A crazy zaperish Grooms nightmare dream .......way too. short a piece of excellence........loved the bass working its way through the crazy vibes going on.....loved it fav'd and saved
This is a traditional piece that dates back to at least the 16th century. Since the version I have is instrumental I used what is called Pythagorean Tuning and period instruments to render it. (alto recorder, bells (crotales), fiddle, and bodhran…
This is a composition that was realized by playing a Fender Mustang which has a divided pickup connected to a Roland GR-20 guitar to midi converter / synthesizer. The GR-20 generated piano and saxophone sounds (in two passes) which were re-tuned…
Berceuse (means cradle song - or lullaby) by Chopin Op. 57 midi recorded by Ron Lubetsky, M.D. in 1997. And indeed I can tell from the midi file this was a real performance. I ran it through pianoteq in Sonar X1. I hope you enjoy it.

Quiet
Quiet thoughts for quiet fights
Tumbled dry and folded rights
Wrapped up in a candied floss
Shrink-wrap now removed and lost
Curled, crunched into a ball
Out the window, into a wall
Bounce and twist and turn and spin
The truth is beaten…
Calling
There ain't no future without a past
all of the promises that just won't last
I don't believe anymore
Just don't believe anymore
One became two in the sin of despair
beyond the moment where there was a care
I can't breath anymore

I generally take my Zoom H2 portable digital recorder with me on my trips to music stores to record myself playing equipment I can’t afford to buy. This is one of today’s recordings. June 24th 2011
I travel the synthesizer (two 5 minute tracks) and cymbal rooms at Guitar Center with my Zoom H2. Since I play in the same key more or less it works more or less. Thank you John Cage.
This is a Gibson Epiphone Roadie 1/2 scale guitar I picked up used at Guitar Center for $30. It was on the block because no one set it up. The intonation was horrific. And to top it off the bridge is ever so slightly too close to the nut. But…

Often I am asked about the difference between "normal" 12 equal tuning and microtonal tuning.
Thanks to a retuning by Gene Ward Smith to meantone tuning (I don't know which) you can compare this famous piece of music in the familiar 12 equal…
A manipulated ambient-ish piece
Sound sources, 5 string bass, 18" and 14" china cymbal, cornet, mixed tuning, 6 edo, 12 edo, unconstrained pitch.
kudos for anyone who listens to the whole thing.

For the daughters of two of my favorite people.
Bonfire Lullaby
Dannah studies my hands while I play
With heavy eyes at the end of a runaround day
Fading fast ‘neath a summer night’s sky
No need to wonder why
Time stands still in her…
Keith - this is lovely - not only the song / guitar / vocals but also the sentiment and the slice of real life. This is a definition of beauty and serenity and... Love.
It was busy down the cellar tonight.....someone slipped something into Reg's and Jim's drink........now their out there trying to find the gold for the mind from the other side..........we tried to stop them but you know what their like when they…

I'm trying to experiment with intentionally combining two different sounds. Since I seem to find this difficult I am starting with using a drone as one of the sounds taking my inspiration from the opening tracks of the Brian Eno & Jah Wobble…
Reg has done a reading from Edgar Allen Poe's work The Raven for you this evening in one take mistakes and all ....he hopes the words wash over you with some understanding....it was a bit of a tongue twister
Reg was watching the ladies on the dance floor then suddenly one took his eye.................................a bit of noodle that turned into something........
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…

Agree that it's wild, but I like the common thread running through it and the bass work is awesome.

This is pretty sweet - lovely laid back tones.

Did you two find the mushrooms? :-)
Your vocals keep getting better and more "Reg" with every song - its great to listen to !
I think Steve Hackett is very under appreciated. I can't understand why.
great production and concept - I'm with Bethan on this.
I like this version a lot! Nice key work - great vocals as well!
wow! very cool - it sounds a lot like that picture especially towards the end.
I thought you said you couldn't play guitar! This is an awesome cover!! We need to do the Joe Cocker version "With a Little Help From my Friends"!
awesomeness!! Reg I love your inner rock star!
very nice - alien sounds - it should be the world anthem for the spacer world Aurora in Asimov's I Robot series.
can I set this to music?? This awesome!
I like the effects! nice groove
I do like the sound of the guitar lead 3-ish quite a lot.
Enjoyed - I like your progressive rock / electro sound here.
excellent cover.
