. although there is some whole tone scales here and there, mostly my goal was trying to avoid traditional intervals and cadences (although a couple slipped in). i started from a one hand ad lib improv and cut and pasted it into its final form. thanks Check out my latest song called Lunar Eclipse (w/ tonestones, awigze, scofugate)

. that's the term i was looking for: tone poem. like i said to lunatrick, i was trying to avoid the usual harmonic things, i even tried to abandon rhythmic regularity as well thank you Check out my latest song called Lunar Eclipse (w/ tonestones, awigze, scofugate)

Excellent performance Bill! Really wonderful piece in true twentieth century style. Really enjoyed this. Can you do an entire suite please? Check out my latest song called All Fall Down w/Particledots

. it wasn't actually performed, it was more like assembled i guess - the original midi recording had far less content than the outcome. an entire suite? hmmm... maybe. i'll keep that in mind and see if it happens. thank you Check out my latest song called Lunar Eclipse (w/ tonestones, awigze, scofugate)

Rich track Appropriately chilly and still. I wish it were twice as long, though. Cheers, Check out my latest song called Forum Song

. i kind of squeezed as much as i could from the small amount of material i had. i suspect that twice as long would be 4 times harder to do - but who knows? i was also concerned that the longer it runs, the more likely it would become tiresome - there is no cohesiveness, like a repeating motif or anything. but maybe i should explore this style a bit more? thanks Check out my latest song called Lunar Eclipse (w/ tonestones, awigze, scofugate)

Sorry... ...your music is great, but your titles are too frightening... Gotta go buy extra milk and candles and bring in some more wood... I love it when musicians are able to step outside various conventions and still be a really sweet listen, very accessible...I think you've done that here.

Love the use of the whole tone scale.... and parallel movement. Nice work!
