Yep, that's right! A college project of mine, a few progressive elements thrown in there, a miniature canon, polymeters, harp, 19/16 fusion w**kery... the works man. Have a butchers

It's visionary and has a sense of humour instrumentally. I love it and I think it's great! You should do an entrie concept cd of material like this. I'm really impressed!  It's a very proggy kind of theme. A wonderful theme to a storyline or as I said before, concept album, all instrumental, some pieces reminiscent of others, etc. It's cheerful and bizzare. Great work!

Not big on concept albums, but I definitely plan to make an entire album of this stuff. Thanks for the complements dude I'm hoping you got the musical pun after the canon section?

how much of that is "real" instrumentation and how much is synth / programmed?

the introductory bassline and it's recapuitulations are live instrumentation (courtesy of my friend at college). the rest of it is all steptime MIDI input.. It was merely as a composition project

i thought that it sounded MIDI-ish (not that thats a bad thing at all) I especially loved the later bit with the more intense drums it reminded me more than a bit of Hard Normal Daddy era Squarepusher. Wich for me is a huge compliment!!! Big smile

Thankyou and I should think it's a compliment, considering HND is Squarepusher's finest album since his debut
