Very nice indeed, love the flute playing, took me 15 seconds to realize that it was a real flute. The trons sound very good too, but my  ears are pretty substandard I can't always tell the difference between a real tron and samples or sometimes a tron and a string synth!


Anyway a very enjoyable piece

Anyone else been having problems uploading files? I've tried thrice, at separate times to upload this file which works fine elsewhere, and no luck, always unplayable when upload is done.

Any case, here then is a linky to the tune.

I'm a lot happier this time. If you backtrack to my music page you can also check out the previous version, which is no where near as splendiforous. Quick rundown of sounds...

Flute
M-Tron standing in for: MkII violins, cello, vibraphone, bass accordion, MkII trombone, bassoon.

I'm curious about this analysis of LTiA, that album means alot to me musically. I'd probably be able to understand the jibba-jabba, that's what I'm trained to do. I'm a bit wary, I often find that people doing this stuff go beyond a worthwhile understanding of the piece, whatever it is, and go on to how-many-not- quite-relevant- patterns- can-I-find- or-create?

They don't even bother with a disclaimer saying something like "Hey, I'm going well beyond what was relevant because that's how I get off, so yeah."
