I first heard Microtonal music from clones on Tracks in space. Its been at least 4 years since then and I feel im still way behind the bell curve.?!! Nice one chris>!
some video of my trip to Winston-Salem to perform three nights of microtonal music with a cast of excellent musicians and composers. More on that later...
This started as my fretless guitar bowed and picked with various effects. I then applied Paul's Extreme Stretch at 8x and also with Just Intonation harmonic constraints similar to Keys at Lowes - then the 4 tracks were loaded into Sonar 8.5…

It's a piece about 4 years old that was my first attempt at using synth voices,, I am still looking for a good one,, if anyone knows.
The music itself is a tone poem, loosely dedicated to a children…

I expect that there will…
Its my first attempt at writing a piece for piano. I think this would probably best be played by two players..
if I ever write out the piece on paper, it might have to be so.
I would value any of your comments greatly, as I greatly want to improve…
It was a curious and wondrous thing.
One night I was in my studio adding some percussion to the "Quiet Rituals" track by Barry van Oudtshoorn, when my 4 young children (with whom I was long over-due to be tucking into bed and reading a bed…

so - if I have the fret board right - stacked 5ths ? Nice work here!
cool - I've not heard an oboe ensemble before!
Excellent - what pedal are you using?
this is excellent - I love what you do with the chord stabs towards the end especially!
reminds me of KD Lang for some reason - I hope that isn't bad.
I love your toys!
this is excellent
beautiful - just right!
another great track!
wonderful - and the lyrics are like my own life. ACL is great!
this is a great tune!! I love the banter and self references.
