well done.
It's like an Irish folk cinematic feeling:)
Like. Thanks for bringing my favorite Poe(m) to life!
This just reconstructed my mind and further more it's brilliant Chris!
very nice,, i am just starting to use the garritan po, think i'll look into the world samples,,,, very nice piece
*staring at his stat copy in the corner.....* do you need more notes lil' buddy? do you? ;) Really dig the sound!
Sounds a bit like Ravel's Bolero. How about a bit more volume on the music and a bit less on the percussion? John.
Very nice tune. but now you make me consider buying the Garritan World set too. ;-) These tuning capabilities in the new player are really awesome
Nice one Chris. Very pretty. Love the pipes and the percussion.
Oh well recited. I thought it may have to compete with the band but no, that was great!
Such a pleasing tone!
Most interesting, different and well played.
That's so cool, and great tone! I want more notes too!
Oh boy. Don't forget to eat & sleep once in a while. I can't wait to hear what you come up with on this thing...
Interesting. I'd love to have a go at one of those myself
where do we start?. Have you something in mind?
I'd love to.
nice! and such a comfy sounding tuning.
