live @ Dunn Bros. in Keller, Tx. 1/29/10
Took me awhile to get my legs here, as evidenced by the sloppy playing. The bulk of this is the tune "Blue Hour".
Our sun is in a long, cool, quiet period right now. But average ocean temps are the highest ever, and polar ice and glaciers are melting at an alarming rate. Something is going on here.
Opened for Hentai Improvising Orchestra at 1919 Hemphill in Fort Worth. A 26 minute piece, I had to edit it down to this because of some nasty noise spikes on the louder bits. So whats left is a very sleepy piece.
An octave pedal would be fun to play with on the keys too. I have used a wah wah and distortion pedal on some of my songs. You can have two instruments hooked up to this at the same time? O man..the possibilities.. Great work.

this reminds me of an episode of the Simpson's where there was a chili cook-off and Homer had the hottest chili available at the festival. Then, Homer went into an alternate world and a coyote was talking to him, asking him to find his soul mate. The atmosphere Homer found himself in must have sounded something like this.
Nice work guy.
another one from RPM'13. I spent more than a few days working on a bunch of percussion tracks for this, only to leave them out of the final edit. Which this is not. Will upload a final version soon, but probably not before March 1st so I think…
This tune was created using two tracks of guitar I had recorded and then "mashed" together in Sony Acid :) I used this for the soundtrack for the video submitted to the 3rd Annual Sound-In Film Festival http://sound-in.org

billy boy where did you go
sittin in a pile of snow
come on down its gettin cold
for the time is getting old
well we made our way to the old wigwam
frozen lake and wind was calm
standing bow did strike a deer
to feed the tribe…
January challenge songwriting fun...
WATER UNDER WATER
So near the surface
So near the end
So near the purpose
Time and again
Just barely breathing
I’ll need you when
I’m floating in the water under water
Holding on loosely
Without letting…
Found a interesting sounding indian instrument via the computer world and strummed out chords on my lil midi guitar. Added some percussion, strings and a flute.
More ambient experimentation with my fretless guitar and Roland GR20. This time I used some sounds from the magnetic pickups as well as the midi pickup. Kind of a cheesy synth patch I know, but it was working for me!
Garn/Landry (And I barely deserve any credit for this one at all)
A while back, Jim recorded a rough version of this song, and upon listening to it, I was thrown back to a day from my youth. While vacationing in Vermont, a small twister throwing…
I got a new amplifier and instead of doing what I should have been doing I did this. It gets a little crazy in the middle and its microtonal so the vocals are gonna sound out - but I enjoyed it. Yeah, those be drum loops. 15 notes per octave.

Enchanting... :)
Gorgeous interplay between guitar and flute! VERY ethereal.
I'm trying to give this one a listen but nothing seems to be playing for me right now. I'll try again later. I'm sure it's great.
Very cool. Lovely tones!
Love those reverse effects! Cool stuff!
wild tune.
Wish I'd been there. This is great man! Love the way it comes together after about the 6 minute mark. This is a lovely start to my day
Hey Thanks,Catching Up After The Holidays,Hope You Have A Creative New Year!
How did I miss this? Wow - what a track! w;-)
Love it. This is serious business.
And so here's the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2YbhVTbsPk
Love this one, man. Note to self, improve my recording technique so that sound at least half this good...
Great sounds...
Now, I'm going to start experimenting with my Octave pedal. thanks guy. keep up the good work.
Don't wait for an excuse! Love this!
Sweet and sour stuff.
Use that excuse more often! Great track! w;-)
Man, I love leaving your stuff playing as I just sit back and listen. The diversity of guitar players on here is lotsa fun.

You have to imagine a voluptuous lass, belly dancing with a sword balanced on her head for this one, because that's what happened.
@Kirk: Haha!
Nice, pulsing mystery.
Great album! I like how you never really know where it's going!
Yah!
Yes Kirk, I've been on a dub jag, so thought I'd give it a whirl. The weirdness at the end is a mangled patch on the Animoog iphone app. Thanks.

Great song,story, mood,& instrumentation
These improvs are great!
Very cool, gonna be a good rpm for you if this is an indication. I can hear some atmospheric guitarplay under this..
Cool!
I'm envisioning buxom bellydancers. I like this.
Love this new sonic direction you've taken. Keep on!
Somehow I missed this, musta been asleep. Thanks to Reef for pulling my coat.. this is great great!
This is really beautiful!
I enjoyed these sounds.
Great groove and good nebula to look at thru a telescope!
Wild stuff Chris!
No Terry it's all guitar! Looped, delayed and stretched..
Don't let the length scare you, shades of Fleet Foxes and Floyd here, and other interesting textures, like the oboe. Dig it.
