Wild cellist Corbin Keep's music is schizophrenic in scope: humour gives way to intense introspection about the nature of our existence before jumping into a tune that drives like a train with a choo-choo beat. It’s often cinematic, and sometimes strange. Unlike other experimental cellists, Keep doesn’t rely on any external effects or electronic devices for the strange noises that he coaxes from his instrument. With the exception of his vocal renditions, everything at his solo shows—from the sound of waves crashing on a beach to the seagulls flying overhead—is generated entirely on an acoustic cello.

This piece is a track that was featured in his "Improv Of the Month" series - this one from June of `04.
