Chris, this piece is astoundingly good, it has been perfectly entitled! Plays havoc with the imagination. Wonderful stuff! Waiting to hear how you end it ... ah, the eerie fade out!

Disbeliever, an original that I don't think saw public performance.
my brain on my ex - originates from 1996 - details below.
Dulled
What can I tell you?
I hold nothing inside
My brain aches from lack of....
Direction
I am shriveling up inside
Having not one thing to express
And my feelings are dulled…

The video below is the "official" video for the July concert from which this performance is taken. The larger August concert video…
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.
Alternatively, "Based On A True Story" something something.
Bringing back a song from 2011 with a new twist. The song now has drums, bass, and an orchestral backend. This is hopefully part of a larger collection of me reworking older songs with orchestration.
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!

A sort of a sitar/bagpipe duet. I looked it up, what a strange instrument but this composition is perfect for it. You do astound me Chris! Bee

Most unusual, well played too. Bethan
Sounds lovely Chris. Beautifully composed picture too. Bee
Did John play this? Excellent work!
Perfect for a Sat' afternoon, after the grocery rush. "A national Acrobat" kicks ass!
great track and subject matter is something I can relate to. I am assuming your situation has improved.
I love this song. Amazing track.. strong vox in this. POWER
great tune, fine collab gents!
suspenceful i must say nice job
Nice track, Vaisvil. It feels like two competing ideas that drift back and forth between uneasy and dreamy.
Very nice. Sounds like the music track for a Chaplin or Keaton silent movie.
Beautiful .....
Well played.
Very tasty track. I like!

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!
