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

This is the first song I uploaded to share on the internet when I first donned the name Alpha_Alpha. Thanks to fellow 'lonetoners and SoOn friends Norm and Vaisvil for contributing to make this song really special!
Having fun this week at my own expense, not my genre but what the heck. I used all the kids that were playing at my house on Monday for the chorus - had a blast.
Collaborators: my kids Dylan, Zack, Ally with Jake Henning , Haley Henning

This particular broadcast was talked out about a half hour before I went to my 'You Screwed up' meeting at school. I'd barely woken up and I was ready to Talk Hard about Life (It's capatilized because it's the only one YOU'VE got. That means it…

Hi Richard, keeping the peace in space is all guitar and percussion. I used guitar effects quite liberally on Brian's, Norm's and my parts. The opening is Brian stretched to 8x and the organ-like part in the last 3rd is Brian's guitar backwards in part and the the 2 chord set copied and pasted a few times.

did a remix of latest B-52s (ex B-52's) song "Funplex". i admit i didn't really take the time to polish this, so it might have some flaws here and there, but it was fun to do and after all, is this not what matters most? :)
and you can…
You're just kidding yourself if you thought I could resist the chance to add a bit of percussion to this wonderful song by Osckilo & Launched. I used Paiste Sound Discs to create a 3vs.4 polyrhythm against the delightful underlying 4/4 Spanish…

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....

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.

you sound like Radiohead from In Rainbows in places here!
I love this tune! I have in my car and listen to it fairly often!
dude - I love your voice! Nice wah work! Great voice by the kids!
Nice! - I like how it turns into a prog rock piece almost about 1:40 ish
the problem here is that this IS the truth. and that is sad. Nice podcast!
love the deep percussion and sexy tune!
I can't play it :-0 OR delete it...
Nice - I was wondering where you've been!! - and at least your song plays :-)
Actually, if you wanted, I could try a treatment like Keeping the Peace in Space on one of your piano pieces, if you'd like.

cool!!
all of this sounds so real!
wow~~!!
I love this~!! excellent!! How did you get the advant guard sounds?
this is beautiful and moving. I wish I could play piano this well. Awesome work Richard!
Rockin!!
nice piece - good progression - does sound western
this is so expressive, especially once the piano comes in.
if you wish for me to take down my re-mix of your piece let me know.
excellent!! I really like this collab! The voice perhaps could be a touch louder other than that this is excellent!
