This is an extremely interesting piece, since microtonal music is still a bit of a mystery to me, though i play some turkish and persian pieces. Well-played too!
I went to the Brookfield Zoo with my cousin and nephew a while back. It was a place her and I had gone as children. As it turned out all of the animals in captivity made me sad. Very sad really. And this gorilla became a focus of those feelings…

This spooky track utilizes the "Paulstretch" program to stretch recordings of gongs, chimes and bells to 8.04 times their native length: no other effects were made to these acoustic recordings other than to stretch them. The gongs utilized are…

exquisite! The choral entrance is set up extremely well.
cool cover!!
this is what I'm talk about!! Rocking! So did your hands hurt hitting the metal?
nice work Richard!
Norm I really like it! Is there anyway I could you into sending me the TUBS for the main beat? I want to plagiarize it for a marimba part.
awesome! You are unleashing your inner Sonny Landreth!
whoa! The gong sounds HUGE!
excellent work - sad, sad blues.
wow you nail Elvis so well.
and I 2nd what Norm said - you have an amazing tonal control over your voice.
lovely
this just excellent - the production has great clarity too!
this is an excellent collaboration!
Thanks for doing this!!
hehe! excellent!
sounds like early Who - excellent!!
or the seventh son of a seventh son! My bass is looking at me :-)
I'm hating it too. Its just an infection I think. Nothing personal ;-)
great track - and yet another side to your voice.
this is a great idea well executed!
