Great stuff Tim. Now this is the kind of guitar that is hard to improvise. You really got a nice feel from the guitars in this piece.

Supercreep, Nakatira, zacanger, samurai pirate llama herder and cmhansen – Glad you listened and thanks for posting. :)

Supercreep and K-dub – Yep, I’m planning to go JF7. :cool:

Naka – I’ll check out Jan Akkerman and carnival fugue, thanks.

zacanger, Supercreep – cello would be great. Baritone also. Cello, with the bowed sound might contrast well. Hmmm.

Snake – alien geometry, acoustic chaos. I like those terms. :D
 
Hey Track Rat, thanks for the listen. Here's to Williams and Bream [lifts his beer bottle]! Sorry I missed you in the last post. The site has been up and down for the last while and it was throwing me off.
 
Reminded me of the short improvisation on Leonard Cohen's Live Songs from what 30 years ago. Only the one guitar there but the melancholy beginning of your piece is an excellent mood match.
Have you experimented with atonality? I can imagine you doing Schoenberg.
Lovely.
 
Thanks Ray.
Have you experimented with atonality?
Yeah, but I lean more towards free chromaticism and polytonality than structured atonality like serialism.

Not that I don't like "traditionally" tonal music too... that's most of what I play, but the changeup and looseness makes things interesting.
 
Cool stuff Tim. I think the wind chime description was a good one. You're hanging with Drstawl on this one.
 
Very cool stuff, Tim!
Sounding very well as always.
Have you planed any of those lines or it just came up spontaneously?
 
Tim, first off I would like to say I wish I had your playing skills. Beautiful execution, dare I say it, "flawless".

I don't know what your goal is on this piece, but I'm going to assume you want it to be a stand-alone piece instrumentally as-is. I know you track in a large living room with good acoustics, but I'm wondering if I don't hear some added reverb additionally. Whatever the case is, perfect. If you are going to produce this as a track, my humble ears would say this: reverb amount is perfect on the tracks, but I wonder if you could take those tracks out from the reverb out mains, or a reverb out mains if you are relying on natural acoustics of the room, and side chain them to add some 'depth' to the sound. This kind of piece undoubtedly should be direct and forward, but I can't help to hear that a little background 'ambience' on separate tracks would be cool to add that 'depth'. Just a thought. Sounds fantastic, and I am also curious what mics and angles you used to record these tracks. I didn't hear ANY hiss or prominent background noise. Impressive, man. :) :) :)
 
Omg

Tim, have you been listening to Caldera lately?

Isn't this a version of Brujeria?

So thats where Jorge Strynz got it from!!

T :eek:
 
Travis – Thanks. I like Drstawls’s stuff I’ve heard.

sikter – all just off the cuff I have to admit. Appreciate the listen.

Seeker – Thank you but, heh, you should hear the flaws in the unedited version. :eek: It wasn’t tracked in my usual room but in my really reflective entryway, but the bad HF aspects were filtered out for the most part. It was close miked, at about a foot from the bridge aimed at the end block, going into an RNC on supernice mode. KEL HM1 mike. I added half second SIR “small church” verb to give it a bit of ambience. So you’re thinking a bit more, maybe longer verb would sound good? I’ll try it out.

Tonio – last time I heard Strunz and Farah was a few yrs ago but glad I’m not the only one doing crazy stuff like this.
