Contrasts

This is the first composition I made with the Commodore Amiga and the program DMCS in December 1989. Before this I recorded a few pieces with the program Sonix, but these are not worth to be mentioned. A large part of these compositions is based on improvisation, while the computer is just used for the accompaniment. In 'Contrasts', the computer is used as a sound source itself and also to send MIDI-signals to the Bit 99. The piece is mostly composed, with a few spots for improvisation on the Bit and Roland synthesizers. It's a nice piece, with my characteristic soloing.

Recorded:

21/1/'90

Instruments used for the recording:

Bit 99, Commodore Amiga, Roland system-100 model 101
