Well, I play this in Fokker 7-limit Just Intonation on the piano and I didn't attempt to try to sing as high as Robert. So that makes the vocals hard to nail right there. And I played it over many times the past 3 days and my voice got worn out…
i wouldn't say murdered maybe a little beaten up though ....i love that piano work this is the first time I've ever heard it on the piano and it sounds great.....
Neither of us realized this is a Van De Graaf Generator song - I received the lyrics through an old friend of mine who passed away a few years ago. His book of poetry by Peter Hammill was one of his favorite possessions and he hand wrote out the…

Certainly is stirring stuff, unnerving and thought provoking. I really love your music Chris it's like it's stalking, ready to pounce - like a cat. Cheers Bee

You have interpreted the poem perfectly Chris. The poignant strings, military drum rolls and booming explosions set the scene most sympathetically. It's rather haunting! Lovely job indeed.
@Kavin, ha ha, it's the accent! Bethan

Chris and Bethan - Spellbinding collaboration... Dramatic, exciting, and beautifully performed. Love the reverse vocals at the end - sounds French! Super cool.

Crumbs Chris, that's incredible. Sounds really good, the music is superb, very nightmarish but dreamy too. Yeah, most impressed.
@Jane, Trev and Kavin, thank you, we had a great time.
I've been going to a lot of performance poetry nights recently, and this is amazing, Bethan. You'd go down a storm at my local Art House! Great collab :)
Reg was sat below the cliff having a sneaky smoke and he couldn't believe what he was witnessing ......I recorded the acoustic with the mic then added bass then a bit of piano and string then the tele then I decided what the subject would be and…
A Richard Serra memorial performance by the tribe inside the Serra sculpture Vortex at the Fort Worth Modern Art Museum. A passerby provided some vocals.
Inspiration was seeing Kavin Allenson's pictures from his jam in the Fort Worth sculpture Vortex. I wasn't going to do in Pure Data but I opened PD to setup a base structure of oscillators to use to tune one of my modules. I got a stuck note…
got to listen to this today - it is excellent - I like how you layered and peeled back the layers to close. I a big fan of happy accidents and I'm glad you found this one!
I like the development in this. Nice work - you always pull out the unexpected from the synths you work with regardless of the format. I would not have guessed this to be Animoog!

pain in my heart
it's probably nothing
song in my head
it's time to say something
living this life
it's got to be all
the time
chasing the dream

This is interesting - there is this hint of Debussy in the chords and melodies (especially in the first half) but they come across in an Ivesian fashion - as though through shattered glass. Thank you for another fantastic piece !
Billy wanted a project for the 2023 Christmas holidays and asked some of his extremely talented musician friends to play on this track.

Punny title to hint at the sound origin; the sounds left on a reel of tape (or in this case, two different ones) after it has undergone a bulk-erase procedure - placing it on a device that creates a strong electromagnetic field that scrambles…
Four different tracks of Roland SE-02 controlled via MIDI by a Casio DH-100. Choosing different voices on the Casio causes settings to change on the Roland, which were then tweaked a little. Submitted to Sound-In "Roleplay Improv" for 1-8/2/2024.
Three different versions of a similar line created using the onboard sequencer on a Roland SE-02. the different voices were created by changing settings on a Casio DH-100 digital horn attached via MIDI, and playing the horn. Submitted to Sound…

well done..
Good stuff
Compelling interpretation of a powerful poem. Great job, guys! Tess
Great track, Vaisvil. Strong sounds, well constructed... evocative without having to do too much.

Brilliant, yawl. I swear I could be happy listening to B read a phone book.
like it good mood
Just realized I really like this song, but rarely hear it. You may have topped the original.
Definitely sounds like an Indian influence here. Nice work Chris. I like the tone too, sounds like a really good guitar. Bethan
Really nice! I gotta get me an old electric and pull the frets off sometime!
Not what I was expecting at all but they are there, on the end.I think you are getting good at this Chris. Yes, very clever. Cheers Bee

This is great!
Nice one!
One of your best compositions. It’s a strangely compelling story with the protagonist worthy of a Darwin Award.
Quite like this! - has such a nice sense of space and clear timbre definition.
I really liked this - the female voice really hit home - nice jam! Is she the passerby?
got to listen to this today - it is excellent - I like how you layered and peeled back the layers to close. I a big fan of happy accidents and I'm glad you found this one!
lofi and exotic - what not to like?
Another great piece!

nice work Kavin!
This is a really nice composition!
sweet ambiance

Definitely true to the original - very excellent work!
You always come up with inventive ways to generate sound and I admire that - this is quite cool as it sounds underwater to me.
another brilliant DH-100 application!
such a foreboding piece - were you thinking about it being an election year here in the states?
Nice pocket between ambient, EDM and experimental electronic!
I enjoyed your performance very much!
This is the most unique use of a DH-100 that I know of!
