I used sonar 8.5 matrix view to turn my M-audio 88es into a sampler keyboard - assigning samples to almost every key. Most of the samples are field recordings from today and yesterday - most of the others are recordings I made of a drumset I…

HYSTERIA
poem by: T.S. Eliot (1888-1965)

in her laughter and being part of it, until her
teeth were only accidental stars with a talent
for squad-drill. I was drawn in by short gasps…

Gary Thompson from the Music by Computer yahoo list (aka Johnny Pumphandle) remixed me version 2 of Sweeny's Agony - and blew me away - by toning down the volume he brought out a lot more soul in my opinion. I love it - and I hope you do too.

almost forgotten because while i did this in may of 2009, i forgot about it until just today may 2011,,i was walking out my studio door, when i noticed an old cd with a marking pen title,, brought it with me in the car and took a listen,, not…
Here's proof. Proof that things are a bit mysterious in my studio.
Late last night my Bass Cajon all of a sudden decided to start accompanying me on its own - without me touching it. At first I thought that some apparitional bass player had…
I went out during cover of night (to avoid looking like a total crackpot) with a violin bow & Zoom H2 digital recorder and bowed various things in the neighborhood. This is the best - a beautifully resonant 4-way stop sign.

actually both parts of the sign, or should I say, both signs, were resonant. And sure if I can talk Debbie into doing the video I'll be happy to - can't be too many traffic sign solos out there :-)

Sister Savage and Mr Sandbags collaborated on the original of this wonderful heartbreaker of a song. I've been playing it on the guitar the last few days and it always seemed to come out with a grittier tone, so i asked…
Hi, my 17 guitar is 17 equally spaced notes to the octave. So it has 5 extra frets. I tune it like a regular guitar with small adjustments to take into account the different fret placements.
you can find pictures of the guitar here

Sloane did me a favor & played an electric guitar part on this one. I had hoped to work with her more on this project, but she wound up leaving town to help take care for a recovering family member.

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.,

Jus' gets better and better! One of the killer Alonetone collab tracks.
Still totally digging this! All elements work perfectly.
What a delightful piece. Thank you for uploading.
*APPLAUSE*
!!! Brilliant! The music slinks along awesomely, but the narration is the kiss of la la la la life!
PLEASE put me in one of these some time!!! This is rich, inventive and exciting!
Chillingly atmospheric human voice sounds - very clever!
very pretty Chris I like the running chromatics here.
really digging this
I *love* this one.
Hi Chris, superb remix. The harsh lead guitar on the earlier versions was blocking out the other instruments. Very nice. John.

can't say I'm done 4ths - I'm usually fixated on 5ths - nice improv - did you play the synth at the same time?
lovely is too mild of a word - this is gorgeous and spell binding.
very enjoyable!
2 am at a smoky bar with an audience mesmerized by the band.
nice work - it must have been your doppelganger joining in !
the post was not resonant.
actually both parts of the sign, or should I say, both signs, were resonant. And sure if I can talk Debbie into doing the video I'll be happy to - can't be too many traffic sign solos out there :-)
a guitar player's guitar player you are!!
I wish I could have seen you do this - great!
this is great!
man... I can't touch this.
ole time radio!

nice smooth track - love the chilled vibe. Its all about the Neolithic Revolution!
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?
