Jeff Novotny JAZZPRJKT - Cygnus X-1

A bit about this new jazz-rock fusion release: believe it or not, it started as a recomposition of RHCP's "Breaking the Girl," but the only trace of this still extant is the guitar part over the pedal tone at the beginning. Some use is made of microtonality, especially in the synthesizer parts. The overall theme could be described as creepy radio transmissions in space, so sound effects play a large role in the piece. Some of these sounds are actual radio transmissions; others were created by sound designers. The title refers to the name of the black hole thought to be at the center of the Milky Way. Bet you can't predict how it's going to end! I welcome your feedback.
