12 string improvisation - title came from a person who said I didn't understand "deep blues". That is probably true which is why I got the blues ;-(

This is a study on using split keyboards and virtual instrument layering for live performance. More information is here http://chrisvaisvil.com/?p=1050 if you are into that sort of thing.
Also Lucian Freud has died today. I’m using one…
Heh, I couldn't believe I forgot to share this with my friends here. Well here is the story. I'm sure you'll only listen once and probably not all the way to the end.

Recorded for ImprovFriday - yes I flub some notes badly and that G minor had no right being there!! - that's the danger of a live improvisation, at least at my skill level. The guitar is an Epiphone C70CE classical acoustic with piezo pickup…

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…

It took a bit of doing and a lot of learning - I've built my first guitar
I have a video of all of the stills I took while making the guitar with some demonstration music.
The music has mistakes - but it is the first time I played it - I spent…
well well, a bit of the CV magic goes a long way,,,first off i love it!! the softer somewhat understated approach is superb, is that clarinet in the main? love it's blue feel,,,, there's almost a slight klesmer feel to this (2nd listen),, you musta had a lot of fun doing this,,, the more i listen i, hear just how well you have orchestrated/put this together,, very very well done,, as always i am amazed by your broad range of skills and musicianship,, yours,,, Richard

Another work in progress down the cellar.............a first cut...........
I KNOW HOW LOVE CAN FEEL(Lyrics)
I know how love can feel
I know that love can heal
i know i kneel before you
i know it can burn you, destroy you
i know how love can…
Thank you for the comments on Sympathy for a Friend. I didn't use a synthesizer. All of the sound is from one take on my 19 note per octave guitar + effects.
Sort of a Tuesday improv...
Built up around a synth texture that I built up with:
Operator->FilterStation->Volcano->Kombinat->Panstation->RP-Delay
(what's the fun in having plugins if you can't abuse them)
Heres a collab with Wildgeas Music a beautiful bit of music hope i did it justice with the vocal............
Tomorrow (Lyrics)
I know the curse of the darkness is coming
those dark nights that will feed upon my soul
with no forward glance of tomorrow…
So after hearing some of Stephen Krell's outstanding picking, I asked him if he'd like to play along with any of my songs... I can't be happier with the one he picked to add his banjo to (seeing as how the song is written about my favorite Pete…
Different recording here as the electric guitar, bass guitar were not plugged in, just recorded raw with a power mic and then EQ'ed to make it sound amped - pardon mistakes!
Nice song - I did finally get around to listening to it :-) So this is literally unplugged hard bodied normally electric instruments - I've never heard of this being done before - awesome idea!!
So after listening to some of Chris Vaisvil's music for mapped midi and such I caught the bug of inspiration and did similar but in my own way. should of included extra things but there was the on the fly idea going.

baby! This is great!! I suggest running the mp3 through Paul's Extreme Stretch too if youu haven't taken a listen. What this reminds me of is some of the odd ends and bits on Beatles albums I always wished was longer. In places it sounds backwards, other places an orchestra tuning up, other places a spaceship. Wow. man I'm floored - you really have a lot, I do mean a lot in two and a half minutes!! Check out Dan Stearns - http://homemademusic.com/daniel_stearns/info_237.php I think you'll like what he is doing.

A song of hope...
and i apologize for the "noise"...I'll try to figure it out.
here are the lyrics.
waiting in the dark
never hearing the words
waiting for the spark
to revive a dying heart
so you think it's your fault
a buried belief…
Reg has never really understood Love.......... not in last 20years since first hearing this song .........it's still all a Mystery to him................
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
Gotta pay ya dues to play da blues. You gett,n it.
Lovely Eastern flavours!
I've been transformed into something 10 degrees cooler. Love the composition!
very nice!
Still, wow. Never heard of L. Freud, until now. thanks
This is breath stopping stuff. The gong is alarming and I found the whole composition extremely mysterious.
Great mix mate cool.
Cool mixing.
Agree with Norm it was fun ......now the important question is it going to pink or yellow........
Wow...very intriguing!
Yes, it's going somewhere though. You do love your oriental sounds don't you!
This makes me want to take some time and learn the OMPT too.
Nice one mate.
OMPT = Open Mod Plug Tracker - a program that turns your computer into a sampler.
Nicely done mate very cool.
Excellent stuff.....love the vocal adds tremendously to the madness........
Powerful Sound!
!!

Different and beautiful (full on effects) desecrating the beauty of all matter.

Hi Bethan - I have no idea who played it - but they did an excellent job. The midi file I found somewhere in the 90's.
wow - another side totally! I like the string / piano combination.

I love that metallic sound!
The cello work is especially good.
nicely done!!
excellent - this is a great song perfectly played and sung!!
enjoyed!!

I was going to listen to your song but then I figured I could to that tomorrow.
the individual samples for propane are stretched (and filtered) but not the composition.
luscious - beautiful I had not heard you until this morning and I'm glad I found your music and spirit.
nice spooky keys at 1:45 ish - very 60's psychedelic feel
well done!
I really this version!!
love it!
I hear a lot of melodies in this one. All of the drums seem to speak to me. Even the clave. Perhaps I'm finally getting it?
