Experimental usage of vintage spring reverbs on a mellow piano. Uneasy.

To Go Straight
01/06/09 21:24
After over a week of silence, improvisations are back. Just like they sung, “the times, they are a-changing”. And indeed, some great stuff is ahead, stay tuned.
As for the improvisation itself, today’s piece is quite technical, and at the same time, a breath of fresh air. Try and listen.

Note: You might want to look at the archive of older entries where all improvisations for May are still being kept.

Another approach to the lullaby subject, somewhat different than the first two.

Conspiracy Prophecy Paranoia

I’m amazed how many people I encounter lately who are avid believers of the worst kinds of pseudoscience and superstition possible.

Somewhat a continuation of the first lullaby, this time on traditional grand piano.

These people, seemingly so pure in their intentions and so naive in their actions... They know exactly what they’re doing. Emotional blackmail wizards.

Ants in the Rain
26/04/09 20:25
I was visiting my parents this weekend and I had some time to experiment with an old upright piano of theirs. I used to practise on it while studying but it’s been long since I did anything in particular with it. I took it apart and recorded some experimental tunes using non-standard techniques of performance.
This one is an excerpt of a recording where I was experimenting with plucking the strings. It’s rather chaotic in ways of the rhythm but still I find it quite interesting and refreshing. Can’t do this on my Yamaha ;-)

Electric Fridays #7: On The Brink of a Breakdown
24/04/09 13:07
Today’s episode of Electric Fridays focuses on a couple of very sad stories that happen to my friends right now. Financial problems, severe health issues, relationship dramas... Strange coincidence, especially at this seemingly happy time of the year.
Improvisation recorded at 288 BPM, in 5/4.

Contrast Means More Than Absolute Brightness (Phase 1)
11/04/09 17:49
Today’s piece is the first phase of one of the more experimental and heavy Anomalies, recorded in 2007 as one behemoth 30 minute piece. It was later recut and divided in two parts. Here you can find the second phase.

Highway Disaster: Contemplation

Inspired by a lately experienced dangerous situation. This piece is very descriptive, try to picture the situation in your head while listening.

...with yourself, with your significant other, with life. B1 is also the leitmotif note of the piece. And so, DailyImprov.net enters its second month of existence...

Contrast Means More Than Absolute Brightness (Phase 2)
28/03/09 00:05
That’s right: no tune was published for Friday. This was the deadline for Steven Wilson’s Abandoner remix contest and I participated. The commitment really knocked me up and despite spending a couple of hours finding anything interesting, nothing came up. So, this marks the first hole in the DailyImprov.net calendar. Oh well...
Today’s piece is one of the more experimental and heavy Anomalies, recorded in 2007 as one behemoth 30 minute piece. It was later recut and divided in two parts. This is the second part, but it is presented here first, just as it appeared chronologically on the album.

A bitter-sweet tune with some metal spice. Let’s just hope this week will be more sweet than bitter, nonetheless. Recorded at 144 BPM.
