November 16, 200817 yr I like it. It's very different. It manages to be very different, I'm constantly aware of it, it would not serve as background for me at all, which I think is good. Out of curiosity, do you have sheet music for this one? I'd love to see it.
November 26, 200817 yr I'd really rather this not be Midi, especially considering that you've got it filed under "avant rock," unless you're going for a synclavier kind of thing, but it kind of feels more Mr. Bungle than Zappa. I think it gets a bit too thin around the bass solo. Some of the repeated notes are a bit too ... repetitious (sorry. can't think well) The head's cool, I'm not too big a fan of the solos, but that's alright.

I wasn't aware of Mr. Bungle until you mentioned them. Interesting comparison....
November 28, 200817 yr this is very interesting and it never got boring, i'd like to see the score for this as well
November 29, 200817 yr Author Thanks very much.... I didn't know this Bungle group was so popular.... In an obscure kind of way of course....
January 1, 200917 yr I really dig this track. It is definitely original. I hope you pursue what you're on to here. I think this piece is something that you must be focused on to appreciate, Its not something that I could enjoy without effort. I think the irregular time signature and jazz style create a lack of predictability that keeps my brain confused and on edge. For some reason I got a factory vibe from this piece, the percussive sounds and hectic, irregularly rhythmic pace of the song are somewhat reminiscent of a factory environment. I really liked the sudden transition at 1:34 and the brief change of feel that followed it. In fact, that was my favorite part of the piece and it felt allot less dissonant than the rest of it. Even though it felt more intense than the rest of the work, It also felt like a satisfying release of tension to me, and more effortlessly enjoyed. I would be interested to hear what you would do with this sort of music if you employed synthesizers instead of conventional instruments. I'm also curious what sort of time signature this is written in. Great piece.

I purpose did that to indicate that sometimes 4/4 gets a bum rap now and again. It appears many have asked the same question. I knew that would be the case. Much appreciated....
