Maybe when rage against the machine starts playing live again, they will do another show on wallstreet and make it close...in the maintime....this should freeze it up. :)
George Gershwin in 1926 composed 3 preludes for piano. George synthesized American Jazz and European classical music to make a very recognizable musical voice.
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…

Too Many Years
It's been too many years since I've seen you
But sometimes that face appears before me
I still don't understand what went on
I refuse to believe that you could possibly really hate me
And of the people that I have known
You remain…
apologies to the fab four
scored for orchestral percussion, harp, harpsichord, dbl bass, string ensemble, men's choir and flute.
Interesting aside...
This is the only Beatles song covered by The Residents - because it is the only Beatles song…

I used sonar 8.5 matrix view to turn my M-audio 88es into a sampler keyboard - assigning samples to almost every key. Most of the samples are field recordings from today and yesterday - most of the others are recordings I made of a drumset I…
This is the first song I uploaded to share on the internet when I first donned the name Alpha_Alpha. Thanks to fellow 'lonetoners and SoOn friends Norm and Vaisvil for contributing to make this song really special!
Having fun this week at my own expense, not my genre but what the heck. I used all the kids that were playing at my house on Monday for the chorus - had a blast.
Collaborators: my kids Dylan, Zack, Ally with Jake Henning , Haley Henning

This particular broadcast was talked out about a half hour before I went to my 'You Screwed up' meeting at school. I'd barely woken up and I was ready to Talk Hard about Life (It's capatilized because it's the only one YOU'VE got. That means it…
Second movment,, perhaps a little rough,, comments welcome,,, 6/11 Third mov is now done,,, and very very different from the first two,, scares me a little

Hi Richard, keeping the peace in space is all guitar and percussion. I used guitar effects quite liberally on Brian's, Norm's and my parts. The opening is Brian stretched to 8x and the organ-like part in the last 3rd is Brian's guitar backwards in part and the the 2 chord set copied and pasted a few times.

did a remix of latest B-52s (ex B-52's) song "Funplex". i admit i didn't really take the time to polish this, so it might have some flaws here and there, but it was fun to do and after all, is this not what matters most? :)
and you can…
You're just kidding yourself if you thought I could resist the chance to add a bit of percussion to this wonderful song by Osckilo & Launched. I used Paiste Sound Discs to create a 3vs.4 polyrhythm against the delightful underlying 4/4 Spanish…

Excellent, bravo for the Allegro.
Nice lyrics, Chris! Very true, true, and poetic. Thanks for writing this!
Yes, very nice!
No way man i liked your version. Nice!
Short n Sweet!
Cool song!
Nice! Drumming sounds great and the guitar work is excellent.
I didn't realize that this is the only song all 4 created together... one of their best IMHO. Wild video!
This is really cool Chris!
Neat!

you sound like Radiohead from In Rainbows in places here!
I love this tune! I have in my car and listen to it fairly often!
dude - I love your voice! Nice wah work! Great voice by the kids!
Nice! - I like how it turns into a prog rock piece almost about 1:40 ish
the problem here is that this IS the truth. and that is sad. Nice podcast!
love the deep percussion and sexy tune!
I can't play it :-0 OR delete it...
Nice - I was wondering where you've been!! - and at least your song plays :-)
Actually, if you wanted, I could try a treatment like Keeping the Peace in Space on one of your piano pieces, if you'd like.

cool!!
all of this sounds so real!
wow~~!!
I love this~!! excellent!! How did you get the advant guard sounds?
this is beautiful and moving. I wish I could play piano this well. Awesome work Richard!
Rockin!!
nice piece - good progression - does sound western
this is so expressive, especially once the piano comes in.
if you wish for me to take down my re-mix of your piece let me know.
excellent!! I really like this collab! The voice perhaps could be a touch louder other than that this is excellent!
