Remastered from 4 track circa 1987. The backing track was shoved into one track (drum machine, casio CZ-101 synthesizer bass, rythmn guitar) - the vocals are buried because I wrote a song that was way way too high for my range. The backwards-ness…
Ever since I started listening to microtonal music I feel like my ears are getting 'cleansed' from the typical equal tempered tuning. ( I'll always enjoy the works of genius in equal temp......but for now it would be hard to go back). Your site is fantastic because you have provide a good example of no stylistic limitations.
I teach at a private music studio and will recommend your site.

Well, I had this crazy idea that *maybe* Buddy Guy was using some microtonal inflections in his cover of Tramp (which are what the "blue notes" are and thought it would be cool to cover it with my fretless guitar. As it turned out it was my ear…
Absolutely love Buddy Guy. And the cover, though tbh this reminded me more of Fripp's over-driven guitar in 21st Century Schizoid Man, with more of a mid and 'tail' to it (I don't think I know what I'm talking about here). Great vocals!
single workings in my living room with the guitar. and putting it thru the supernova II for effects and amping.. suggested by a friend for me to see how my guitar playing is going.. :)
"The Inner Light"
Without going out of my door
I can know all things on Earth
Without looking out of my window
I could know the ways of Heaven
The farther one travels
The less one knows
The less one really knows
Without going out…
plays fine here Bee - but I've delayed a flash update... Flash has been getting worse with each revision - software should get better with each revision :-(
Got a lot of bad news this week and this came out.......
i want to see the sunshine

i want to see the clouds break
i want to see this day start again
oh i’m gonna get down on my knees get down on my knees…

My tribute to Anne Boleyn, the first queen to be publicly executed in England. I used some of the poetry she wrote during her imprisonment in the chorus. An innocent, incomparable woman.
This was written after an incident in the early morning hours as I was waking. It wasn't really a dream but the whole thing came to me as the lyrics tell.

It was the last day of RPM and he asked me to write a lullaby for a track called Cornucopia. Very much enjoyed how easily this one flowed. That's my mum, Bee Mathis, adding class to the…

A stunning piece Chris. Builds with tension making anticipation. Love the glass marimba sounds. What a gloriously peaceful photo. Ah bliss!
based on the premise if we build it they will sec-come...The sounds speak of construction and excess in go-rash glass and steel
Golly, what a concrete jungle that photo shows! This is a very strong piece with sudden splashes of volume which are very effective.
Very good, I think because 17EDO has good fourths and fifths, and the usual CV touch makes it even better, John.
8:13 IN.....i am loving this.......
hey, i think "white boy with no rhythm" is a good enough excuse. ;)
I missed this one Chris. A really great rock song. The backing is punchy, solid and I think, right up there.
Quite the adventure - great tension!
Really cool sounds, nice one
Nice was that!
Chris does Blues! Good song and strong guitar playing.
A delicate composition, very pretty. The photo reminds me of what I didn't like about Houston.
This is expressive and solid. Bound together in the light of lights.
Love the flute it gives it a certain magic.....
Such a clear flute. An inspiring piece, strong and meaningful. A perfect partner for the reading.
Excellent!

Menacing!
Sounds so melancholy. Got me picturing the Sahara for some strange reason. Strong and impressive ending.
