While Thomas Gaudynski's midi-bagpipe may be a neat acoustic way to control his digital synthesizer, he does not put it to much compositional use. Instead, he flits around making noises -- some interesting, some not.

All abstract/improvised.
No FCCs.

1. High-pitched noise, jumbled and nonsensical, like the wiping sounds when you clean glass.
2. Scales, drips and a soft whine.
3. Light electronic grumbling.
*4. Bird-like chirping, more wiping sounds.
5. Helicopter noises plus acoustics -- like a kid left alone with a guitar.
