Hey Chris! Did you get my comments earlier? I think I stuck them on your CD Baby website guestbook. Anyway it's a cool CD! Your tastes are not as "ultra conservative" as James Tenney says they are--what a thing to say to a student!

Hey Chris! Thanks again for sending me your CD. Sorry it's taken me so long to write you back. I'm definitely intrigued by your sound....an eclectic mix of so many things all wrapped up into one. It's refreshing to hear music again which his totally new and innovative. All the best.

Hi Chris!
Thank you so much for the CD! I can't believe what an incredible job you did. The creative timing for the rhythms, sounds and voices is truely amazing! I couldn't begin to try to orchestrate and weave the many sounds and textures. You should be very proud of yourself - have you tried to send it to any movie producers? Who knows what could come out of it!? Well, the only bummer, is that you didn't autograph it! When you're famous, don't forget the little people! GREAT JOB!
Stay in touch, and thank you again for sending me a CD!
Debbie

Hey Chris, the cd is great! Thank you so much for sending me a copy. It's nice to see you exploring other styles of music. I love the way you combined different sounds and textures.

Very esoteric and sublimely space. Keep up the journey!

An always arresting, intrtiguing sound landscape. There is the feeling of a suspenseful journey or evolution/crash. While the soundscape supports the story imputed to it, it could as well support the listener's own choice of journey.

Just got the CD - looking forward to checking it out. I'm sure it's great!

Thanks for the CD, Chris. And again, my congratulations on your accomplishment!

Obviously, you gave the theme a lot of thought, judging by the volume of music, extensive notes, and artwork. I appreciated the sound palette, performance skills, and engineering.

As far as the narrative is concerned, the music, I feel, needs a stronger structure: clearer patterns and shorter tracks. Clearer patterns mean more detectible motivic/thematic connections and an instrumentation strategy based on pure timbres, one or two unique ones per track.

It seems that you are trying to create programmatic music using means more appropriate for ambient one. A hard task. I cannot remember a convincing example of such sort. The opposite, however, is quite possible: think of numerous Baroque programmatic compositions--no furniture store would say

My brain cells are stimulated in new and unusual ways by these bells. Chris, I'm trippin'! (I imagine this must be what it feels like.) Yet again, you broaden my horizons. Matt

I played some the samples and was too frightened to click the STOP button. Nice job Chris et al! By the way, I have several million dollars available in an account in Upper Volta to invest in your music, if you would just e-mail me your checking account number...

Chris, this is awesome. Thanks for sharing - quite the line-up of talent you've got here - yourself included! It's prefect rainy afternoon music. :)

It all looks wonderful (CD, website and presentation), and the explanation to the CD is enlightening and helpful.

Congratulations Chris!

This is great music to zone out on while I create artwork, thanks dude!
