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....

I am shriveling up inside
Having not one thing to express
And my feelings are dulled…

this is a mono/nonstereo track because my fourtrack recorded decided that mono is better then stereo but at least the dang thing works ,, I guess,, From now on it is direct records from the outside machine to the computer not thru the fourtrack…
if you use something as a midi controller there are a few VSTi software microtonal synthesizers that are free which makes it easier. Savihost - and other VSTi hosting software let you play microtonally - all you have to keep track of is how the extra (or less) notes translate to the normal keyboard.
This piece is crazy! How'd you do the drums?
As for mono/stereo - what you need is either a Y-cable with 1/4 male to 1/8 stereo (or collection of pieces that do that)
If you are still using Sonar I guess its lets of an issue - just record multiple tracks.
very similar to the 'more of this a' but part 2
btw the video for todays' computer music work is getting uploaded now. all 25 min 25 sec and 25 frames there of.
1/1/11; took bits from two of Mark's tracks from Pleasure Listening (2002) and improvised in Max with them, then mixed in DP. a mellow vibe for the new year.
This song is not for everyone but I like it because its a live recording with a single instrument using infinity delay FX. (I turned on the loop delay at :09 after the guitar was flat on the floor.)
All the sounds are made with an acoustic bass…
I didn't like the 1st version so i changed it so here it is. imagine Sitting in the forest listening to the breeze being free and wanting to follow it..........................

"High Life" is a musical genre that originated in Ghana in the 1900s and spread to Sierra Leone, Nigeria and other West African countries by 1920. My friends from that part of the world consider this be the "go-to" rhythm for just about anything…
Kinda rough. I'm uploading this mainly to share a guitar technique I've been working on. I'm wearing a slide on my picking hand and using it to alter pitches in single line phrases. There's a lot more can be done with this technique that I've…
I 2nd the request for a video. I'm assuming you are pushing the slide off the bridge toward the neck - correct? I've net ever heard of someone putting the slide on the picking hand before - but it sure sounds great!! Beautiful piece of work here Kirk!!

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!

this is an oddly compelling piece - its like an electroband kidnapped Weird Al to jam on accordion. The production clarity is excellent too.
I love the sound of this - beautiful!! What do the pedals do in a pedal steel guitar?

I watched the whole video - I take it what was happening is that you layered video of you layering the sound? Very disorientating and interesting.
this is intense!! more microkorg?
this is a fantastic trip!
your soul is motown~!
alright!! new keys!!! This sounds excellent!
haha! this is great!!
right up my alley - awesome work my friend!
sounds..... Hungarian!
enjoyed!!
one of my favorite songs covered with power and great taste!!

this is beautiful - I love the slide. Gosh I sound so amateurish compared to you guys (and Kirk, and Bethan, and Tess, and ..... I'm just wow'd .

wow - this harkens back to the Beatniks with a motown funk vibe - that is so cool! - I love your voice Reg!!
would either of you have a rpoblem if I added to this?
excellent! The interplay between guitar and percussion is very good.
