This was for the ending month Kvr contest, and it's very experimental and NOT exactly succesful, probably a bit confused arrangement and manical composition made it unpopular. I post it here to get some more comment (hopefully), just click on the picture.... Inspired by the Jaath from hell Zappa album   Cheers |

The trouble with Zappa is that he actually covered a HUGE range of styles, so though this probably matches some of his work i couldn't say which  It's very good, but just a bit too close to the edge for my tastes. |

Hm, very slow download here.... I can guess why it wasn't that popular... atonal is the right word I think ? You have to be musicaly open minded to appreciate this song. Still, I think it's good composition work  k |

L.R., The song is perfect as it is. Some of the instruments might be tweeked to sound "better", but to whose ears? The composition is exactly right for a Zappa mood. What is a "successful" song? My opinion is that Frank would fall absolutely flat with his entries in most website contests, a guaranteed "loser" every time. With that in mind, the placing you received in that contest means you nailed it. Nice going! Frank would be proud - have a cigar  , Oren. |

hey Laguna, I forgot I had an account over here,
your always listening to my misadventures so I had to login and listen
this has got great controlled mystery, makes perfect sense to me, I think it could carry on
dig the intro bassline and the drum track really fits aces
I know I'm a little late but, better than never, cause I dig this vibe
coolness

Ah, I love this piece. It has a sort of hysterical edge that I think is absolutely charming.  Really though, great piece. - Servetus(It finished and I wanted more!) |
