Adaptive Just Intonation (trying to keep the harmonies pure)
full screen and HD recommended for the video - to see the software in action responding to my (edited) improvisation.
microtonal piano improvisation
it was pointed out to me at 2:54 you can hear Mary Had a Little Lamb - totally unintentional and in a completely foreign tuning to boot!

Organ in 15 Porcupine - I'm not very happy with this. I've fussed with it for a couple hours and it still sounds like disembodied phrases thrown together haphazardly to me. YMMV
Angelos Quetzacoatl composed this piece and then we performed it on video for your enjoyment during a recent visit. Angelos plays fretless guitar and I play fretless bass in 24 edo (quartertones).

Reg was sat below the cliff having a sneaky smoke and he couldn't believe what he was witnessing ......I recorded the acoustic with the mic then added bass then a bit of piano and string then the tele then I decided what the subject would be and…
A Richard Serra memorial performance by the tribe inside the Serra sculpture Vortex at the Fort Worth Modern Art Museum. A passerby provided some vocals.
Inspiration was seeing Kavin Allenson's pictures from his jam in the Fort Worth sculpture Vortex. I wasn't going to do in Pure Data but I opened PD to setup a base structure of oscillators to use to tune one of my modules. I got a stuck note…
got to listen to this today - it is excellent - I like how you layered and peeled back the layers to close. I a big fan of happy accidents and I'm glad you found this one!
I like the development in this. Nice work - you always pull out the unexpected from the synths you work with regardless of the format. I would not have guessed this to be Animoog!
from the album "FULL MINGO"

pain in my heart
it's probably nothing
song in my head
it's time to say something
living this life
it's got to be all
the time
chasing the dream
and i'm always…
This is interesting - there is this hint of Debussy in the chords and melodies (especially in the first half) but they come across in an Ivesian fashion - as though through shattered glass. Thank you for another fantastic piece !
Billy wanted a project for the 2023 Christmas holidays and asked some of his extremely talented musician friends to play on this track.
Matt Smith: Guitars & backing vocals
Paul Matthews: Pianos & organ
Naomi Daulby: Lead & backing…
Punny title to hint at the sound origin; the sounds left on a reel of tape (or in this case, two different ones) after it has undergone a bulk-erase procedure - placing it on a device that creates a strong electromagnetic field that scrambles…
Four different tracks of Roland SE-02 controlled via MIDI by a Casio DH-100. Choosing different voices on the Casio causes settings to change on the Roland, which were then tweaked a little. Submitted to Sound-In "Roleplay Improv" for 1-8/2/2024.
Three different versions of a similar line created using the onboard sequencer on a Roland SE-02. the different voices were created by changing settings on a Casio DH-100 digital horn attached via MIDI, and playing the horn. Submitted to Sound…
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
Interesting tuning!
Wonderfully festive sounds for Winter!
kinda got a Mike Oldfield Vibe going ....excellent have listen to this quite a bit
Interesting combination of musical sounds
Crazily inventive! Great stuff, CV!
Interesting. Not familiar with Lainhart. Will have to check out his work
I didn't hear Mary had a little lamb. Oh it's at 2.54
pretty so pretty :)
Yes, why not give it a rest for a while and come back to it later. You may surprise yourself. It's all there, you just need to fine tune it perhaps.
Very inspiring, guys!
Impressive runs!
Aw, now I want curried porcupine...
Call it what you like, I enjoyed it.
You are wacked for sure my friend :) Love the tones. I still can't get a handle on microtonal myself though I like it when you do it!
Can one have too much curry?
Well even porcupines need love! "Sorry they're so sharp" uh hu!
Has all the fascinating flavours of India.
It's interesting watching you guys working together. I could make the tea!
You get the prize for innovation! It's very interesting watching you guys. Ah! cute kitty!
Just found the headphones in 3 year old's bed. The tones have come alive and anyway, how do you play that thing?

This is great!
Nice one!
One of your best compositions. It’s a strangely compelling story with the protagonist worthy of a Darwin Award.
Quite like this! - has such a nice sense of space and clear timbre definition.
I really liked this - the female voice really hit home - nice jam! Is she the passerby?

lofi and exotic - what not to like?
Another great piece!

nice work Kavin!
This is a really nice composition!
sweet ambiance

Definitely true to the original - very excellent work!
You always come up with inventive ways to generate sound and I admire that - this is quite cool as it sounds underwater to me.
another brilliant DH-100 application!
such a foreboding piece - were you thinking about it being an election year here in the states?
Nice pocket between ambient, EDM and experimental electronic!
I enjoyed your performance very much!
This is the most unique use of a DH-100 that I know of!
