Haha! Pwnd by the phone company once again. I feel your pain. The chain saw solution caught me by surprise, but sounded effective.
It would probably be a very bad idea for you to ever collaborate with ReefWalker about this topic... he has a history of many phone problems as well.

Somebody should create an album of songs dealing with phone problems on AT - a recurring theme!
This is a rough mix of a track I did with the one & only Norm Harris. I've got some vocals in mind, but it may take some time to put it together, so meanwhile here's the instrumental version. Big thanks & major props to Norm…
In the morning, when we awoke, there was nothing. There were no ashes from the fires of the previous evening. The time for decisions was past. "Yes" was the answer to all questions; and none was the knowledge retained. Wisdom laughs at such folly…
you say i got no reason
to be here knockin' on your door
i guess ya had no reason
to think you might see me anymore
hey I got some news for you
yes i do
y'know i seen a lot
of different things
through these two eyes
i've heard…

Yes, RW's sitar works very well here. Nice! I confess that I don't know what a tenpura is, but then I thought a hurdy-gurdy had something to do with a busking monkey... now I realize its a wheel fiddle, which I've never come close to seeing or hearing.
I still want one of those things with the monkey hitting folks up for change in his little cup, whatever it's called.

yes! this is great - the two of you rock together - and Hurdy Gurdy!! Awesome!! If I may be so bold perhaps a recorder or flute - or best a shawm melody would work.

I'm at work & listening to this now... still not quite satisfied with the intonation of the hurdy-gurdy (I had to pitch shift the sample I found). Reefwalker has done an excellent remix which I will probably upload this evening provided he gives his permission.

The first of 4 tunes coming your way with
the spotlight on my friend "Michael Thomas of Cave Street"
http://alonetone.com/cavestreet
This one is my favorite and chills me every time I hear it.
It never, ever, gets old.
Until Then (Shine…
Thanks for the comment, I dig your stuff too.... reminds me of Explosions in the Sky, one of my favorite bands. Maybe I'll stick around for a while longer & check more of your stuff out.
Heres a collab with Wildgeas Music a beautiful bit of music hope i did it justice with the vocal............
Tomorrow (Lyrics)
I know the curse of the darkness is coming
those dark nights that will feed upon my soul
with no forward glance of tomorrow…
"The expression that there is nothing to express, nothing with which to express, nothing from which to express, no power to express, no desire to express, together with the obligation to express." (From Samuel Beckett, Three Dialogues, "Tal Coat")
man, words fail... *this is so free & swingin'*
the only way this could get better is to hear it played on real horns & strings.
I just can't click that favorite button enough!
Dead soldiers from the war (pick one) gather together for old times' sake, ideally at the local tavern in Sleepy Eye, Minnesota. Which may or may not put Sleepy Eye on the map ....
This is quite as inspirational as any late period Zappa or Fripp ProjeKCts.... very heady stuff... I don't even know why I'm writing.
*shutting up now*
(OK just read your profile.... awesome list of influences, I will definitely be checking out more of your stuff)
I'm trying to experiment with intentionally combining two different sounds. Since I seem to find this difficult I am starting with using a drone as one of the sounds taking my inspiration from the opening tracks of the Brian Eno & Jah Wobble…
Another one from my ambient crackpot series.
This features two instances of my new instrument the Novaphone 340 Imperial. A grand name for a grand instrument (Xylo just didn't do it justice).
The first Novaphone is playing three samples…
There's a good reason most of Dirty Dan and the Family Band's music features the guitar. It's because his keyboard and trumpet players don't know what they're doing.
I wrote this song as a class project for "Quantum Reality and the Spiritual Quest" at the U of A. My basic idea behind it was to try and relay the wave/particle duality of light through musical terms.
Mama Corn is popular with several distinct audience types. Fully capable of pleasing the most finicky traditional audience with favorites from Flatt & Scruggs, The Stanley Bros, and Bill Monroe, the band is also very popular with Americana…
Why is it that every 10th or so comment that I make seems to disappear into a black hole?? Though I guess it's somewhat appropriate in this case, since the awol comment I made was suggesting a new name for this song (per Kavin's suggestion --- though I'm not entirely sure this is a better name).
My vote: *Schwarzschild Surfin'*
Think about it....
I took a week off work to do some music, and what with the riots, and a huge alcoholic binge having massively negative effects on my hedmeds, I haven't felt an ounce of creativity/positivity. rather pure misery. so i didnt even bother trying Monday…
Comments on Cave Street's stuff
You guys are on fir here!!!!!! Great song.

That's something different for you. Very cool track man!
Like it.
A little strange guys... strangely compelling. ;)
love the drone
Nice percussion!
reminds me of "nothing" off Bill Laswells city of light.... which is a good thing
Cool! Great guitar tones!
BEAUTIFUL TRACK
It certainly was fortunate for a lot of us the day Norm joined us. Now we are all unashamedly using him! This is a great track.
*laughing so hard it's hard to type @norm's comment*....That is one crazy picture you got on your profile bud. Is that your dog?

nice very nice deep forest mellow inside the cave there..
Real nice folksy tune. It has a bit of CSNY in it. I'm waitin' on the vox man. Saved, Fav'ed and turned to wav.
some Robert Plant-Zepplin IV style vox would be Killer!
yes! this is great - the two of you rock together - and Hurdy Gurdy!! Awesome!! If I may be so bold perhaps a recorder or flute - or best a shawm melody would work.

Sounding good over here! No, really great!
