"Hi Timothy,
I agree it is quite a challenge to listen to and nothing for each and every listener. For sure your metaphor is not wrong, as the music has some mechanical atmosphere around it.
Thank you.

"Hi Dane,
great comment as always, thank you for the helpful reference to Andriessen and Hoketus. Yes I agree, the time difference between horn and cello is very significant. It is certainly nothing you can listen to all the time. But monotonous it…"
"Hello Nigel,
you say it yourself: "I really like the emptiness of just the piano" - I think with strings, the piece would sound very different,
most importantly, the emptiness would go away. There is probably no good or bad about this, it…"
"Dane- "If it seems monotonous to some it's probably because they aren't accustomed to the style. To me it was fine - not something I'd listen to every day but it's there if needed, as is my small Andriessen/ Nyman…"
"Stamina??
Ok, vitamin pills at the ready and Commando training 50 push-ups just to test if I was up for it! but I listened to it late last night, totally flaked out by the heat so I was (let's get dramatic about it) just a vehicle through which…"

Hi,this is a very minimalistic piece that I would like to share. It is quite long so you need some stamina for listening. The idea is to produce a "constellation" of single sounds and to explore their relationships in time. Everything else (like motifs etc.) is omitted.Here is the link:https://musescore.com/user/32556702/scores/6290735See More

Thank you for posting.

"Hi Ramon,
in my opinion it is really classy music. I especially liked the creaking chair at the end of part one :) You seem to have quite heterogeneous parts but blend them together nicely. I must agree with Kjell that the end is a bit of a…"
"Instead of using Musescore, the video has now a scoring and was interpreted by a professional pianist.
Enjoy."
"Hi Gregorio,
it is very nice.
Best.

"Hi Disconnectica,
I agree with you, the sound is rather metallic sometimes. Though I must say all these technically generated piece are for me more or less a demo of how the piece might sound like - it is not a "real" performance. But it…"
"Hi Kurt,
wow. Impressive. Very fine image that really drew me into the video. The music is also good though I must say, perhaps it alone would not have kept me. It is rather the wonderful combination of image and music that makes your work…"
"Very good flow and energy, nice sound, though also a little bit conventional.
Thank you.
