Initial arrangement by kd with the help of mr korg.  Drums and a few keys by Pauly Paul.  Me on most of the rest of the keys.  Mr Korg still sitting there discretely on the bass and percussion.

Music For Bouncing Up And Down In Elevators

Straight out of the Ninjam online jamming software.  Four people, never met, never spoken (voice or online chat), can't see each other playing.  There's a metronome set to 150bpm with  drum kit leading in (could even be a live drummer I think). Everyone is playing four bars behind everyone else.  It's weird but it kind of works in a bit of a hit and miss way.

This tune is cool because you can hear the musicians negotiating what's going to happen and then making it happen entirely through the power of musical communication.  Remember nobody can even see each other, and online chat means you have to put your instrument down, so we didn't.

My playing is a little sloppy, but there's a pretty neat groove in there, and I have my moments, especially the end.

Sunday Morning Ceremony For The One

Two shepard tones one going up one down, panning across the stereo scene independently, pan rate determined by two separate LFOs.  Then all mashed into something slightly different again with a granular audio processor.  You have been warned.
