Don't mind the sound quality, i have listened to a lot of reel to reel, and all of my begining recordings were done on a 4 track cassette recorder. Glad you posted this one. I'm digging it. Agree with Sis, about the 7 min mark it really starts to come together...;)

Progtastic!
Love the whirling intro of the first track, and was gonna request breaking these gems down, but by 7 minutes I threw out that notion - the flow is awesome! The dreamy track at around 9 mins is just gorgeous! Lovely harmonies.
Great musicianship, awesome writing!

has the idea of a triad or circle of 9's possible here at 17 note octaves? (sorry about the difficult question but I don't have the direct control of 17 notes in equal temper right now.)

Another one from the collaboration of Chris Vaisvil, Norm and thetworegs from the album Women and Whisky together ain't no good. We hope you enjoy......................
Reg created the lyrics, vocal melody, and sang
Norm composed and played…

Come Tomorrow
-
I'm like a tumbleweed, got no roots
I'm like a climbing vine, leaves and chutes
Come tomorrow, I might not be around
Come tomorrow
I'm a reflection, you see me in your mirror
A missed connection, so far and yet right here…
had to stretch the song to fit the video but I will not be able to post the video till it is rendered and uploaded :
these latest expriments are with both the vocoders going into the other from the mixed outs of both.,

Easter Sunday,, soft bubbly white clouds float across a pale blue sky,, above a green green field, filled with rows of those who have passed away,,, my mother and father lie in one such.... fresh flowers, quiet, and sometimes not so, words drift…
Reg has had a tough week and decided to get himself wiped clean so he has took to the drink. I had some help Vocally and with the music i must thank the Red wine....Thank you
Have you ever woken up in the middle of the night with just the coolest tiny idea? perhaps a musical dream? these small pieces are just that,, tiny little musical notes that just seem to break into my normal musical day,, one take suff
think…
I couldn't resist crossing swords with Alex on this deft song of his which left me quite touchéd!
*Inspired in part at least by accidental meat on meat.*
Here's the original track.
This is really nice work - laid back and exotic. Very nice balance between the music and the percussion - tastefully done. Since I'm listening before the description went up I'm very curious who you collaborated with - they did a nice job on the music.
Solo acoustic guitar recorded January 2nd 2009. Hope to do a longer more developed version at some point ,but for now just a short version to learn more about using new DAW software.
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
well done,,, very pretty
What an interesting, if not somewhat sad, story about a poet I had never heard of. I love your bass work here.
reminds me of a mixture of such a variety of songs.
Very quite and nice...
/me smiles that wistful old man smile Good times.
Hi Vaisvil! this is simply awesome!!
Had a few listens on TIS....lots of green spice and awesome sense of musicianship with the fellows!! Love it!!
Great stuff
killer....loved every minute of it.

bad sound but cool music!
Beautiful!!

Powerful stuff indeed.
Very intense, love the hits at 4:10ish....
Uber dramatic! Thrilling, even!
Swings like a pendulum - love that sax break!
~good piano tune with blue temperament in mind~

one of my fav bowie songs - the first side of the album was superb. Like what you've done with this!
thanks for all of the work you and Norm did - it was a lot of fun!
beautiful
great song!!
I like to watch you conduct the synthesizers :-)
but who decides what is real? the dreamer or the dreamed? 2 vocoders? did you grab another microkorg?
Norm has a good ear and taste - this is truly awesome!
I really like this - I hope you don't mind I tried to add to it.
Hi John, Ediacaran Garden's mp3 is the default output of Sibelius composition software with their default guitar sound. I agree it sounds pretty good.
beautiful Richard - very beautiful.
and this is beautiful
cool vibe and story!
this could be in a music box
perhaps my favorite of the set - I like the melody
I hear something of Beethoven and Chopin in this - delicate introspection.
lovey - very soft candle light music.
This is really nice work - laid back and exotic. Very nice balance between the music and the percussion - tastefully done. Since I'm listening before the description went up I'm very curious who you collaborated with - they did a nice job on the music.
Beautiful - beautiful tone too.
one of my favorite Zep songs done right!
Were you get the wimmin? Ah, silly question ;-)
