Where are your ears ?

Having listened to a lot of alt tuning tracks on mp3, I must say I
like a few (guitar ones), but some were perceived as crap !

Where are your ears, how far can you stretch them in sanity ;)

Well, Guiseppi, you aren't the first one to say as much, but the
funny thing is that for most of the writers the crap they were
talking about were different pieces every time!

The community here is over 500 members, the vast majority of which do
not participate. Even within the relatively small sampling, there is
a pretty wide variety of both styles and ... abilities. If nothing
else, the Tuning Punks site on mp3.com (which is what I believe you
are referring to) shows some of that variety.

You might also want to drop in to Making Microtonal Music -

/makemicromusic

It's a splinter list of people who wanted to talk a little more about
the post-theoretical aspects of tuning, i.e. trying to create some
music with the resources. They can point you to some music that
*isn't* represented on the Tuning Punks page, though a number of
those people are in MMM as well.

Hey, mine are on two sides of my head, just like you! As for sanity,
were is that a prerequisite to be musical??? :)

Guiseppi!
I personally find MP3's rather thin and unengaging, always somehow falling short of really
moving me even though i have recognized some real talents from which i ask for better versions.
At least one would hope you might be generous to note that which you liked.

That I could. (hey, I'm enebriated)

I like Pat Pagano's bitties (sci-fi atmospheric)
Jay Williams
A guitar picking track (wasn't there a minute ago)

Come to think of it, I like them all, now I'm drunk ;)
