Left here smilin' but you came back mean
Ain't no need to tell me, I know where you've been
Ya tell me you love me, an' you really care
an' if you just had some more, you'd be happy to share
You came back wantin' once you'd lost in all…

This started as I was finishing off the comment to "I Promise" and I was grabbed immediately by the Didgeriedoo like sound ....which ,hey I presume is a didgeridoo ?
I have one of those which I can drone ,but I am buggered if I can get the hang of circular breathing....hey the production on this is excellent at about 05:00 the tinklesa and then the hand drums (sorry I am shite when it comes to id'ing various ethnic and "primitive" drums)The talking in the background really works quite well.Ah there they go ,clearing off ...and in comes another...the background chirping at the transition and then a bit more reminds me of living in Singapore and the variety of night time noises that serensded you to sleep....or frigging well kept you awake depending on the time of year and how loud they were !
Ar these your percussion sounds...you must sharethe same playroom as Norm ....cool beats and rhythms .....At ten minutes I have hit the download button this is a definite keeper......this is almost soporiphic,and I mean that in a good way at about 12:00 plus i am almost more chilled than I have been for a little while ....nearly nodding off....nice little rhythm and echo set up going on here....we seem to be drawing to the end of this nocturnal journey with the inclusion of some synth swoops and swirls....sunrise ..dawn ..? and a fade ...excellent.
Most fun and enjoyed....sorry about tye blow by blow commenting but I got a little caught up in the moment .See Ya Later

I seem not to have got the hang of replying to comments...so I will tag my answer to your question re "Jumbled Layer"..all instruments were Weltmeister Stella 60 bass Ackordeen I only picked that up in September so am not very good with it yet...Squier Strat,Vintage 6 string Banjo (which is a nightmare to keep in tune ) and triangle played on the yammy keyboard...the only "fake" instrument.....as I type this out in my single simple fingered way I been listening to" I Promise"....very soothing and restful....some really nice improv going on ...the guitar fiddle has a smooth and mellow voice...great stuff......

This one is for all of you intrepid audio explorers out there: our latest experimental improv featuring Treefrog on electrified cigar box & washboard... Definitely not for the faint of heart!

Nicely done sirrah...now I remember why it is that I came back by here again ....the juxtaposition of the bass drum with the jazzy high tones are spot on and make an atmospheric blend....that guitar is how I like it...understated ,simpl sounding single notes strung out to their extremeties....NOT a simple technique....great first tune to come back to...
Cheers Jarvoid
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!*

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.
Until Then (Shine…
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
Very cool....nice feel and ambiance to it
The tones and sub bass kick butt on my 800 watt studio monitors, cool.
I really like this! Very pretty.
Cool. I missed this, thanks Djork.
Really excellent stuff and i only have my iphone with no headphones to listen on right now :)
Damn nice! Love that guitar. Thanks for listening man and have a good Christmas yourself!
Good beat....nice feel
This is darned good too !!

Nice improv man!
Ah, nice. Simple, but it takes me places.
Beautiful tone. I could listen all night.
My gosh, you guys are the ad lib kings! Magical guitar tone. Love the brooding percussion also.
Hey, tha,nks for listening! Great song; haunting, and in the beginning it has a bit of a Tool feel.
I like it! I gotta get me an electric cigar box!
smoother than babies bottom........
I love the floating feel this has.
Cheers, Jarvoid!

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!
