Well, I finally got my hands on a 17 note per octave electric guitar thanks for Brad Smith, a local Luthier who did a lovely conversion of a Jay Turser strat copy I bought at the local Guitar Center for $65. The guitar is nicely very bright…

great spooky start.....is everybody in?....the show is about to begin.......something is trying to eat the notes ....watch out.........or is it the inside of my head .........raise the alarm.........no it's ok it's going away ......I think it's gone back in the sea.........but I'm keeping an eye out....great stuff....throughly enjoyed the ride
just had a listen to this on your site excellent ........music and word go together great......was Walter an actor as I'm sure I recognise his voice from somewhere
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...
piece #6 of a cd i am writing of early music
comments about…
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.

Love like a salt river washing away
Love's like sunshine evaporate
Love like floating candles blowing away
Watch out for the way you'll compensate
When I've seen all you have to give
When I'm still hungry
I need more than this
Tell me how…
yelyah - “solo piano 20100411” semi live improv
Semi live in that I had an idea of where I wanted to go, but never locked the melody in (as is probably obvious).
Hi Richard - I don't like being bored :-) I also am experimenting with some success with microtonal music as well. Drop by www.notonlymusic.com and www.chrisvaisvil.com some time.
Now.... this is a lovely sensitive piece!

Coo, she looks relaxed! I'll have white! Nice trumpet Chris.
this sounds great chris
My favourite painting, as you know! Glad it inspired you so much! Tess S
Love that high pitch sound of the Trumpet! nice!
Ah! Reg, you are right. I thought she looked familiar. I wonder what she is looking at - no doubt somebody has dropped their wallet on the sofa.
you haven't got involved with Desirea .....she's no good for you Chris she' ll turn you to drink for sure.....it starts with one glass you know......great tune though.......
They say a good wine has nice legs...
Inspiring I like the accompanying monolog too.
Well creepy!
Instant favorite!
Some spooky sounds guys:) for example the stepping distorted light shoe tapping (L to R)...Perfect!
you hear a far off voice, the back ground music to the cosmos
This is Great and Stealing Pumpkins is really gettin' around. Maybe everyone should do a version. :)
