This is a classical finger picked blues / classical guitar solo hybrid with lexicon reverberation and freeze pedal. There is some sloppiness. The idea was to push myself in playing and what I was playing melodically and harmonically.
A Galaxy Teeming With Life is a composition made by manipulating a Hubble space telescope picture, manipulating a sample of Francesca from 8Dio and creating a new tuning that is 256 harmonics of every odd harmonic from 3 without reducing to an…
Remind me to play this at my next garden party. This should make up for the lack of garden and make everyone think I spent a lot more on the punch. Inventive, unsettling, swarmingly clever!

Very interesting. Alonetone ate my first comment apparently. Thanks for the link the other day as well. Will be doing some reading over there again soon

Another work in progress down the cellar.............a first cut...........
I KNOW HOW LOVE CAN FEEL(Lyrics)
I know how love can feel
I know that love can heal
i know i kneel before you
i know it can burn you, destroy you
i know how love can…
Thank you for the comments on Sympathy for a Friend. I didn't use a synthesizer. All of the sound is from one take on my 19 note per octave guitar + effects.
Sort of a Tuesday improv...
Built up around a synth texture that I built up with:
Operator->FilterStation->Volcano->Kombinat->Panstation->RP-Delay
(what's the fun in having plugins if you can't abuse them)
Heres a collab with Wildgeas Music a beautiful bit of music hope i did it justice with the vocal............
Tomorrow (Lyrics)
I know the curse of the darkness is coming
those dark nights that will feed upon my soul
with no forward glance of tomorrow…
So after hearing some of Stephen Krell's outstanding picking, I asked him if he'd like to play along with any of my songs... I can't be happier with the one he picked to add his banjo to (seeing as how the song is written about my favorite Pete…
Different recording here as the electric guitar, bass guitar were not plugged in, just recorded raw with a power mic and then EQ'ed to make it sound amped - pardon mistakes!
Nice song - I did finally get around to listening to it :-) So this is literally unplugged hard bodied normally electric instruments - I've never heard of this being done before - awesome idea!!
So after listening to some of Chris Vaisvil's music for mapped midi and such I caught the bug of inspiration and did similar but in my own way. should of included extra things but there was the on the fly idea going.

baby! This is great!! I suggest running the mp3 through Paul's Extreme Stretch too if youu haven't taken a listen. What this reminds me of is some of the odd ends and bits on Beatles albums I always wished was longer. In places it sounds backwards, other places an orchestra tuning up, other places a spaceship. Wow. man I'm floored - you really have a lot, I do mean a lot in two and a half minutes!! Check out Dan Stearns - http://homemademusic.com/daniel_stearns/info_237.php I think you'll like what he is doing.

A song of hope...
and i apologize for the "noise"...I'll try to figure it out.
here are the lyrics.
waiting in the dark
never hearing the words
waiting for the spark
to revive a dying heart
so you think it's your fault
a buried belief…
Reg has never really understood Love.......... not in last 20years since first hearing this song .........it's still all a Mystery to him................

Underwater blues - this is why the sea is blue.

What a great song! Lovely version!
Menacing!
Very nice!

Well I know you know I like a nice pretty tune but wow Chris, you certainly come up with very clever and unusual ideas.
very nice sound!
It's a good song isn't it? Nice and gently folksy.
Loving these sounds. Its like the sounds our brains would make if we could hear them in action. Awesome work!
Awesome track!
Where did that folky vocal come from?? Nice work, CV!
Sometimes there is a cover that we just can't resist! More than an attempt, you did a good job with this Chris.
Your experiments with pitch/tuning always fascinate.
Our zebra is now taking a walk down the street, and wondering why all the cats are staring at him. Very inventive!
Playful and light. Can see this accompanying a short stop motion film about a toy zebra slowly coming to life. Or something.
honkin' on down
Interesting stuff! I have enough trouble with 12 notes. What do you call all the extra ones!
Elexotica!
Minimalist, twisting sounds - always an intriguing listen!

wow - another side totally! I like the string / piano combination.

I love that metallic sound!
The cello work is especially good.
nicely done!!
excellent - this is a great song perfectly played and sung!!
enjoyed!!

I was going to listen to your song but then I figured I could to that tomorrow.
the individual samples for propane are stretched (and filtered) but not the composition.
luscious - beautiful I had not heard you until this morning and I'm glad I found your music and spirit.
nice spooky keys at 1:45 ish - very 60's psychedelic feel
well done!
I really this version!!
love it!
I hear a lot of melodies in this one. All of the drums seem to speak to me. Even the clave. Perhaps I'm finally getting it?
This is were its at!! Groovy!!
