All of this is performed - Norm's many percussion devices, Fender Mustang, and GR-20 driven by the guitar for the rest of the voices excepting a bit of a choir at the end.
Ha! This was great fun for me generating a large number of interesting spooky noises -all acoustically- in my laboorratory. The chilling errie wind sound was created with a long spring, attached to the head of a small hand drum (known as a “spring drumâ€, of course) and the “opening crypt†sound was generated by running my thumb nail down the spring under tension. And any time I get to hit the 30†Paiste gong, you know I’m smiling –evilly in this case.

I extended my very short Halloween piece - doubled it in length - not too hard considering it still is only a minute long.
This is using the Garritan Personal Orchestra sample set.
2 organs, piano, flute, bassoon.

Last one for today, promise. Two Old Friends - again from 1983 and created using 2 cassette decks,4 channel mixer, Fender Mustang, vocals. Lyrics by Evan Harrington.
Two Old Friends
Leaves bear mark of the changing of season
Soon to be crushed…
I also recorded this once through on the Martin and Zoom H-2 yesterday as well. One day I'll do a decent version of this, I promise. For now this is my modest Happy B-day to John.

I resorted to some unmarked old CDRs in the car today on my way to and from my Dad's (I brought him a new laptop) and found one of the earlier collaborations between Norm and myself.
This is dedicated to the families who have (and still…
love the sound - you should try to get a convolution reverb sample of this space. I'm not quite sure how to do that but the info has to be on the net somewhere.
Had a couple of ours spare this morning while the gang have gone for a bike ride/walk....so here goes...
Lets Fly (Lyrics)
Everybody's laughing but I feel like to cry
As I watch the party pass us by
I don't know what to think or what to do
Baby…

Well Reg has just realised that he keep making the same mistakes with his relationships as he always has....the first song from the Newly built cellar.....Jim just had to jump o this one............
Hello pain my old friend it's so nice to see…
Yes indeed Jim Morrison in vocal tone but perhaps Ton Waits in lyrics. Excellent if being thrashed with a pepper sprayed cat-o-nine tails is excellent :-)
i was trying to work on a piece for a shark video of mine, but this is what came out instead,, my piano moments collections are the small musical threads that emerge amongst/while i am working/thinking about other things,,,

Oh yet another nostalgic blast from the past. I found this unbelievable backing track surfing the web some years ago. I usually never use backing tracks because they usually suck bad . But this one is like having mitch and noel at your side. I…
I was finally able to finish this one up over this past week. Like always I am never satisfied but I have come to a point where I just tell myself enuff is enuff and move on to the next song...pheww! Hopefully it sounds good on everyone elses…

Wonderful stuff guys!
Lovely medieval feel!
Ah, dark shadows indeed! That was gorgeous!
great classic moving organic underbelly piece
Very cool.
Nice and slightly crazy vampirian atmosphere, an interesting song, good work!
Which ferret is the witch ferret?
Bach meets Dracula! Awesome.
pretty fucking cool!
cool cover Vais.
Well, you couldn't have picked a harder one to sing and you pulled it off!
Nice one buddy!
Cool science fiction spirited fantasy trip. Nice crazy atmosphere, well implemented!
Love The Beatles, cool cover,
note.. one (egg) and one (egg) and one (egg) makes and omelet not? but a broken one while sitting like a cornflake with milk and honey, ever so.
This tune brings me back into some great times man. Still dig this collab.

please post your version of fearless!
12 equal version http://alonetone.com/vaisvil/tracks/fearless-2
much tighter! and nice keys!
funny thing about it is that I thought Steve was trying to get rid of me. Perhaps he was a master of the mind f**k
Cool song... it sounds like the green fairy visted!
you know... its a girl on the phone call - maybe Norm got Desirae busted for indecent behavior! Gosh I don't want he after me though!
Catchy title indeed! Nice song!
brilliant!

Frank wants to re-record this. I think we will be doing that sooner than later.
Yay!! It's fixed.
I was :-) Everyone needs a song in the wholetone scale
Hi Richard, no I didn't stay up for that. I was too busy playing with my soft synths :-) This is a beautiful piece.
You Eric's son? Awesome!
such a *big* sound! this is excellent!
Very funky indeed!
This is quite awesome, by far the best tune from that album and performed extremely well here!
love it!
