Hi again,,, i hope you realize that i used simple as a complement,,,many of the best compositions (Bach aside) are based on extremely simple motifs, and then explored (Beethoven comes to mind) that piece was simple,, and at the same time beautiful and interesting (not always true of simple stuff) the gift is to be able to be simple and yet still be sublime, or interesting, or dramatic, or any number of cool things at the same time,,, you have that gift,, often and over and over i hear such cool stuff coming out of your music,,, for me being able to be simple and yet wonderful at the same time is about the highest achievement a musician can be,, ,, anyway i enjoy you music very much Richard

Electrifying 4 way collab. Real cool. Great mix GMO.

Yeah! very nice.

This one hasn't played for me in days. I keep trying though. Insanity I guess.

this piece is just getting better and better, each time i listen - must have been quite an interesting talk you had with the big guy..

I've always found that talking to God involves much more listening then talking. And listening to this is a pleasure, as my ear matures to appreciate micro-tonal work. And, I suspect, you will miss the view from the undisclosed location.

nice Chris,,, drifting quietly through a simple theme can be a lot of fun yes?? i enjoyed this (and simple is a complement, from my stand point, it's always what i try to aspire to) well done R

Awesome.

very beautiful

funkadelic! awesome!!

Breathe in.... and hold! Very cool.

excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! great sound/balance/instrumentation .. this could easily be a movie track,,, should you be so inclined very smooth and professional (which comes as no surprise) well done

nice quartet collab, - nice mix GMO. funky feel too

sooooo kool funky as shiat! A littttle bit clustered at times but doope

Ahem. It's a "Quartet in Space" only because actually physically putting these 5 guys in the same room would simply not be safe, but you can be certain it would sound fantastic.

You + a self-modified fretless guitar + a universe of microtonal possibilities = we’re never going to get you off of that thing! Brilliant! Bold move! I can’t wait to hear some more of this.

Very cool stuff! Now I can't decide if I should have another go at the fretless or just give up and sell it!

all it"s "missing" is the brass section eh! :p so you managed to microtune it with couple hours, nice job! - oh and is there any genre you're not versed into?

The first? Great stuff, go for it. Sounds like the score to a street cop movie.

You're right, funky is the word! Really clever, makes me smile.

awesome!!! hell can't be so bad if its so funky ;-)

Hi Richard, Re: Hotel Cali => yes clarinet for main vocal, oboe for backing vocal - everything you hear is from Kontakt's standard sample set. Thank you for the listen and comment!

that genesis piece is beyond my skill to play - but it took a bit of work to get it to be nice with my software.

I am amazed at how you constantly pull new textures from your equipment. Very cool - parts sound like a futuristic police chase.

I see you've taken up body levitation as evidenced by your avatar picture. :-)

your new avatar is freaky!

very cool sound - I like this piece quite a bit!

one could make any brass instrument to play in any temperament by valve placement and tubing length as far as I know. On the other hand 24 note per octave (and finer divisions) are avalable on wodwind and brass with using alternate fingering. On a recent trip to Urbana for a performance Peter's composition called for french horn playing in harmonic series tuning - but I guess the actual use comes close to 72 equal. The video of that is here: (go to about 16:40 .) http://www.youtube.com/user/clones98#p/u/30/OjY4LwBV8sM

funky indeed!!

cool reg!

yes I do. Nice piece!

this sounds fantastic!

I know you've seen this somewhere before - but it bares repeating. This is a really nice piece - excellent improvisation!!!

this is so *strange*

I expected Beatles - boy was I surprised!! This is a wonderful bright, bubbly pop song - almost Beach Boys - but really good and modern!

nicely done - I enjoyed listening and especially the climax at 3' as pointed out.

very nice!

like I need to be encouraged!
