Although the piece is not minimalist, it's influenced by minimalism. The instrumentation is two electric guitars, with a slight overdrive, and one electric bass.

You should check out mine, and I will be sure to check out yours. I think it is a good move for classical to start incorporating new timbres, but certainly not neglecting traditional instruments.

Sounds like a ringtone. I'm not sure if I like it. It's interesting, though, and has merit.

lol, well, in my defence, with the technique I'm using, I don't control the "melodies" which begin to form through the interaction of the different voices. The only melody which I "control" is the first one, in the lydian mode of F, and using all the 7 notes of the scale.
interesting stuff. i liked the progression!
