Dearly Beloved/Summertime is John Coletrane's free jazz song from Sun Ship done in the style of a raga.

It's also important to note that this was almost entirely improvised.

Distant Relative of Nihilism is done on a guitar prepared with a found piece of metal and tuned to a chord that I liked. Then I wrote out seventy five rhythms in class and progressed through them all while improvising the melodies.
What's a drone tuning?
