Apologies to Peter and the rest of Genesis - from back when they were good - 1974

yes, I found a midi file and applied my samples and a bit of editing and re-tuning to it. It must of taken forever to put this into a computer. http://www.classicalarchives.com/midi.html
Pretty whores and fat queers
make bicycle parts in a factory
not far from here, and it
doesn't make a difference
if its weird or if its strange
just superficial words
from a long gone age
and I couldn't hold a candle to them
and I wouldn't…

This video is really raw and weird!! I like it!
Is the audio post a stretch of the video post?
This rough track uses my Blue Just Tuning system (go to www.johnsmusic7.com for details and a photo of the guitar). This is the same tuning Chris Vaisvil used in his Excluded By Peers piece. I hope to add some lead to the track soon.
Not sure where I was going with this, but it ended up quite dreary for what I thought were quite motivating lyrics.
Watch this space, it may well appear again with more upbeat music.

this is actually in a microtonal tuning - but a very mild difference from the usual

Around & Around (Lyrics)
Now you are my lady and i’ll never understand why you had to runaround with that other man
you know you’d send me crazy you know that i’m not sound when you leave me…
Here's a cover of a zep classic...from Reg and Speed Demon Gene....Gene has done all the music and the mixing..thanks Gene ....and i'm responsible for the warbling..... hope you enjoy
Please - this is not the concept I asked her contribution for. I didn't feel right putting her voice up without a credit. But.... this doesn't do justice - I got things I need to do but I will have a better setting.
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
The closing round was delightful as was the udderbot in the final song. I should probably make an udderbot...
I love the way the violin takes over from the voice in the run up. Clever! Nice track!
Smack damn, microtonal jazz. Nice Chris. I really like the floating bass in this one. And the Sax of course.
really diggin the blues tune. Shocking photo
Is this the strat you took the frets off sanded down, etc? Sounds great. Crispy.
Is that Zoom H2 battery operated?
Mesmerising!
Glad you're all safe. Digging these bluesy tones. -Tess
Great playing mate. That's one huge storm.
Very cool mix mate great sounds.
I'll take this track as a sign that you survived. nice jam.
Dang. That swings!
Such a refreshing piece man!
Frisky jazz! -Tess S
OOOH thats jazzy......love it
if I heard this down that cave Chris I think I'd get the heebyjeeby's.....superb atmospheric sounds .......
It is so nice these effects and sound developments I know there is lots of things like this out there but your work is IMO better.
Put on a fox head mask and channel Peter Gabriel. Nice!
Now that's nice mate very cool.
Smooth groove! awesome guitars! this one hit the charts!

and your grapics are stunning!
delicious!
nicely done! Love the vocal harmonies!
Thanks for listening. It is a 12 tet steel string acoustic guitar harmonically filtered with D 36.8 Hz as the root. So I'd say its harmonic series.
oh vocal harmonies to die for....
excellent!!
