(a setting of) The Conqueror Worm by Edgar Allen Poe
LO! 't is a gala night
Within the lonesome latter years.
An angel throng, bewinged, bedight
In veils, and drowned in tears,
Sit in a theatre to see
A play of hopes and fears,
While the orchestra…

what I did was play two tracks of violin with a viola bow and 1 track of fretless guitar bowed with the viola bow and finger picked with your track. I then noise reduced the takes and sliced them into appropriate loops - with the two styles of playing fretless separate into 4 channels of Sonar's Matrix view. Then I wanted more time so I took your track and reversed it and tacked it onto the end. After that I set up matrix view with the loops and effects into 4 audio channels. (guitar rig, dblue glitch, lexicon reverb, cakewalk amp sim absynth 5 effects and camel space) Some of the clips got effects as well. I then performed matrix view live against your track + reversed track. This left the clips in the audio track - some of those I randomly reversed the audio here and there. Then I mastered and uploaded. One other thing I did to you track was impose a volume envelope and then put a compressor on top - those two things kinda fight it out.
Quite excellent and I'm only 2 minutes in. This is an amazing composition of ever changing aural landscapes. Wonderful!! and I'm 14 minutes in. At 15 minutes in I downloaded this piece. By 21 minutes you have taken me to a new never seen before aural vista overlooking the eternal. What an incredible transformation to an organ-ish sound at 25 minutes. Wow... the symphonic length was filled with symphonic sound. I love your piece! The closing flute like tones from your ebow is just perfect.

Spare a thought for those with nothing this Christmas..... Homeless with no family.........and no one to help.......

This is a “cross-over” pattern. Cross-over patterns are a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with different numbers of beats/measure are played at the same tempo: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms have measures…
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.
Well heres my attempt at singing Jerusalem....i would have liked to have performed it better so that the vocal would have done Chris's music more Justice but sometimes you just have to do what you can and go with the flow........thanks Chris…
When i was a young man I stayed round a so called friends house once and heard them talking about me through the walls ........i never let on i heard.........needless to say they are no longer my friend............Hopefully they will hear the…

!!!!!!! I don't think we're in Kansas any more. Great music - super atmospheric!
haha this was weird and delicious...enjoyed it.
nice! i like the guitar blazing speed on it!
Sweet Keys.
HA HA! NICE! I think I will have my alarm clock play this to get up in the morning.
Sounds like a decent track for a videogame. Most likely a racing game due to the fast paced techno-rock vibe.
Yes - I love it.
Masterful - I want to learn to play piano at some point, and this music does inspire the desire.
I enjoyed this a lot. Would that I would be able to improvise like this one day.
Yes, this is very beautiful. Well done!
beautiful!
Oh wow. You play beautifully!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wild stuff! Great job guys!
Exciting collab! Very intriguing piece!
haha

This is trippy good. Like Santana in a blender.

This is destined to be my attorney's favorite song: his name is Bob Lawblahb; yes the founder of Bob Lawblahb Law. Great collab, guys!

Thanks again! And I usually don't like banjo - but love it here!
Sad Reg, but so true for too many.
This a beautiful and indeed your arrangement is spotless
Thanks for the listen and comment - now to listen to your piece.

Hi John, thanks for listening. The tuning is 11 EDT and uses 0, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10 as scale degrees.
wow! a beautiful memory - very cool. I've only seen just a few meteors so I'm glad to hear your story!
excellent! great vocals and guitar!
Thanks for making this happen!
its so sad when people are two faced - great tune
I posted your video here http://www.reddit.com/r/videos/new/ I hope people watch it.
Wow! what visuals!!

wow! over 3 hours of music together! I had not realized...
thanks for the inclusion!
very intense programmatic ambiance.
And I should say - some people indeed need their reality checked...
This is great - I love the harmonies especially. The whistle is an excellent counter point to the wonderful guitars.
I'm sharing this to my facebook page. Excellent message Mr Landry!
