Featuring Mark Hubbard & Duma, on didj & percussion respectively, this one begins as the most traditionally structured piece on the album. But don't get used to it, it doesn't last long... just enough to ease you into the formlessness…
All first take improvisations. 8 tracks of madness for your enjoyment. Ear goggles will put you inside this piece. Not recommended for the faint of heart!
Recorded between 9AM - 7PM on the 26th of February.
Nice. The intro brings back memories. I don't know what you created there by combining those digital and organic elements, but I like it.
It's an unsettling atmosphere and makes you think.

nice for reading to so far. 5:30 in. relaxing. 10:30 in now . something dark is lurking. mysterious. like the cool sounding "sequencer" pink floydy stuff.

@kavin. - lol, that's just it: I did not persevere --- *I gave up!* :-)
The 'real' songs will be coming along before too long... but unfortunately they are too late to count for RPM...
These were just my glimpses into formlessness... but you know how it is... the longer you look into it, the more you realize there are layers of order within the chaos.
I'm just tryin' to surf the chaos.
...or at least stay afloat!

Loving the percussion of the first 2 mins. From then on, it felt like being inside an erupting volcano, until the end when it just shot from ear to ear. Most clever indeed.

Here's another little something that I somehow got sidetracked on posting.... Thanks for the jams Norm! One of these days I'll bounce something fresh your way....
A "remix" I did a while back that got lost in the shuffle. The original was for our 2010 RPM album "Onion Bell" and can be found here: http://alonetone.com/cavestreet/playlists/onion-bell

At one point, I had a version recorded with much better guitar -- at least I thought I did -- but I can't find it now...
Another one of those tunes that kept growing after the demo was laid down, this song now has twice as many verses as you…
I did this weeks ago & then found it again last night as I was archiving old files. This is one of those one-off improv sessions... I recorded the rhythm guitar in one pass, then one "lead" pass and then one vocal pass, and done. Even the…

I just saw a comment below that mentioned EARTH... I was thinking similar thought moments before I saw that comment... not meant to be a comparison, just noting that you are in very good company...
10 minutes in... other influences have entered the field... darkness headed towards becoming absolute.... very well done indeed, this is entering my pool of favorites... soon to be downloaded & enshrined on a shiny disc for late night ear goggle exploration... thanks for sharing! now 12 minutes in ... a promise of dawn to come...
5 + minutes in & I am enjoying this immensely! Starting to edge toward darkness now... 6 min... this seems to have far more thought put into it than my recent RPM soundscapes... this is extremely well done! ...still decending... 7 minutes in...
*Pilón* reveals a Cuban pattern, traditionally played on Timbales, but in this case on Jr. Congas & Congas (with gated reverberation and flanger effect). The rhythm of Pilón is based on the motions of pounding sugar cane.

I purchased a new M-Audio midi keyboard during RPM. The software alone was worth the $100.
There was no chance I was wasting any time during RPM with a learning process.
Today, I got the opportunity to install the software and plug it in. This…
Hey Geas, you know my boy Zack is a rapper, right? It's nerd rap apparently... not sure what all that entails (super heroes & sci-fi at least) but you might wanna hit him up. This one sounds like it could be Pirate Rap. I can hear a chorus of "Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho!" at the end!
This is my favorite one so far! The guitar echo sounds like one of the tracks I've been working on myself... This is one of your tracks that starts inspiring words in my head as soon as I hear it!

Lyrics:
River run away with me
I got my paddle in my hand
Take me far away from here
Take me to the sea
Take me somewhere I don’t know
Take me where the water goes
Start out fast, then go slow
Closer to the…
Wow, I was already thinking what a special song this is & then then that flute solo just sealed it! Sure would love to hear an "extended mix" with more of that! I like where everything sits in the stereo field, this is a nice spacious mix...
Comments on Cave Street's stuff
Great! I was missing the long prog tracks till I got here, heh.
Digging this musical exploration of yours. Very nice!

just put on the surround system. much better!

Very Tao te Ching Michael,in surrendering you win the struggle.

8 minutes in and digging this musical stream of consciousness! Glad you persevered!
whoa...i've been transformed to a green slimy smoldering puddle on a chair..nice one
Nice!

i think i'm going to have to try this in headphones this weekend! 7:50 in....pretty crazy...
So far, trippy, and good......
About time you posted this gem! Dig that out-of-sight bass/flute hanging in 7/8.
Great remix, love the DnB version.
Yes! Love the flute, amazing work gents!! Very nice jazzy bass work.
Oh cool, Michael. Great bass!
Super rhythm and wonderfully subtle music.
wish i have your deep voice..this one brings me back in time..listening to 70's album..i love it
Moody and clean, I like it

I like this song, thanks for sharing your music.

Psychedelic!
This is a nice track... are you doing RPM this year?
I agree with Keith: inspired/humbled! As always, thank you for so freely sharing your beautiful music, kavin..
Let me know if you want me to send these to MC Freakin'Genius (aka Zack)

This one reminds me of Art of Love... I like the echoes & the low bass hits.
It's like Benny Hill goes western! Fun track!! This needs some seriously twisted lyrics! :-D
