Hidden Symmetry Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 Hi David, I'm listening on laptop & can't hear any crackle. Lovely piece btw, nice way to start my day off. 1
PhonoBrainer Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 The only time I didn't hear a crackle was at 1:10! Of course, I was eating potato chips while I listened. To be serious- no crackle, cool violin, and I love the Sprouse sense of composition and meter, irregular yet completely accessible, beyond the rules. Well done! Cheers, -Tom 1
David Sprouse Posted October 24, 2020 Author Posted October 24, 2020 Thank you U2. I was trying to parody the music that pbs plays between stories and it ended up sounding ok, so I guess it's an unfunny parody.
mark skinner Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 David , that was great! I considered it pretty close to experimental. I put a kick drum in my head and couldn't keep up with the timing. I loved the relaxing tones and presentation , you are a Very talented composer and producer. Another all around fantastic job .. mark
bjornpdx Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 David, I like this one esp the violin starting around 0:35. Very good orchestration throughout. -Bjorn
Bajan Blue Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Hi David - great piece of music and no crackles for me as well Good job Nigel
Douglas Kirby Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 I enjoyed this David - nicely done. The orchestra sounded quite good to my ears. I didn't hear the crackling you referred to.
Kevin Walsh Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 Nice, I love the in-between bits on NPR as well. Looks like you messed up and made a really nice bit of music here. Mix and sound stage are both quite lovely.
Bapu Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 No crack here. No ganga here. No horse here either, All I heard was the backing track to a Jesse Screed song. Lurvely

daryl1968 Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 this is like a very unfunny parody. Seriously, it sounds great - all the sounds are really nicely mixed

Lynn Wilson Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 Outstanding! Excellent panning and a surprise ending. Eerily haunting which is perfect for this time of year and history. At this end, it's clear as a harp/bell.
Jesse Screed Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 David, what can I say, very nice. I am sorry to hear about your anhedonia. It seems like you are coping though, you're still creating music. I am praying for you to stay on an even keel so I can hear more in the future. 1

It's true jesse, I haven't experienced pleasure for more than 20 years. My greatest regret is not having a sense of humor. I can't find anything funny. Edited November 1, 2020 by David Sprouse 1

My greatest regret is not having a sense of humor. I can't find anything . well, the only thing I can tell you and you can choose to believe it or not you are a surrogate each of us is something most of us are in the box it is crowded in the box there is no deviation in the box the box is a safe place but everyone in the box wonders what it is like outside of the box "and the pale hordes flock to harlem for a dose of thunderbolt juice, knowing they can take the train home." In most of the monoculture, Carduus nutans is considered a noxious weed, but for those who see, it brings clearness to the heart so feeling joy is a construct. it is in the not feeling that we are purified of course "a fool be I." but you are a surrogate, and a good one at that. 1 1
