Thanks for the comments! I've now upped a different mix with a hurdy-gurdy sample.... not exactly what I had in mind, but you get the idea. Let me know if you or someone you know plays a hurdy gurdy, and we'll do it right.

Wow this sounds great! a high hurdy-gurdy would really pop this. but what the heck?? I dont know anyone who plays one....without a great deal of liquor involved.

My first rejected Ramen Music submission.
Too Much
I wrote you a letter but I never sent it
I was afraid you might never get it
or what if you did and I lived to regret it
and it was just too much for me to take
now its four in the morning…

I'm not so sure the tunes selected by Ramen music necessarily reflect the popular vote as demonstrated by Alonetone "most favorited", etc. And it is a thankless job, inherently biased, to make selections for Ramen Music. I don't envy the position of the editors. Alas, that was historically one of the problems that lead to the demise of other record labels...
In any case, don't let it work on your head. You have a sizeable fan base and we LOVE what you are producing. Now, return to your studio and get back to work: we are hungry for more!
I'm still getting around to re-upping everything I took down last October.... this is one of them, and if I recall correctly, this is the track that was the impetus for Paul & I to start collaborating. (Something I've been missing a lot…
I’ll make my exit on the wind
Nevermore to pretend
That I’m fine
Yeah, I’m good, so good
At doin’ everything I should
To convince you
That I’m okay for today
An’ I won’t crawl out of my skin
I’ll just pretend
Some days…
Solo acoustic finger picking thing I've been working on for a while. Sometime around 1968 I started studying with Mr. George Bennett who taught me the rudiments of finger picking. Later when we played some gigs together he also taught me the rudiments…
Sounds like this was recorded outside in the evening.... *wonderful* ambiance! Of course, it goes without saying (though I'm compelled to say it anyway) that your performance is stellar. Inspiring, to say the least! Thanks for sharing, Kirk!
Don't go to the streets
Where they put you to the ground
Where they put you to the wall
And they steal your broken heart
Don't go to the streets
Where they say that it's ok
Where they've seen it all before
And they put you to the wall
The hand…
last eve there was a beautiful moon
dancing in a blue black sky
outside my piano room, it called to me
this tune is a one take playful moment, loosely based on the main theme from the 2nd mov of my piano sonata,,, i only toned down about…

Love this tune, Zack was just talking about wanting to get a copy of this game Dave.... which online game vendor do you recommend?
Also, please post the Whackbirds album next!!!
Some more good fun with Brian Bazeley and Jarvis.
I added some drums and some horns to Jarvo's noodling.
There's probably room for vocals if anyone is feeling froggy.
Thanks Brian and Jarvis
My submission for the Woody Project.
I started this jam in A minor then found out it was in C. So I figure I got as close as a guess can get.
I left it as is because it's a jam, and this tune should be jammed 300 million ways.
Enjoy Woody…
Abakua refers to a secret, Afro-Cuban, male society of percussionists - as I understand it, one had to be initiated into this society before they would be taught how to play percussion in their style. One of their hallmarks is to impose what I…
This is a special request by Sister.
It's kinda sloppy. Frankly, because I suck at it :)
I'm not much of a cover musician but I gave it hell.
It's mostly analog. MIDI drums, DB33 organ patch,
strat leads, and Ibanez chords, Dean bass…
Just messing around on a Saturday morning. A
rough cut at best, but I get a kick out of it.
This is a song by the great Jimmy Dean - 1961

wore a young boy's clothes. I always wanted to

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!)
This is a first run at MIDI drumming. I have my kit setup to a new Alesis Trigger I/O box. It turns my drum kit in to a USB MIDI drum kit. Pretty cool toy.
Most of the kits I have in the software are dry to record. Obviously, the sound will…
SOunds like you've done a little more work on the mix since the last version I heard... I'm not hearing the distortion any more on that synth track... and over all everything seems a little more balanced with more separation on the lead track. Nice.
Comments on Cave Street's stuff
There's a lovely sense of endless time in this - it works well with the drone
1 second late lol...really cool!
Man i just can't get enough of this song. Hurdy-gurdy me another time ;)

listening to this album ,, I like the blue-mars effect :)
Wow this sounds great! a high hurdy-gurdy would really pop this. but what the heck?? I dont know anyone who plays one....without a great deal of liquor involved.
The guitar is killer! Great great great!
Sweet! good job guys!!!!!
Oh yeah! Waiting for more! Great beats and cool guitar in perfect unison! This is gonna be beautiful, guys! Tess
Great job both of you. This is great nice guitar. Brilliant.

Ohhh, I like what you've done with this! Beautiful string work here. Many thanks!

Had to log back in to fav this one. Cant help but think of Lou Reed a little here.

Nice tune.... I'm about to check out the video.
Love the dynamics.... dreamy & nocturnal then those powerfully emotional peaks... just brilliant!
EPIC glacial intro! I had to turn this one all the way up!! Beautiful sounds.... love the ambiance and the echoes. :-)

Nice jam, dudes!

Yo G, nice one! Did you send it in to the Akron/Family yet??
LOVE IT!
100% RAWK! Nice solos.... Eat your heart out Ritchie Balkmore!!!!!
Oh yeah, this was in heavy rotation at my house back in the day... my Mom & I had a ll the lyrics memorized.... :-)
