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

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…

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.

'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free
'Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be,
And when we find ourselves in the place just right,
'Twill be in the valley of love and delight.
When true simplicity is gain'd,

This will sound out of tune and very odd to most people... and certainly its not a "quality instrument". But it IS lo-fi :-)
I changed my $30 electric guitar from Just Intonation fretting to 14 equal notes per octave using cable ties, loaded…
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…

My first attempt at a Blumlein or Mid/Side recording. This one is actually a mid/side recording as I used a directional mic in combo with a figure 8 ribbon mic set at 90 degrees from the main mic. Thanks to Pat Broaders for the loan of the ribbon…
This track is from the 1986 Scartaglen album "The Middle Path". The first tune "Jezaig" was composed by Breton musician Gilles Le Bigot. The second tune is one of the "Cantigas de Santa Maria" and is attributed to King Alfonso X of Spain

nope - those are chinese gongs - some just have natural phasing - I don't know how that works but there it is. Also, according to the gong samples I have you can get a large number of different sounds depending how they are struck. Heck, I forgot, Norm has a gong - a pretty big one too - I bet he could make you some custom gong samples if you'd like.
I did this in order to stretch it out about 20 times as long as it is and did just that but or should I say because I used a very low sample size for the sound I would get something similar to echo stretches just like a 2k size of sample in paulstretch…

Outland (The Ballad of Jarrod X)
words and music by VIVIAN CIRCLE
Mother, why did you lie to me?
I didn't have to make the same mistakes as you.
Father, why did you run away?
There was so many things left unspoken with you.
Jarrod walks…
Chris sent me this great tune playing his 17 ET guitar and fretless bass, and for some reason i thought Mafia instantly. Sammy the Bull was the under-boss to John Gotti back in the 80's and 90's and he turned informer to bring John Gotti down…

thanks Chris,, i'll have to look into this one,, Chopin is,,, well who can argue with Chopin,, im not familiar with this but the right hand is getting a great work out, it's a beautiful piece and nicely played thanks for sharing
Wow, takes me right back to my primary school (C of E...lots of hymns). Lovely version!
Nice one.
Beefy riffage!
Love it ......nice and jazzy with that sax......
Very cool mate

Showing your hard rock roots! Very cool (and heavy)!
Beautiful! (You must have slipped this one by me during one of your particularly productive times)
Deeply affecting vocal! Who's the singer? Wow!

this is lovely contemplative and serene.
My Debbie is very picky and loves this piece! She says "its sounds very pretty!"
this is lovely - sounds Anthony Phillips

this one is less defined some how
ooo 0:16 - like the electric guitar feedback sound! you are getting a lot of great textures!
some Janis Joplin or Joe Cocker vocals would really finish this one off!
the video gives the impression of galactic nebula super imposed on visceral human organic residues - this is a really unique video Bill.
much more effective with the video and stretch! this looks so cool!!
I love The Lamb - this is great!
love the slide!
great campfire tune!
what is that opening lead instrument? it is so strong! I love your vocals.
it is such a sad sounding piece.
nice easy listening piece - very rich!
who cannot love a track with a name like this? Awesome mind-messing tremolo.
damn you sound like Joe Cocker now! This is great all the way around. - Been behind - I had not heard the original - or I don't remember it
I use pianoteq mostly. Your piece is very beautiful.
indeed - you brought this baby to life!! Bravo Reg!
you two are Mr Funk!!
