Hi, this is my first post here, hope this is ok...

Announcement:

An improvisation recorded April 20, 2002 on a microtonal virtual
piano, extended with traditional electronica-influenced
arpeggiator technique and digital delay. The improvisation captures
the the barbaric qualities of my quartertone suite, Acid Bach, with
my later piano preludes. A piece in development; working towards a
series of new quartertone electronic compositions.

***Hi Jeff!

Nice to see you posting here. Yes, this piece really does combine
elements of your earlier styles. I'm still a great fan of the _Acid
Bach_ series, though...

best,

Joe Pehrson

Hi Jeff.

this is a cool piece. Sounds sort of like someone running
through a maze full of smoke and mirrors, with false doors and
pitfalls at every turn. It sounds like an internal journey where the
listener is transported to a world where cpnsiousness is their
key out of a trap.

Anyone thats what i got from it..

Thanks for sharing it,

Justin

That's pretty cool description, Justin... FWIW, I've remixed it a
little (changed the EQ so it's not so muddy here and there but didn't
modify the improv at all) and my wife talked me into naming it, Amor
Loco... :)
