As you know, I love this piece. It is so rich and complicated, that it is mind-blowing. And while I am not certain this is the final mix for this (it really should all be acoustic, shouldn't it?)it is so delicate and intricate from a metric point of view that we (by "we" I mean all of us who hope to be involved in the final version of this)will need to spend some time together in advance to decide exactly how to tap our feet to this.
Love it.

it was the panda one that was just backwash from the 2010 days just before I joined alondtone.. I had to check to see If the songs were uploaded from back then.. This is so nice this piece

this is a 15 minute excerpt of my first successful aeolian harp experiment. As you can see from the picture I strung 50 pound fishing line from my deck to my fence. I used piezo pickups clamped to the end of the lines to capture the sound. The…
that was shorter then I am used to.. seemed like ten minutes but I guess if it says 15:22 then that is how long its, I really like this kind of music..
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.

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!

Lovely sounds!
Neat project and awesome sounds!
Almost the song should have a Bach invention playing counterpoint in key,..at least I can here something like that,..over all most astounding ,..
Nice! I dig the video too... it has a nice relaxed somber feel to it

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!
