Oh Baby its just not the same,
I can hear it when you call my name,
When you call my name,
Oh baby its just not the same,
I can feel it when you don't come home,
When you don't come home,
Oh Baby its just not the same,
I did feel…
Ok, at time this becomes out of sync leading to polytempic moments, but don't be fooled. I just can't play with a metronome. However, it truly is loopy in several dimensions. Lyrics written by OpenAI Chatbot and edited by me.

Scored for amplified prepared piano and choir ensemble…
I guess you can call this in 13/8 meter or alternating 7/8 - 6/8 - but I counted it as 7-3-3. Also this was another proof of concept with Abelton Live. Three guitar tracks in F# phrygian more than less.

Akron police fired over 90 rounds, and over 60 of which struck and killed unarmed Jayland Walker. This story has been lost in the news cycle because of the horrific Highland Park 4th of July 2022 mass shooting and the assassination of Shinzo Abe…
I have been learning to put snare and percussion in the musescore song designs --- just little percussion hits here and there --- this is great -- and getting back to making more percussion scores -
An abundance running over of fine guitar loops and creativity, Flying the Reservoir Calmly rises to the top! A bit for Kavin gives me a feeling of Radiohead!
Fender mustang, effects, sound effects (including freesound.org dcaudio interior walla...) and archive.org The Big Clock trailer and some homegrown stuff. And drone video.

A few of you know I accidentally wiped out one of my SD cards that had all my works in progress on it. I'm just starting to piece it all together again - A slow process. This was supposed to be a reprise to "In My Head", but ended up being in…
I have issues at my house, sometimes they manifest themselves in my tracks. In this case, the bassoon and oboe represent the mouse. The guitar is the peanut-butter.
this is one inventive piece! what a mix - are you sure you didn't grow up south of I-10 in Louisiana? You have that Cajun blues thing down and who'd expect you could get oboe and bassoon to work so well with it! wow.
Hi - thought I'd throw up an older piece today while I have time (doing work at the new house later). This is an improvisation with my Fender Mustang / Roland GR-20 combination retuned on the fly to 9 notes per octave "Sorog" tuning. I think…
Yes, as a matter of practicality one performs with volume greater than the actual Fender (headphones to the GR-20, amplification of the Roland GR-20 ) - although I have mixed the "normal" and "new" tunings together and in some cases that sounds nice and fairly unique.
Really nothing more than some voice leading practice. Unfortunately, I had no keyboard or orchestral samples when I did this, so I used Lilypond and TiMidity++ and step programmed it in a text editor. I've since bought Cubase and EastWest/QuantumLeap…
As chance had it, I found myself in an acoustically great room, full of cajons! Well, they were unfinished cabinets actually, but they had lovely tones. Since this is the stuff dreams are made of, I had no choice but to seize the opportunity and…
well.... tell your wife you'll build her a new addition if she lets you keep this room as is :-)
nice - the sound is so surprisingly robust and resonate in tone.
Caveat emptor: I did absolutely none of the drumming in this piece.
WORLD PREMIER! FIRST RECORDING OF THIS PATTERN - EVER!
My friend Kokou "Alex" Yemey called me a few days ago with some urgency in his voice: "I must record this before…
It seems a lot of you record with open mics and can relate. I record 1 track at a time with usually 4 or 5 tracks. So, Im only asking for about 15 minutes of Silence...IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK??? Anyway, my house is so loud, I get a lot of bloopers…
Hi, The Suicide is programmed actually and uses Kontakt sounds. I have a large number of manuscripts which I created in college and shortly after (before 90's no computer program I had could let me score reasonably). In this case, The Suicide, was scored at an upright piano and I could play it at the time. Its really easy to play.
The last track that I'm going to upload for a while. I will be re-recording a few songs to release a LP under my own name. Hopefully it'll be good :)
This one is another exploration using loops and delays. I hope you like it!
A second version with the initial lead guitar standing alone...a little cluttered after a few listens and some constructive feedback!
Norm's Groove for St Monica inspired this one. Thanks Norm!
Lead Guitar, bass guitar and acoustic guitar…
still one of my personal faves. - although i'd wish to redo some parts, i'm stuck with this version, since i don't own one of the synths used there anymore..

If you have the fever and the only cure is more tambourine, here it is.
MORE TAMBOURINE SOLOS!! (But you should probably wait until you have the house to yourself...)
last eve there was a beautiful moon
dancing in a blue black sky
outside my piano room, it called to me
this tune is a one take playful moment, loosely based on the main theme from the 2nd mov of my piano sonata,,, i only toned down about…
Hey Richard - for Rumba - the guitar tunings are standard so if you want to play along on your piano it should work. If I remember correctly Brian laid down a basic I-IV-V in D major. I put 7th chords on top of that.

Now Desirea although you sing with such a beautiful voice you know I’m not being enticed back ….. I’m not… really …. I’m not
You are a metronome. Who needs them? Nice song. Happy to see your still here doing your thing.
Pretty awesome! The tabla like percussion hits in beginning are really defining with the voice and mix. Grows cool!
wow Gregor :)
minute 5 -- omg wow ... this is a great sound entering here.
serve them up - :)
Another from way back you two certainly brought me out of my shell
This one took me back
the Neutron is a great instrument --- I like all the behringer instruments --
all names that begin with the letter G
Reminds me of 1968-69 Pink Floyd.
Nice Chris - bit like a League of Crafty in the storm!
I have been learning to put snare and percussion in the musescore song designs --- just little percussion hits here and there --- this is great -- and getting back to making more percussion scores -
lovely melancholy spirit to this - feels very natural played!
is that you playing piano ?? with your fingers in that syncopated timing like that?? it is neat even if you made the computer play--
really nice-
just greatness --- all around with these songs --- wow
3:20+ might be cheap but good!

this is very good - like the solid vocal harmonies and leads.
this is one inventive piece! what a mix - are you sure you didn't grow up south of I-10 in Louisiana? You have that Cajun blues thing down and who'd expect you could get oboe and bassoon to work so well with it! wow.
This is a great tune - I love the percussion and the deep deep sounds.
Yes, as a matter of practicality one performs with volume greater than the actual Fender (headphones to the GR-20, amplification of the Roland GR-20 ) - although I have mixed the "normal" and "new" tunings together and in some cases that sounds nice and fairly unique.
nicely done - sounds a bit floydish. Introspective Roger Waters.
all of the compositions are wonderful - I feel emotion from your work.
this is a very nice progression against a pedal point and exposition. I agree the room acoustics are really great - it sounds great!!
very classical period sounding.
well.... tell your wife you'll build her a new addition if she lets you keep this room as is :-) nice - the sound is so surprisingly robust and resonate in tone.
wow - this is complicated!! and cool!

wonderful!! So this is in part classical guitar? If so great tone!
bizarrely the opening bass riff sounds like the theme to green acres - a usa 60's sitcom.
sounds like my ferrets playing!
excellent!
yes! love the sounds here
this is nice indeed!!
one of my personal favorites too :-)
Dude! You own this place!!
