Dear Jacky,

Good work. What an astonishing idea! I would love to hear something in
this scale. It's said that Schumann (the composer) went mad at the end
of his life because of tones that were becoming increasingly loud in his
mind. Also, I believe that Paul Winter, in the process of arranging
pieces to the accompaniment of birdsong, concluded that most birds sing
in B or B minor.

Peace,
Kurt

Mr. Jacky,

What great stuff (Drum-n-Bass)! I hope everyone here listens to this
and learns, because (stylisms aside) you've got a whole lot of
wonderful sound crafting, intonational stuff, rhythmic interest and
especially the final presentation: great mixing, with lots of
attention to placement of instruments, etc.

And that from an .mp3 file. Any interest in explaining, in a brief
manner, the tools you used for this example?

Feh to the people with stock patches. You're it!

Cheers,
Jon

Way cool, brother Jacky!

This is exactly the kind of thing I was imagining when I was
introduced to "Drums and Bass" music back in December in Philly!

I'm diggin' those Schumann-resonance tritones!!

Nice... sounds a little "tritoney"... but that may be just a 12-tET
"distorted" reaction...
