Archival stuff from my distant past with former bandmates in Scartaglen. A set of traditional Irish tunes. Rescued from a cassette tape done at a concert back in the early 90's. Myself on Uilleann pipes and whistle. Mike dugger on guitar and fiddle…
Wellll it's not really a mystery, it's a little Beatles remixing!! I've basically just mashed together Octopus's Garden and All My Lovin'.
Hope you like it!
toooons of fun makin it :)
Caveat emptor: I did absolutely none of the drumming in this piece.
WORLD PREMIER! FIRST RECORDING OF THIS PATTERN - EVER!

I had not touched my keyboard for a long time - couple months? So it was inspiring to play it again. I set it up in the living room of the new house and played pianoteq on my laptop using a Just Intonation tuning (below). Actually I had to improvise…
A song about Rising to new challenges...
Even though you Might not want to really....

Me on the rest...

Hi - thought I'd throw up an older piece today while I have time (doing work at the new house later). This is an improvisation with my Fender Mustang / Roland GR-20 combination retuned on the fly to 9 notes per octave "Sorog" tuning. I think…
Cant sleep....
Thought I'd write a Tune....
Had to be fairly Quiet on this, so as not to wake the Baby...
Hope you Like it.

“It Allâ€
By Tharek Mokbul 2010
I can’t find the,
Place where I kept,
My Love…
Something completely different- Uilleann pipes(Irish bagpipes) and synth. I wrote this tune over 20 years ago in the style of traditional Irish slow airs. It was recorded way back in 1991 for an album that's been out of print for over 15 years…
This came directly from an improv. It's a Taylor 814 CE in standard tuning with a capo on the second fret. It's similar to Managerie in structure but has a very different feel.
From the second CD. This composition was inspired by a visit to my friends Don's condo in Grand Lake, CO. Grand Lake sits just below the Rocky Mountain National Park. Don's condo has an excellent view of the lake and the park. I woke up one…
This track is off of the third CD. This title reflects the history behind the track. A close friend once stated to me that my playing style doesn't fit what she considered to be new age. So I wrote a composition that was, in opinion new agey…
This track is off the third CD. The title is related to playing style which is centered around tappping. Recorded with my Huss and Dalton MJC in open D tuning
So, I've been working my ass off lately, both at my day job, and spinning tracks at night. Basically, burning the candle at both ends. But, I need to maintain my music, and I've been working on this on and off, few minutes here, a few minutes…
Faith is like food/It's necessary/Not when it's shoved down your throat/They look just like sheep herds/Following feeding and growing/Trying to fit in is IRRITATING
One of our two-part tunes. Bossa nova drums and bongos with middle-eastern-y guitars, followed by what's the heaviest ska tune you've ever heard, replete with some long double-kick runs.
