This is an experiment in stacking real time delay/looped tracks that had no preconceived connections... all overdubs were done without listening to previously recorded tracks. I hear some very interesting synchronizations.... You?

Well, howdy there folks! There is now a full-band incarnation of Cave Street, gigging here in middle Tennessee since November of 2022. It would be swell if you could follow us at: http://facebook.com/cavestreet

Like A Wave
--
If you make yourself a mule
someone's gonna ride you
this I know
Like a breeze moves through the air
or a wave upon the water
is how I go
When you can freely give
of all that you can hold
you can know no more…
(RPM 2011) For obvious reasons, many RPM albums make use of improvisational sound collages. ;-) This is the first of three that divide the record into sections. You may or may not hear the connections in the lyrics, but it actually does make…

2) Use attraction, alignment and avoidance and extended this with a number of traits.
Some days I'm the preacher with my head up in a cloud

But some days I'm the creature who just arrived from Mars
And some days I'm the futurist who drives electric cars
Some days I'm the…
Thanks for the spins & comments, y'all.
@Dweeb, this is an old track from 2020. I tried multiple takes of this song.... not sure if this version was a vocal overdub or not, I'd have to find the old master tracks to figure it out. I found this on my old laptop when cleaning up desktop files the other night. I wrote/recorded this in April of 2020, not long after John Prine passed away. I guess it was kind of my tribute to him.

We are okay to go. As our spirits we are sending ourselves on missions never ending, we are okay to go, we are okay to go. Rainbow colors flashing, astral waters splashing, canopy projected, our spirits are protected, we are okay to go, we are…
On a cold and lonely trip through hyperspace, our protagonist wonders whether he'll ever see the sunrise on Ganymede again. (All sounds produced acoustically!)
If you ever get back to Ganymede, be sure to stop & look at the Ganymede Model Train Museum, which is actually in a structure about the size of a British police booth, except it's magenta with titanium highlights.
The museum is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside. Say hi to Wowbagger the Infinitely Prolonged if you do happen to bump into him, jolly well.

This is a piece in a microtonal tuning - but sounds very much like pentatonic in "normal" 12 equal tuning to my ears. But I work in microtonal tunings all the time and may be biased.
How "in tune" does this sound to you?
I'm digging the peaks & valleys in this one, it really has an epic feel for a four minute piece... I like the ending, but I must admit I half expected you to add "...or did they?" at the last second!
She hangs a little garden
so everyone can fit in her yard
when it's time to take tea
fills it up when they're walking about
they really knew how to twist and shout
and they're always going back that way again

This is a solid little tune, catchy as can be with several unexpected twists. Would love to be able to read along with all of the lyrics - please post 'em!
Started out be an innocent little jazzy study in quartal harmony, but the DL4 was still in my signal path and things went downhill from there! Another done with my beloved '58 Stratotone
No im not happy and no im not sad, no im not good but i know im not bad. No i wont go there, but no i wont stay, no im not straight but no im not gay, no need to tell me i know im not right, no happy endings and no end in sight. I got no way of…

This is a “cross-over” pattern. Cross-over patterns are a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with different numbers of beats/measure are played at the same tempo: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms have measures…

this is based on an improve from back in jan 75, then guitarist - chris layed this riff out and i never forgot it. it was the first time i was in a band as a bassist. the rest of the riffs are mine and everything else disastrous done in this song…
Wow, psychedelic! I dig the stereo vocals, but I'd really like to hear all the vocals panned dead center... very cool track reminiscent of B.O.C. *Rock On!*
This is a remix of an improvised track I did for our first RPM album. For this new mix, I got rid of the vocals & added a most excellent electric guitar part by our good friend, Chris Mitchell. He listened to the track just once and proceeded…
Nice piece! I really like the tension the guitar brings in at about 2 minutes... and again at about 3 1/2 min. Also cool how you break it all down at the end.
The first of 4 tunes coming your way with
the spotlight on my friend "Michael Thomas of Cave Street"

This one is my favorite and chills me every time I hear it.
It never, ever, gets old.

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone for all the nice comments, and thanks again to my friend Paul for giving me such great tunes to work with! It looks like I'll soon have internet & *my very own* computer at home again soon & will be able to get back to listening to all you fine & creative musicians! I have been missing it greatly!!
Comments on Cave Street's stuff
tumbling shifts like boulders on a mountain, bold
Yes, Jason Deptula on cello!
Good to hear you back at it good to hear your gigging to
Good to hear you again. Is that a cello?
Rock on!
Ah this is mesmerising. Lovely. It's good to know you're still making music. I'm playing catch up here. Been away in the woods
sounds like a shifty gambler shuffling cards in the corner of a dirty bar. like a slightly subdued tom waits.
Tripping music. Love it!

So great. Wow, lovely lyrics and melody too.
Great Folk flavored song and lyrics. It's nice to hear this kind of music. We need more of it.
Exceptional lyrics!!! Love this arrangement- spare and supportive of your raspy warm vocals
Great chorus. Is this performed "live"?
You a bad man. Duderino.

Reminiscent of Waters & Gilmour - listening to it in the hot springs made the whole experience seem impossibly sublime.
The Velveteen Sheen & the Velveteen Shine
Very cool sounds. Like it!
So flabbergasting that my gasts are all flabbered out!
I love long-play tracks like this that just go in all sorts of unexpected directions.

This one had the wife giggling appropriately as it went on... :-D
I hear bits where it's obviously not the "standard" tuning we've been trained to hear as "right" but this piece is quite beautiful to my ears!

Have I told you lately that I love this little piece of spontaneous composition?
excellent tune! love the subtleties of the arrangement, backing vox, acoustic lead guitar, nicely done!
Diggin it! Poi Dog Pondering meets Bob Dylan then they both get schooled by Alex Moody! :-)
excellent
A great vocal and great harp on this oh so timely recording. Thank you my friend for sharing this very important music!
... I'm digging into this space you have carved in time...
Love It!!!
nice one

most excellent!
Chris, I love your stuff. It's most elevating, to say the very least. Thank you.
Cheers, Jarvoid!
I dig this riff and the different synth textures. I haven't heard all your stuff yet, but this one is my favorite so far!
nice one!
