Really pretty Chris. I agree with Richard, discord is something I find uncomfortable, but hey here it works. I was sorry when it ended, so here goes again. Cheers Bee
wow Chris,, sometimes i feel like we live in such different lands.....this is really nice,, it grates on me,, but then again i suppose it's supposed too? your use of dissadense (sorry i cant spell)is intreaging (again i can't spell),, tell me are there minor and majors in this type of tuning? there's something in this that says major key, it has a brightness that i associate with major,,, regardless of the dissadance.. anyhow nice r
No offense..... In Fact, John would've said, I don't give a s**t, you are playing one of songs ..... I think!?!?! 'till the money men get's involved ....

"Turn! Turn! Turn! (to Everything There Is a Season)", often abbreviated to "Turn! Turn! Turn!", is a song written by Pete Seeger in the late 1950s. The lyrics were adapted almost entirely from verses in the Book of Ecclesiastes, set to music…
"Tether"
Whatever it was, is wasn't manumission
To spill the blood, to pull the weed
You can bury the past, but it's a mausoleum
With the ghost of a fist that won't let us be
Can we bring it together,
Can we call from the mountain to the valley…

Second movment,, perhaps a little rough,, comments welcome,,, 6/11 Third mov is now done,,, and very very different from the first two,, scares me a little
did a remix of latest B-52s (ex B-52's) song "Funplex". i admit i didn't really take the time to polish this, so it might have some flaws here and there, but it was fun to do and after all, is this not what matters most? :)
and you can…
You're just kidding yourself if you thought I could resist the chance to add a bit of percussion to this wonderful song by Osckilo & Launched. I used Paiste Sound Discs to create a 3vs.4 polyrhythm against the delightful underlying 4/4 Spanish…

3rd in concept form (much to think about)

Well, I make no claim to the authenticity of Ethno 2 samples - though assuming they are top notch is probably a safe bet. I just released a revised version to my private mailing list and here are the instruments:
This piece is a quasi-middle eastern section using the celtic 12, E, and D guitars and the lead Electric Bouzouki plus acoustic bass in Zurna tuning and the percussion includes Timbales, gong, Bendir, Daires, Darbuka, Tamborin, and Sistres.
Backyard Ghost sent me something to work on...i added my own touch and arranged it...i sent it to him and he added another of his touches and rearranged it and You've Had My Tears is the end result...we both love this collaboration...expect more…
Abakua refers to a secret, Afro-Cuban, male society of percussionists - as I understand it, one had to be initiated into this society before they would be taught how to play percussion in their style. One of their hallmarks is to impose what I…

This is one of my first alonetone collaborations written by Louis Smit.
Everyone should go listen to some of his tunes. Louis is a very original
and talented folk style acoustic guitarist- singer - songwriter.
You can hear him here.

This is a special request by Sister.
It's kinda sloppy. Frankly, because I suck at it :)
I'm not much of a cover musician but I gave it hell.
It's mostly analog. MIDI drums, DB33 organ patch,
strat leads, and Ibanez chords, Dean bass…
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
fair play then mate, its a decent tune all the same :)
True, but doing that is hard without practicing in the new key a bit. This was more for the fun of it.
its a good song, i like the lyrics. It sounds like singing in a lower octave would have done you a few favours tho

Rock on!
Love this song!
I've heard many covers of this one but never on piano, this is lovely. Well done.
I've always loved this song - not sure why, though... I don't actually really "like" it! lol This is a fine version. Nice one.
One of my faves.
Actually, like beautiful, chiming bells!
Hi Chris, Yes, I think it does too. I really like the harmonies or ics. You see, you are far too clever for me. Cheers Bee
Really like the overlapping vox harmonies here. Bass just right too
Nice and relaxing Chris. A pleasure of a listen. Cheers Bee
Wow! That was a trip and a half! marvelously put together. The swishing sound in the background there reminds me of the foetal heart. Cheers Bee
Enjoyed that.
Like it. Don't know the original, but I like this.
Good one Chris.....
Nice ......now here comes the rain

this is beautiful and moving. I wish I could play piano this well. Awesome work Richard!
Rockin!!
nice piece - good progression - does sound western
this is so expressive, especially once the piano comes in.
if you wish for me to take down my re-mix of your piece let me know.
excellent!! I really like this collab! The voice perhaps could be a touch louder other than that this is excellent!
wow. You have captured what St. Casimir cemetery sounds like at 4 am on a spooky fall night...
Man alive!! this is astounding!! what a trip!
As for the song icon for Don't Look Down - a friend made it for me and I am not sure what he used. Subway is a good bet.

this is wonderfully sad and mysterious!
beyond just excellent! This is a trip through space to another place, time, and existence! I can't say enough!
Excellent!!
Excellent sounds and I keep wanting to hear more of her :-) I especially like the percussion.
Beautiful!! In composition and execution.
Nice tune - so this is a cover?
Nice tune - like the production
nice an heavy!
entrancing! Not at all what I expected with "march" in the name - much more subtle and smooth - I enjoyed this one very much!
Awesome!!! This is so perfect!
