this has the crackling static like sound ,,, I usually try to adjust my levels to keep things like that from happening usually when I saturate the sounds or it is just too loud and such... but here it is so cool,.. I remember when I used tape hiss as part of my song. mmm a lot of songs well most all the songs on tape that I could not filter the hiss off ... :)
For female voice and harp in Pythagorean tuning

His soul stretched tight across the skies
That fade behind a city block,
Or trampled by insistent feet
At four and five and six o’clock;
And short square fingers stuffing pipes,
And…
Excellent thanks for taking time and making this happen.. ☺️ this is a most abstract poem like Candy dishes made from a car Axel's while hanging from circular rainbows spilling out of a glass of milk 🥛...
Female vocal with cello section in Pythagorean tuning
Public Domain poem from T.S. Eliot

You tossed a blanket from the bed,
You lay upon your back, and waited;
You dozed, and watched the night revealing
The thousand sordid images…
This is a captured and then edited live performance using the Sonar Matrix view using various samples - some of which were paul stretched.
I'm liking this - if only they had the possibility to change the pitch live it would be like sticking…
interesting angular reverseness, almost visual and like poetry. love how it leads into a cluster complementing the flat-planed stretches, if that makes sense to you :) in and then out of confusion...lovely outro

I suck at most electronica genres (like trance - I don't like the 4 on the floor aspect) and I don't think I've given country a serious try yet as well.
Sung By John B - he also does most of the instrumentation. My contribution is simply that I wrote the lyrics and composed the music, and if you listen closely I play the guitar parts. A cross Atlantic collaboration.

Well, since I have not used MOTU SI I can't compare but you can since you can hear my Kontakt 4 sample set. Sonar 8.5 was / is a radical upgrade if you write more than classical music. But if one were strictly classical composition minded a better (rational!) program than Sonar to score with would make more sense to invest in than sonar 8.5 . I look forward to hearing what you are working on!
I own the piano score but I found an accurate score as a midi file on the net and started from there. (That saved a 2 or 3 hours at my pace.)
Then I loaded the file into Sonar 8.5 and orchestrated it by assigning instruments to the VSTi called Kontakt 4 and its Vienna Symphony samples. Adjusting velocities / color / and a few notes took 3-4 hours. The most difficult part was creating the final mix which I'm still not 100% happy with.
Hi Richard, there is a contest to make microtonal demo tunes with MOTU. Selection of contestants is over and now we all must make at least 3 microtonal demonstration pieces. The Dance of the Unicorn is in a werckmeister equal beating variant.
this prelude is very nice. the descending register pattern is a nice variation. I see you sneak in the left hand :-)

Have you heard this story of the Hot Rod Race…
Took sandbag's [Andromeda 1](http://alonetone.com/sandbags/tracks/andromeda-1) and applied some BigSeq2 and LiveCut.
Added a little FM8 underneath.
And this happy little accident came out.

Love like a salt river washing away
Love's like sunshine evaporate
Love like floating candles blowing away
Watch out for the way you'll compensate
When I've seen all you have to give
When I'm still hungry
I need more than this
Tell me how…
yelyah - “solo piano 20100411” semi live improv
Semi live in that I had an idea of where I wanted to go, but never locked the melody in (as is probably obvious).
Hi Richard - I don't like being bored :-) I also am experimenting with some success with microtonal music as well. Drop by www.notonlymusic.com and www.chrisvaisvil.com some time.
Now.... this is a lovely sensitive piece!

I was listening to Delia Derbyshire all morning and this just fit right in.. excellent work here.
Yeah, cyberspooky
Spooky
Wow 😳 love your use of the synthesizers in a guitar 🎸 style. Nice drum 🥁 placement 😺
I love this! (the Prophet is amazing isn't it?....I have one too). Great idea this song.
Ohh wow 😯 so 🆒 cool 😎
Totally different song from the shower song it's hard to believe it is just a tempo change.. thanks..

I agree with Jim.. but more than ghostly some kind of robotics ghost haunting our ears and minds.. and yet not long enough to get us too scared 😳
Abstract and ghostly.
