Air on a C string A picture of your younger self? :-) I like the drone like nature of the piece and the string sound you have captured. Haunting. In a good way. Thanks. Check out my latest song called The Parting Of The Ways

wrong! wrong! wrong! ;-) ---How is it that even your "wrong" stuff sounds better than the "right" posts of the rest of us MJers? Way to work out the "kinks" bro... Be well! Check out my latest song called NOTION [2.0]

Perfection isn't all it is cracked up to be. In imperfection there is soul, feeling and childlike expectation. If you keep working on some things, you kill their vibrancy. I guess I don't have to tell you this. But, I'm old and I do have an opinion about everything. It i\s wonderful, Vic, in a million different ways. \Thanks.

If there is anything wrong with this ... ... then I am at a loss to know just what it might be. Well done. Check out my latest song called Young Men, White Gloves

Just ... plaintive Nothing "wrong" about that. 9 minutes of a C-drone might be a little much, but it does set up a tone that is somehow relaxing. The few measures where you shift to Bb provided a big of respite and I was thinking you might suddenly dive off into something more melodic and harmonically adventurous, but that was apparently not your intention. But there is nothing "wrong" with this track as is. The instrument itself sounds wonderful. (Tried listening last night, but MJ didn't work for anyone! Glad I caught this this morning.)

Loved this! It sounds as though it could be divided into separate movements of an ominous theme. Check out my latest song called Every Man has a Woman Who Loves Him

sustain hard not to notice the long sustaining notes. did you use the EH superego on this? either way it sets up a interesting base to build from and has a touch of a middle eastern flavor. nicely played Victor and very mesmerizing composition. Check out my latest song called Feeding The Sharks

EH This used the SuperEgo fed into a tape echo emulation on the H-9. The feedback on the tape echo quickly removes all highs giving a pretty cool organic sounding low drone. Glad you liked it. It served for me as a way of documenting me working on my viola da gamba skills. That instrument has been hanging on the wall for too long. Check out my latest song called Closing hour

I really like the drone... I hope you don't mind if I borrow that idea... I have played with a couple violinists, and had fun playing the "Cello" part on my eBow. Great piece for a Sunday night! Contemplative and relaxing. It must be a challenge to master the bow on such a piece. If I may ask, how many parts are there... it sounds like 2 or 3 parts supplying the drone alone! Great ending!

Parts This is live, one take. I've been experimenting with live electronics for playing ambient stuff. So this is based on an ElectroHarmonix SuperEgo feeding into an Eventide H-9 tape echo emulation. I play a note or a chord, freeze it in place with the SuperEgo and feed that into the H-9. That's the drone, and then I just play over it. The harmony shifts when I freeze a new chord or bass note. For the ending I turn off the SuperEgo, and then dial down the feedback on the H-9, so that the drone gradually disappears. Check out my latest song called Closing hour

Coool! Thanks and take care, Henke P.S. There were definitely gambas in the renaissance ensemble I played in as a kid (alto basson), but they did not sound quite like this ;-) Check out my latest song called Summer (Promenade) (WIP)

Airing it out If there are a million things wrong, then how come it sounds so right? Perhaps some of those things you think of as wrong are elements I think of as adding nuanced complexion. Your sonic experiments keep creating unusual listening experiences. Check out my latest song called Looking-Glass War
