The video below is the "official" video for the July concert from which this performance is taken. The larger August concert video…
Legend has it that one day this post will no longer be on the front page of this site. But then it is only legend. It all depends on what you chose believe.
Cool piece Chris, something magical about playing a new instrument. Mandolin is something I would like to try again, the different tuning always trows me off.
I enjoyed this thoroughly, and as for the "guest" and his moronic comment... He has no understanding of that which he is listening. It’s sad when the idiots of the world run around giving their uninformed, unfounded, and just plain stupid opinions - all while maintaining anonymity. Go to hell, guest. Please, go to hell.
The coffee table gang helped me round out this one that I shared earlier. I love this version with Mark Lofgren and Greg Connor's wonderful talents on the backup vocals and guitars. I like how my ukulele blended in on this version.
Sometimes…
I got nothing.
Insert some random post-apocalyptic sci-fi narrative here, involving Speak And Spells achieving sentience and taking over the world, only to be thwarted by the Amish.
Alternatively, "Based On A True Story" something something.
Bringing back a song from 2011 with a new twist. The song now has drums, bass, and an orchestral backend. This is hopefully part of a larger collection of me reworking older songs with orchestration.
Many thanks to Brian of A Beautiful Scene…
Waiting for the AotM - well, no, not here, and Mysterium appears to have taken TiS down a rabbit hole. Thanks for the listen and comment. This is a nice smooth track!
Originally recorded in 1996, this is an excerpt of a Time Lag Accumulation of sounds from a Roland JX-3P, with some backward voices (the tape was "liberated" from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation after its useful days were over and re-used…
I support the CBC liberation front! Definitely a unique soundscape here! I wonder what you and Bill Newbold could come up with in a collaboration. It might be fun!

Chris this is lovely. Commented on SI Fripp lines on top of an almagmation of contrasts or some such.
nice-you have given me some great inspiration
Great piano. wish I could play an instrument like this.
nice guitar work clones. Was that a slide on a reg guitar, or fretless? Echo on vox near end is fitting for this too- cheers!
Love the riff Chris

Whoever this "guest" is, he's a jerk.

I bet this isn't in 12 equal :-) !!! Nice sound and creative idea!
Texas Instruments wants world domination....
nicely done!
Whoa!
Very unusual piece, and especially for your typical very thick wall of sound collages. Very good, I enjoyed the piece!
Oh, this is so beautiful! The slide is achingly sweet.
This is superb!
This an impressive combination!
I would implore you to not quit. Ultimately don't we all make music for ourselves? Strangely beautiful piece!
