Re: More stuff to listen to
Thanks so much, Mr Jayrope, for listening and for your comments. I'm really
glad you enjoyed it!
Regarding the miking, I didn't actually use a mic. It was all done using a
pickup attached to the bridge. I have tried recording with mics, but never
had much success with it, except in a particularly nice acoustic space,
which I rarely have access to these days. In fact, it's not really a
"proper" cello anyway, it's Knilling Portacello from the 1950's, which has a
small rectangular body. The nature of the instrument, combined with my very
unconventional (some would say non-existent) playing technique, at least
give a fairly recognisable sound, so I have decided to try and make a virtue
of it. I doubt it will ever sound very pretty.
Anyway, I have ben encouraged by the reactions to Scrapes, so yes, I will be
doing more.
Thanks again, and I hope all is well in Berlin.
Steve

Mr. Moyes,
i enjoy your complex-coloured cello space very much.
On an intermediate technical note it is great to hear cycles mostly not
appearing as loops
(although i find the miking could be improved to get your instrument more
body, maybe. Not needed to improve the sheer music, jthough.).
However, i enjoy your complex-coloured cello space very much. Food for
thought.
Thank you for complex brightening up a Berlin spring morning and: More of
this, please.
