Wonderful, Chris! Is this unfinished, or does it have
a name?

Are you posting this here because it's in 12?

thanks. . I think it's more or less finished. . .I may do some EQ tweaking
at some point. Not sure about a name yet. Maybe I'll name it after another
Doctor Who episode :)

Have you tried retuning it? I think a moderately-weird 12-tone
scale might work well with it.

Or what about one of those whacky Mexican wrestling stars?

This isn't done in Csound, for heaven's sake, is it? I'd be at least
mildly curious as to the tools used to create this. I love the
'looping' phrases that hocket around the time signature. Great
contrasting sections, interesting instrumentation.

Damn, I hate it when the composers post music.

Cheers,
Jon

Funny, I did think of one title called "MexJoy", because I though of the
beginning as having a kind of Mexican feel or something, but I don't know
about that anymore.

No not Csound, just my XV-3080 (Roland) and ProTools digi001. Not even
any plug-ins, just "Audio Suite" (which is like non time-varying
plugins.) There are also recorded and processed samples thrown in.
Nothing algorithmic though.

Yep, just as I figured: your "Composer" card is paid up in full. :)
Always nice to know it isn't one of the kid's playing a couple of
"one-finger concerto" patches on a synth.

As to the piece, I'll be thinking of you as I play on a short program
in the middle of a Mariachi festival this Sunday. BTW, really liked
the ending, the suddenly static swinging between two big chords.
Surprising, and nicely ambiguous.

Cheers,
Jon

Heya Chris, don't want to harsh your plans for this piece,
but doesn't the XV-3080 support 12-tone/octave tunings?
