Ilmenau Over All the Treetops is an adaptation of Ives’s setting of Goethe’s poem dated 1902. The accompaniment is a combination of bassoon, english theorbo and psaltery. This is a fortuitous tape recording from Reg's obscure neo-classical period…
Nice tease with the conversations...i feel like a secret agent in the van waiting for that illicit speech...while tripping on the laced coffee i bought at Costa's...the waves of sound are getting stronger.....it's getting closer...i know it is.... 13.50 and counting...over halfway and the anticipation
grows....where is she? ....that voice we love to hear...... 16.20 and the heart beat increases.......the breathing is labored the anticipation intense.... the waiting ....the waiting....it's near 18.11 ...a numbness...the wait carry's on..... now i know what you've done....you Bugger!!
The audio in the video video is a selected annotated collection of Electric Aeolian Harp recordings taken over a consecutive 36 hour period. During that time the environment changed (wind, rain, sleet, snow) and I changed the tuning of the harp…
The poem is by Jason Kirk Bartley
This is in 19 edo and I play drums using a Simmons SMDP1 drum pad. The quality of poem is a lot higher than my music which is kind of an odd psychedelic blues not usually associated with the subject.
psychedelic for sure,,, this evokes some interesting images,,, listening to this which is great,, i would also guess you are a big doors fan, they blended such themes musically

a 13 minute improvisation I played on a newly tuned Steinway grand piano at my Church. The only audience was my Zoom H2 – which is probably good since there are a few glaring “misses” in the performance. I love the joy of just playing but it does…

the second theme at about 1:40 is lovely, and i like the way it changes at about 3:10 or so, sort of climbing out into a different plain,, very pretty riffs in the 5 min and on, i like it when you break away from the cord structure to individual keys/notes,,,, at times through this i can hear the slight pauses where it seems like your thinking/planing what direction to take,, OUR DOING GREAT! it's a fun musical journey and im happy to be along... you have a lot of really nice small themes in this,, excellent! oh and by the way for many years i played on a churches concert steinway,, loved it, especially because most churches have such a lovely sound scape to make music in , not to mention the also wonderful light that typically filters in,, ah a small bit of heaven (guess that makes sense though) well anyway excellent Chris

It’s burning.
Nothing else matters.
Nothing.
It’s burning and I love it.
It’s so clear
what is illusion and what is real.
I love the clarity.
I could drink it.
I could eat it.
I could…
This is a piece using 2 keyboards, an M-Audio 88es (vocal choir) and Alesis Q49 (brass choir) in 17 notes per octave. The objective was to use some functional xenharmonic chord progressions. I would be interested in knowing if you perceive the…
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
Reg has got a kinda Bluesy political thing going on this one.....he's been reading the paper and watching the news..........it's a little too long but i think he makes a point.......do you?
Two ambient guitar tracks recorded independently and stick together. I broke my rule of not using distortion on a BL piece, for the first time, believe it or no.
I'm not on top of it as usual, guys. But I did manage to let Greg Brady out of my basement and set him free. This is his testimonial regarding the incident. I hope he can forgive me.
Once upon a rainy day, we were out in the farm fields waiting on the sun to break through the gloom. We arrived in this dark world naked and were washed clean waiting for the sun. Little darling, here it comes...
This is the first demo [Sister Savage](http://alonetone.com/sistersavage) and I have made for our RPM 2011 album.
Although I've uploaded a copy here we'd be really grateful if you would listen to the [version uploaded by Sister](http://alonetone…
Normal IL - tantalizing close to Urbana where musicians are turned to the darkside of microtonality. Come, let me show you the power of a 19 note per octave guitar! Seriously - if you are interested at all you may want to make the drive.
Along with her magnificent harmonizing vocal tracks, Inge sent me one track which was crashed by her 2-year old son Willem. He pretty much takes over the whole operation at about 3:00.
In the background you can hear the original rough vocals…
I Got the Idea for this tune when I left Geir at Stanstead Airport.
Recorded it Last night after a Gig....
For the Folk Fest...

Marvellously well controlled music and build up to your poem Chris, creates anticipation. Wow! That is awesome! Cheers Bee
this would be Post ambient minimal tension? your chord shapes are intense.. Liking this lots...
Fook YES!
excellent.. very well done.
Oh, it sounds lovely! Now I know what you bought that day! Cheers Bee

Well, that thawed us out nicely! I have been out of it all for February but nice to be back listening again.
Awesome sounds there Chris! Luv Bee
psychedelic for sure,,, this evokes some interesting images,,, listening to this which is great,, i would also guess you are a big doors fan, they blended such themes musically
interesting!
Free flowing musical expression and lots of ideas here, like a deconstructed Let It Be in places.
and Chris i ment YOUR Doing Great,, sometimes my fingers and the keyboard don't quite line up

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!

like the indie vibe on this one!
beautiful piece!
nice jazzy number!
I love Inge's voice! - so rich. BTW - what guitar do you play - it sounds quite nice. A very good tune you both put together here.
I love your voice in this. Reminiscent of Gordon Lightfoot.
this is quite good. could I write music for it?
