This an improvisation in 17 notes per octave with layered software synthesizers. Specifically, various percussion ensembles, french horn, piano, and two synthesizers. At one point I forgot what in the world I was doing because I transposed the…

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.)

An unusual traditional tune from the first Scartaglen album way back in 1984. Going through stuff the other day and ran across the LP and couldn't even remember the tune or having recorded it. I played guitar on this track

well - I'm asking for a collaboration - that is the story - I intend to add another bass line though. I've had troubles with my computer the past couple days

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.

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~
Comments made by vaisvil
excellent work!
thank you for "playing" me :-)
This rocks!!
nicely minimal!
nice I like the sound sin the panning sweeps a lot.
peaceful - wonderfully chilled - I enjoyed it very much!!
I love this!!! Excellent!
great!!
is this slide bass then? or bass and slide guitar? sounds cool regardless.
this is very cool. I like the bigness of the sound a lot.
remixed it down? I love how your vocals sounds like Louis Armstrong.
this reminds me of Schoenberg's op 19 in its depth despite brevity.
wow man - just wow~ !!
and - you are on a roll!!
man you got soul!! Are there really two Regs?
well - I'm asking for a collaboration - that is the story - I intend to add another bass line though. I've had troubles with my computer the past couple days
I like it! Can I do something to / with / about / for it?
very good story
man, did you write me into your will like you said??? :-)
wow! motown indeed~~!!
