This is a solo piano piece performed on a M-Audio 88es driving pianoteq which was re-tuned to Gene Ward Smith's 17 per octave equal beating dwarf(<17 27 40|). The piece was originally recorded in pianoteq using the standalone mode and then…
Thanks once again for stretching my ear's ability to appreciate alternate tunings. You have always been on the cutting edge of this aspect of music. A rare perspective indeed, and, in contrast to the blue dwarf, fully marvelous.

Enjoying these pieces of yours in alternate tunings. Some of this reminds me of early blues recordings where certain notes were played "out of tune" because that's the way the players heard those notes. Cool stuff!

Strange to say....for some reason i can picture that little squirrel paddling off into battle.......fog in the distance...a small furry furrowed brow....with vengence in his eyes...;)
this is from last week's improvfriday and was performed on an AXiS 49 driving Kontakt's sax ensemble and jazz drum kit. The deep reverberation is on purpose.
This is for today's Improvfriday. Being all a first pass improvisation against a drum beat - there are mistakes. I did go back and spiced up the drums just a bit. everything but the drums is my Roland GR-20

yes, I found a midi file and applied my samples and a bit of editing and re-tuning to it. It must of taken forever to put this into a computer. http://www.classicalarchives.com/midi.html
Pretty whores and fat queers
make bicycle parts in a factory
not far from here, and it
doesn't make a difference
if its weird or if its strange
just superficial words
from a long gone age
and I couldn't hold a candle to them
and I wouldn't…
most any comments I get are on facebook these days and occasionally my blog.
This video is really raw and weird!! I like it!
Is the audio post a stretch of the video post?
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.
Not sure where I was going with this, but it ended up quite dreary for what I thought were quite motivating lyrics.
Watch this space, it may well appear again with more upbeat music.

I choose the light to drive away the darkness

A while back, Jim recorded a rough version of this song, and upon listening to it, I was thrown back to a day from my youth. While vacationing in Vermont, a small twister throwing…
this is actually in a microtonal tuning - but a very mild difference from the usual

Around & Around (Lyrics)
Now you are my lady and i’ll never understand why you had to runaround with that other man
you know you’d send me crazy you know that i’m not sound when you leave me…
Here's a cover of a zep classic...from Reg and Speed Demon Gene....Gene has done all the music and the mixing..thanks Gene ....and i'm responsible for the warbling..... hope you enjoy
Please - this is not the concept I asked her contribution for. I didn't feel right putting her voice up without a credit. But.... this doesn't do justice - I got things I need to do but I will have a better setting.

Weirdy stuff, I like the use of the choir, inspired touch! No, I think you are ok, I just found something belonging to you!
There's a real warmth to this - an unsettling warmth. Some of the runs remind me of church bells. Very clever.
Out there, but very interesting!
Woah, potent stuff!!!!!!!!!
Bizarre, yet Cool tune, I like the background vocals, This sounds like this could have originally been a MIDI track with new/diff samples inserted
Extremely creative! rough vikings oh yea it's the squirrel haha...what a battle!
with a viking hat....a tiny one....
Strange to say....for some reason i can picture that little squirrel paddling off into battle.......fog in the distance...a small furry furrowed brow....with vengence in his eyes...;)
Wild mechanistic nightmare with a Magma choir!
Ecumenically enchanting.
I love this, it's wonderful.
With a title like that who could resist! Great improv!
Very Nice!
Spooky AND uplifting! !
Sweet.
Smooth. Love the bass.
Good one! Very nice improv.
MIGHTY! Great title, great pic - sounds like a Bond movie but with elephants involved! Very clever.

and your grapics are stunning!
delicious!
nicely done! Love the vocal harmonies!
Thanks for listening. It is a 12 tet steel string acoustic guitar harmonically filtered with D 36.8 Hz as the root. So I'd say its harmonic series.
oh vocal harmonies to die for....
excellent!!
