a new monster track the world has been waiting for.Its a big one. enormous care was taken to detail.
Featuring a real guitar solo a barking dog and roaring elephant.This tune has it all.full of musical surprises and absurdities.

Well it's different...but I liked it, it's actually quite listenable to. I don't usually like this type of thing, but yours was enjoyable. Can almost imagine it as background music to some new age arty film

Thanks for listening.I very rarely have any style or end result in mind.it just evolves and one thing leads to another.i try to make it listenable though and make it interesting.

Lush arrangement, Steve Vai level guitar shred and a dog, looking sharp in a suit. Everything in place.
Did a reverse image search - Donald Roller Wilson paintings are fantastic.

Just like me, you're getting weirder with age.
I loved it. True originality with influences.
Now if I could only play it on the triangle.

Thanks.I think there were 50 tracks on that tune.the first track was the drum beat using heavyocitys dm-307 which is an amazing beat machine.it took about a month to do that tune.id go up abd fiddle about every now and again.i cant spend more than an hour at the recording machine it becomes a struggle after that.it has to be a fun thing to do or it becomes pointless.

Way cool!
The Eastern influence in instrumentation and scale caught my attention right off the bat.

Best comment! Usually, if my wife hates it, I love it.
This reminds me of ZAPPA on Civilization Phaze III, or weirder VAI. I also agree that this does have "catchy" moments that keep me interested, unlike a lot of "musique concrete" music.
Very cool. Where's the rest of the album?
