I really hope everyone here doesn't mind me talking about this kind of stuff :/ lol
Im hearing a track by Steve Reich called Piano phase...and after hearing his Violin Phase peice Im really finding it hard to believe someone could be playing this. Does he really play this kind of stuff live or is it computer generated? I mean to make so many changes with so little keys going so fast, you know the kind of concentration needed not to screw it up? Especially when the peice is like 15-18 minutes long? That's utterly beyond human!

I know that. But for this kind of music. Im beginning to think no human on earth could possibly play something like this for so long! Your concentration factor would have to be beyond human.

They'd have to go into a 'zone' and totally prepare themselves mentally for something like this. Anything blocking their thinking when playing will screw them up

Yes I have been dling this stuff all day. I have clapping song, some of drumming / marimba. I have piano and violin phase pieces and his proverb peice with human voices (choir music) which sounds like its being phased. I have a track call come out that, to me sounds like he's experimenting with sound waves with a simple voice clip "come out to show them". This is repeated and gets more and more complex with echos and all that stuff. Very cool.
