Hi - thought I'd throw up an older piece today while I have time (doing work at the new house later). This is an improvisation with my Fender Mustang / Roland GR-20 combination retuned on the fly to 9 notes per octave "Sorog" tuning. I think…

Yes, as a matter of practicality one performs with volume greater than the actual Fender (headphones to the GR-20, amplification of the Roland GR-20 ) - although I have mixed the "normal" and "new" tunings together and in some cases that sounds nice and fairly unique.

So when you are playing this song on the Fender Mustang, you are hearing it in Sorog tuning, right? But the note that you are playing on the guitar is changed to another pitch by the Roland, so you must have the headset plugged into the Roland output, right?

Vaisvil's response to my question was enlightening: wild stuff!
"well, no actually, it is the Roland GR-20 that gets re-tuned. Performing in many tunings with acoustic instruments is problematic and while I've seen a few attempts none of them I could afford. One could de-fret and re-fret a guitar but not only is it time consuming you then have either many guitars or a commitment to one tuning for a good space of time.
So.. long story short - musical electronics are making microtonal music practical. Of course this is purely from a western perspective - other cultures have been performing microtonal music for millennial. Or, as a Turkish composer told me - the west is the real microtonal music because its the compromise compared to other cultures."

really very beautiful, and rich sounding, a lot of cool musical thoughts making a tapestry of sound,,, very nice,, the percussion underlying this is very interesting... i will be looking to see you guys on a movie track in the future well played
This is a microtonal Jazz-ish piece produced with some newly developed techniques.
Norm Harris provides the excellent percussion. I probably could have made it easier on myself by not being so chromatic… but there it is.
The piano, bass…
Ha! Epic Vaisvil ax work! I was too ignorant to realize that my headset metronome was getting picked up by the mic at the very end, at which time I was following Vaisvil's excellent suggestion of attempting some microphone/gong manipulation in which the mic was hand held, rotating it about an inch above the face of a simmering 32" gong. Wild stuff!
This is was originally for piano and is a fair assessment of my piano playing abilities in 1977 and was written in that year.

something in semi-performance mode on a real piano recorded at the meb(medical education building) in October the fifteenth or ides of October 2012 at eleven fifty three before lunch, I was actually reacting to the people walking by and sorta…
Here's request Carry on my Wayward son by Kansas we had.... again Gene has outdone himself with some superb musicianship ......and i've again had the easy job with the vocals...thanks Gene
For the grandchildren, when I get some!
Moonbee started life as a doodle, then he was turned into a little story, then a song!
This is Part 1 of the series - I have no idea how many there will be in total!
Enjoy! xox
P.S. This is…
Well that didn't last long Reg felt something wrong so he's moving on to pastures new..........it got Reg feeling Jazzy......
Time to go (Lyrics)
Theres something in your smile that tells me its time for me to go
when i ask if everything is ok…
Maybe the last for 2012 Reg got the Acoustic out on this one and a touch of guitar fx for the vocal hope you enjoy.......Happy New Year....Although Reg is a miserable sod........
I've enjoyed your work too - though mostly via Sound-In - Alonetone... I've found less and less time for AT as I've been getting more active in the microtonal community. However, Sound-In... I wait for every week :-)
Dawn awaits – SKEEN 121013
The beating, of her heart up next to mine,
So sweetly keeping time
Stirring, from her slumber through the night
Slowly opens….her eyes shine brighter than the mooonlight through the trees
Awake, my darling from…
this is just too good I have to give the machine's all the credits I did little more then guide them thru this landscapes in timeless experiential effects. I will have the big video that was cut up and layered here before effects soon to see…
yes this is part three of the disk i did...
this piece includes a hypnosis session doing a past life regression of me, bill newbold,.
just edits in the sounds.
This is a collab song with MTC. I almost hated adding anything to it cuz the first track he sent me was kickass vintage Jim. It totally changed flavors in the collab process, but still one of my favs
Didnt mean to have a political slant but had just got denied my large order soft drink in Manhattan.
All thats left are the small sodas with the "NY loves big cans" tee shirts
always liked this song. as a guitarist in the early 80's i played this song a lot in a band i was in. i went for a live sound on this so it would have a sort of an amplifier played live. i am the only one to blame for this song, as i did it all…
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
Very cool.
Delicate and serene. Beauty indeed.
A masculine piece with an oriental flavour. Most interesting and different.

You actually tune the Fender Mustang to the Sorog tuning, right?

Whew! That's a dandy production right there. Some great changes and that piano is sterling.
I still love it.
Wow, this is...wow.
My goodness, this is tremendous. The sheer scale and talent has me floored. Fantastic!
A great listen - Perfect buildup and rush.

Quite a trip. Very Nice!
Awesome. Illegal Alien Autopsy
Cool composition - like the last 15 seconds especially.
Oooo, like it! w;-)

it's very good!
Comments made by vaisvil
excellent!
I've never heard you play something like this before - very nice!
Superb all the way around!~ Speed Demon sounds like he's been touring with Kansas! Excellent vocals!
Lovely!
Very cool sounding! re: Closer to Mumbai => its the spices :-)
nicely done!!
you play guitar like Peter Townsend! I love the vocal effects.
This is really nice. I love the vocal harmonies and the slide too.
This is a beautiful medley!
I've enjoyed your work too - though mostly via Sound-In - Alonetone... I've found less and less time for AT as I've been getting more active in the microtonal community. However, Sound-In... I wait for every week :-)
This is fantastic!
Enjoyed that - good song writing and production to my ears
thanks Reg!!
this is... like being inside of a factory at night when the machines wake up and devise artifacts of their alien will.
I found this really interesting.
This series has a good flavor so far. More subtle than usual. The first piece reminded me of the magnetic field of Jupiter as picked up by Voyager.
cool!
love what you guys did here.
wow the a capella is just stunning!
Love the vocal harmonies!! Great tune to pick and nice excution
