A traditional piece from the renaissance arranged for flute and two classical guitars.
I used meantone tuning which is probably a bit more authentic - though so very close to 12 equal that you may not notice the difference. http://en.wikipedia…

What an interesting talk. I really enjoyed that, now need time to give it some thought.
The music is certainly eerie enough to accompany such a video. It's very loud!

I'm surprised I forgot to post this collaboration with Norm and Char.
Char performs the reading
Norm performs the percussion
Chris did choir, sax, bass, FXs

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.

ok this is the center portion of the the tape transfer and remix so if you like the intro and end so on this just gets more intense that it is centered and focused some.
to create your own new work play the video and music together .. each time…
This is a captured and then edited live performance using the Sonar Matrix view using various samples - some of which were paul stretched.
I'm liking this - if only they had the possibility to change the pitch live it would be like sticking…
This was a collab i heard today on Songcrafters and was wondering wether to ask to have a go at it vocally when Tharek sent me message asking me to have a go so Thanks Tharek and Dave, i am more than pleased to give it a go. i loved this music…
i was listening to a post of this Beatles cover by oldrottenhead this morning,,it is a really great song, so this evening i sort of just sort of sat down an let it happen,,i didn't even really know the song as much as i might like,, but i find…
Hi Richard, Re: Hotel Cali => yes clarinet for main vocal, oboe for backing vocal - everything you hear is from Kontakt's standard sample set. Thank you for the listen and comment!
Chris sent this track to me earlier today with the request that I add some percussion to it.
I had something different in mind.
After the first take I was afraid to return it to him, fearing that he would convert it to 23 edo or something…

Nothing.
It’s burning and I love it.
It’s so clear

I love the clarity.

This is a piece using 2 keyboards, an M-Audio 88es (vocal choir) and Alesis Q49 (brass choir) in 17 notes per octave. The objective was to use some functional xenharmonic chord progressions. I would be interested in knowing if you perceive the…
one could make any brass instrument to play in any temperament by valve placement and tubing length as far as I know. On the other hand 24 note per octave (and finer divisions) are avalable on wodwind and brass with using alternate fingering. On a recent trip to Urbana for a performance Peter's composition called for french horn playing in harmonic series tuning - but I guess the actual use comes close to 72 equal. The video of that is here: (go to about 16:40 .) http://www.youtube.com/user/clones98#p/u/30/OjY4LwBV8sM
Reg has got a kinda Bluesy political thing going on this one.....he's been reading the paper and watching the news..........it's a little too long but i think he makes a point.......do you?
Two ambient guitar tracks recorded independently and stick together. I broke my rule of not using distortion on a BL piece, for the first time, believe it or no.
I'm not on top of it as usual, guys. But I did manage to let Greg Brady out of my basement and set him free. This is his testimonial regarding the incident. I hope he can forgive me.
Once upon a rainy day, we were out in the farm fields waiting on the sun to break through the gloom. We arrived in this dark world naked and were washed clean waiting for the sun. Little darling, here it comes...

Oh that's pretty. Very beautifully done.
beautifully done, the sound seemed like perfection,to my ear. well played
Excellent dimensional ambient. And nope, it's not a Dulcimer but a Lute (Petit Italien). Thank you for your kind comments.
Worked great! Very nice! A perfect bedtime track man.
I really like this one - it has a nice style to it
One of the deepest and purest ambient/international piece Ive heard from you, the use of the Irish instruments are shivering!!
What an interesting talk. I really enjoyed that, now need time to give it some thought. The music is certainly eerie enough to accompany such a video. It's very loud!
.......i wonder how magic the mushrooms would be from Jim morrisons remains ............
Ahh, my comments sometimes don't make it in. I have to keep checking on that. Anyway, it was positive whatever I said :)
I love the steel!!! You got a great sound here and the playing is fantastic!
Fantastic, inventive stuff.
yes, sounds lovely to me. That poor little chap in the nappy. No wonder he looks so embarrassed.
Good stuff. Something I was in the mood for. :) --Jake
love it!
love it ......
still excellent ....love char's v
Chris, this is truly wonderful work! And this is my 2nd attempt at telling you!
Hackett and this one are a big fave of mine, nice take on a beautiful melody.
This is great!!! I'm loving the chorus.
That's some extreme baroque!

that genesis piece is beyond my skill to play - but it took a bit of work to get it to be nice with my software.
I am amazed at how you constantly pull new textures from your equipment. Very cool - parts sound like a futuristic police chase.
I see you've taken up body levitation as evidenced by your avatar picture. :-)
your new avatar is freaky!
very cool sound - I like this piece quite a bit!

funky indeed!!
cool reg!
yes I do. Nice piece!
this sounds fantastic!
I know you've seen this somewhere before - but it bares repeating. This is a really nice piece - excellent improvisation!!!
this is so *strange*
I expected Beatles - boy was I surprised!! This is a wonderful bright, bubbly pop song - almost Beach Boys - but really good and modern!
nicely done - I enjoyed listening and especially the climax at 3' as pointed out.
very nice!
like I need to be encouraged!
