Feter Did you listen through earphones? I almost found the panning to be too much that way. Glad you enjoyed my playing and thanks for stopping by. Check out my latest song called I Should Have Known

I love... .. the whirly, so this is a winner for me. Use of echo is good, and the drums work subtly in the background. Nice jam Bill - are you going to develop this further? steve Check out my latest song called Deeper (w/t Racerat)

Steve- Glad you like the sound of the whirly. I haven't yet thought of what I could do next with this, but there are some very intentional elements that might play well in a larger combination of instruments. Check out my latest song called I Should Have Known

This has a Harpsichord kind of sound and I love that title with a twist (with a TWIST... whirled... You get it? LOL I only got the pun as I wrote it LOL) Anyway I digress... it puts me in mind of travelling on a slow enjoyable train ride to.......World Peace???? Very pleasant piece, expertly produced, M Check out my latest song called Come Back Billie

Moviz The title was very carefully chosen after spending hours looking at the midi tracks in garageband which are a sort of green color that suggests....LOL I like the traveling image. Thanks for listening! Check out my latest song called I Should Have Known

Used to have . . . I used to have a Wurlitzer electric piano, which I bought around 1982. It was a nice instument for my little trailer I lived in. I did miss 88 keys, but it was nice to have this keyboard anyhow. This track reminds me of that keyboard that I should have hung on to. Your piece is very interesting. Reminds me a bit of Wendy Carlos' Switched-On Bach. I like the echo effects a lot. Imaginative and cool. The mid-range ostinato really does glue this piece together. Makes the high-register improv that much more appealing. Check out my latest song called NECAP Test song

John- The GarageBand/Clavinova combination seems to reproduce the Whirly and Rhodes sounds better than the B4 and Piano. Do you think the fancier software instruments like Akoustik Piano have the flexibility to adapt to the Clavinova as control keyboard? Your rebuilding my music vocabulary, I had to look up ostinato to make sure I knew what it meant :) I actually used the ostinato instead of a metronome to keep my playing steady.

Akoustic Sure, I've used Akoustic Piano on my MacBook, with my Clavinova at my school as controller. Works great. And my Yamaha P-120 I use at home has an action which seems to me to be identical to my Clavinova. The downside for many folks is that with these controllers, there's no aftertouch, and no pitch-bend or modulation controllers. But since I am primarily interested in akoustic piano plug-ins, I don't miss those things too much. "Ostinato" is a great word! That's one of the vocab words that I assign my kids at my school to memorize. Then I demonstrate an ostinato, using all sorts of crazy things, like patting my belly, spouting nonsense words/syllables, and just anything at all, as long as it's a repeating pattern. I like to try to 'find the fun' in any concept I'm trying to teach. And the kids really like the 'fun factor.' They can see that I'm still part kid, even though I'll soon be 48 years old. So then I have volunteers make up their own ostinato, and when they can see that it does not have to be anything too high-brow, or 'classical,' they can really have fun with it, and reinforce their music vocab at the same time. Enough typing from me. Nice track here! --- My NEW 2007 jazz piano CD on the iTunes Music Store. Check out my latest song called NECAP Test song

I must not have the ear I don't hear any blunders here. I think the brush drum is a nice addition and adds to the melody. The playing is very good. I can never seem to get the whrily piano to sound right with anything I try to make. Check out my latest song called Guillotine

Spitlogic- Well the runs are improvisations so I suppose all restrictions are off. But to my mind I did get a little too free with the rhythm in the later long runs where the echo covers the sloppiness rather than enhancing it as in the shorter runs. Thanks for your comments!

Dick If you're wearing headphones like Feter, you are getting a mega-dose of ostinato panning which is quite lock step, so you could be okay. But sometimes you are a bit off ;) Thanks for listening in. Check out my latest song called I Should Have Known

Nice one! It was a "spacey classical" feel to me. I love all the slap backs of the delay. Very enjoyable Sat. morning tune. Thanks for sharing! Peace. |

Henri Roger Thanks for seeing my direction. One of the advantages of recording is that I don't have to submit you to the bad starts or losses in concentration on the the early tries. Take care. Check out my latest song called I Should Have Known

Justbase- I am listening to your tune right now :) This is my second major experiment with long echos so I am starting to get a feel for the possibilities. I am glad you liked the results. I can play longer, but usually there are breaks in the rhythm that would be hard to edit out, so the best way to hear more is to play it again :) Check out my latest song called I Should Have Known

Cool echoes The left hands tight groove holds this one together. Funny piece with the echoes... A bit psychedelic. If I close my eyes and move to the groove I get a little dizzy;) Check out my latest song called Don't tell me what I can't w/KTB and Ingve

All we are saying .. ..is give peas a chance Bill ..I love this .. those tones are just so perfect .. quirky offbeat ending though .. bass drum seems in the wrong place ;o) found myself swaying away .. you created an ambience .. or on-bee-ons (as Henri would tell you ;o)) Get in there with the tools and FX!! It's sw sw sw these days ... Check out my latest song called Misplaced

Alan Glad you like the tune, and the punny title. I am playing around with a more intentional take on this idea but I will work on the ending of this one. There is a little slow down in the right hand that seems to work, but I didn't really solve the drum problem. Back the the garage. Check out my latest song called I Should Have Known
