Description

A new and improved version of my second GB tune "flute clatter"...this one is structured a lot like my "organ noodle soup". I started with a simple nonsense melody line, laid down with the mouse-over keyboard, and then built the song around that. This version is faster, with better percussion (some software instruments, some manipulated/effected loops), and a lively flute solo (samples from a Bulgarian tune called "Lovchantka Ruchenitsa") which keeps cutting in and eventually lets loose...

	good soundtrack material I love how this progresses. It's like a narrative to a foot chase through chinatown. Check out my latest song called From Nothing

	Don't you hate... ...the ones who can't appreciate improvization? Hopefully the low marks will be removed. West Side Story meets Stun Nutz! I like your work here. Reminds me to "let go" sometimes.

	Don't you hate... I can't stand those people who give bomb scores and don't even comment as to why. It's usully done to good inventive tracks too. My guess is that they think music that isn't to their personal taste can't still be well done and be worthy of some objective praise. Check out my latest song called From Nothing

	aw, shucks. Thanks for sticking up for me guys! Sniff sniff...mean old low scoring bully! Naw...I know tracks like these polarize people. Hell, the only person in my immediate family that likes my little sound experiments is my five-year-old son... I'm used to it! Check out my latest song called Gossamer dissected

	Don't you hate... Hmm...it looks like the low marks WERE removed. How does that happen? Check out my latest song called Gossamer dissected

Dirty!
Don't know why I used "Dirty" as a title. I actually hate the
title thing: I always feel forced to do it. I wish we didn't
have to "title" our comments.

Hey this piece starts out like so many of my fart-around
pieces that I never really get anywhere on. But then you
get somewhere with it. Love the bickering flute motifs.
And the Bulgarian thing...where's you find that? Fun little
piece. Could be longer, and more chaotic. I can take it!

	Dirty! Actually, you should have heard the original "flute clatter"... it was a pretty one-dimensional fart-around piece. Ask _nderscore...he commented on it. Anyway, I'm glad you think this one actually "went somewhere"! That's what I was hoping for... Check out my latest song called Gossamer dissected

	Dirty! Hey, pooey, if you want to hear something more chaotic, check out my "btmbdmf" tune...it really pushes the boundaries of what's considered listenable! ha! Also...if anyone else is interested in hearing "Itchy Richie", send me an e-mail and I can send it to you... Check out my latest song called Gossamer dissected

	clatter yeah-so where did that last flute song go anyway? this is nice & inventive, made me feel like doing a jig (for a few secs at least). great mix of sounds & production-very minimal, but effective tune. DL'd Check out my latest song called glyd

	great piece I'm a little slow. How did you sample the Bulgarian flute tune? Check out my latest song called Keep Looking for Jesus (MJRF)

great piece
I got the Bulgarian flute tune off a CD. I imported it into iTunes as an
mp3, opened GarageBand, created a new basic track, and then simply
dragged the mp3 file from iTunes to the new track I created in
GarageBand. GarageBand takes a few seconds to convert the mp3 to an
aif file and then it shows up...looking like one long "loop". Next, I used
the split command to cut out sections that I wanted and deleted the rest.
That's how I got my "samples". I hope that makes sense.

	great piece Thanks for the explanation. Do you know how some people are right-brained, and others left? Maybe I should try it myself, and then--satori! Maybe... Check out my latest song called Keep Looking for Jesus (MJRF)

	Has a celtic feel somehow This is pretty fun to listen to. I could imagine a drunk Irishman dancing a jig to this tune! Check out my latest song called All Who Are Thirsty

	Bizarre Crazy little Irish flavor in that one spot! For some reason, I could see this accompanying some kind of crqazy animation, like those one's that really freak you out.... in a good way! Inspired. Check out my latest song called With You

	that reminds me of.... nothing at all. very cool un-song. thank you for not putting a dance beat in it. it makes me want to chase squirrels in the forest. i think i will. 9-8-9-9 Check out my latest song called andy (remix)

	Yummy flutes Wow, what a fascinating effect all those flutes make. It's a really original piece and sounds great. The louder section didn't work so well for me but I love the frenetic twiddling in the rest of it. Freestyle melodic chaos! Check out my latest song called Amongst The Colours (w/ Luna Trick)

	Twiddling on Flutes caught in a trap, trying to escape, screaming, oh the humanity/flutanity! and, as we all may someday do, the resignation, giving in, no gnawing off of the mouthpiece to slink away half-a-flute... just resignation, rationalized twiddling as life continues on, us deciding not to notice we're still caught in the trap... Check out my latest song called The Androgyne

	an accurate description: odd. interesting. aptly named. all over the place. in a good way. Check out my latest song called interesting number paradox
