A homage to Steve Hackett (who wrote this piece)

This is played using John O'Sullivan's Blue JI tuning. Pianoteq and Kontakt didn't play nice together so I had add 4.81 cents to all of the flute notes.
Fantasy for Piano in 25 Note per Octave Tuning is a short piece I composed in Sibelius 7 using Pianoteq 4 in 25 note per octave (edo) tuning. This composition was created per a request in the Xenharmonic Alliance as a response to my piece in…
This is a serial improvisational piece (excepting some drum loops) in John O’Sullivan’s Blue JI tuning (which I rather like) – all of the instruments, African log drum, Nigerian log drum, Krin slit drum, Teponaxtli, Toere, Kaekeeke, Kalaau…

Such an incredible mix of sounds. It felt like a junkyard in space. Then when the music came in I thought it fitted really well, music all in bits like the gramaphones. Ooo, the swaying from one ear to the other at the end is effective too.
The Metaphysical Evaporation of Wells Street is an ambient piece devised by mashing Summer Sky by Paul H. Muller, Sweeping the Clouds by Lydia Busler-Blais, I Half Remember Why I Got the Blues by Steve Layton, Blue Mountain by Diego Monroy…

Hi - I enjoyed this composition very much. I would like to mention though that the volume was very low. So much so I have to normalize it to listen reasonably. Do you lack software to do this type of manipulation? (or was this on purpose?) In any event this piece impressed me enough to go through your series of sonatas!
CROSS-OVER POLYRHYTHMS
This is actually a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with **different meters** (i.e., a different numbers of beats/measure) are played at the **same tempo**: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms…
Many nebulae form from the gravitational collapse of gas in the interstellar medium. As the material collapses under its own weight, massive stars may form in the center, and their ultraviolet radiation ionises the surrounding gas, making it visible…
Did the guitar tracks first, followed by bass, then drums and vocals last. I wrote this song in a bookstore, after I came home and recorded it, I realized I made the song too short for all the lyrics.

I suck at most electronica genres (like trance - I don't like the 4 on the floor aspect) and I don't think I've given country a serious try yet as well.
Sung By John B - he also does most of the instrumentation. My contribution is simply that I wrote the lyrics and composed the music, and if you listen closely I play the guitar parts. A cross Atlantic collaboration.
two recorders and a flute get together in the back of a countryside English church late in the afternoon.....
NOTE --- you may need to turn up the volume a bit for this...

Well, since I have not used MOTU SI I can't compare but you can since you can hear my Kontakt 4 sample set. Sonar 8.5 was / is a radical upgrade if you write more than classical music. But if one were strictly classical composition minded a better (rational!) program than Sonar to score with would make more sense to invest in than sonar 8.5 . I look forward to hearing what you are working on!
I own the piano score but I found an accurate score as a midi file on the net and started from there. (That saved a 2 or 3 hours at my pace.)
Then I loaded the file into Sonar 8.5 and orchestrated it by assigning instruments to the VSTi called Kontakt 4 and its Vienna Symphony samples. Adjusting velocities / color / and a few notes took 3-4 hours. The most difficult part was creating the final mix which I'm still not 100% happy with.
Hi Richard, there is a contest to make microtonal demo tunes with MOTU. Selection of contestants is over and now we all must make at least 3 microtonal demonstration pieces. The Dance of the Unicorn is in a werckmeister equal beating variant.
this prelude is very nice. the descending register pattern is a nice variation. I see you sneak in the left hand :-)
Wanna go for a ride? Hop on in! (Many thanks to JQScutt for his excellent guitar work!)

Have you heard this story of the Hot Rod Race…
Took sandbag's [Andromeda 1](http://alonetone.com/sandbags/tracks/andromeda-1) and applied some BigSeq2 and LiveCut.
Added a little FM8 underneath.
And this happy little accident came out.

every body polka.
One of your oriental flavoured pieces Chris. Well played, it must be difficult. I like the way it boings at the end!
Nice playing Chris..........
Just wait until Pepé Le Pew gets a load of her!!
Purrrrfectly performed!
Great feel! Great playing! (Can't read much info about this track as the link seems to be broken.)
I love this!
Lovely! Well played Chris!
parts of this remind me of something from Michael Hedges' taproot album.... nice track!
Ooo, well played!
Nice warm groove.
Now that's cool
well Chris, i find this rather interesting,
This has inspired me to get my guitar out :)

Such an emotive piece. Beautifully performed. The ending is very different from the main part, almost like a new beginning.
An excitingly mysterious ride, perfectly formed.
Mighty cover!!!
Excellent cover great vocals Reg.
great track!

I enjoyed playing on this thanks Norm! - no guitars harmed in the improvisation
nice progression
welcome! And excellent track!
Aengus is all Ethno 2.
I love your voice reef. Excellent tune and production - your acoustics sound especially nice.
This is brilliant! Would you consider doing a collaboration sometime?

excellent collab!!
nice work - very rich - listened to it several times.

lovely, touching. A nice song and excellent vocals / lyrics.
Great vocal harmonies!
