I fused 3 tracks, 'Tapping water', 'Sweet dream', and 'Every where I go', in my mini hadron collider in the basement, and this is the result.
It may need a little longer in the oven, and few burnt bits sanding off.
This is a piece that uses MOTU Ethno 2. All but percussion and voice were performed my Fender Mustang and midi recorded via Roland GR-20. The piece uses the Almak tuning included in Ethno 2. [Amlak recurrent sequence (x^2 = x + 1/3), as a matrix…
This is one of my first alonetone collaborations written by Louis Smit.
Everyone should go listen to some of his tunes. Louis is a very original
and talented folk style acoustic guitarist- singer - songwriter.
You can hear him here.

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…
Alright!! This is some kickin' tune right here. I wanted to mess with this one when Jarvis first uploaded it. Then Brian Bazeley added this great bass line to it. At that point, I had no choice but to add some more veggies to this stew…
The salient lines in this traditional song, for me, are these:
"... and still I hold, / that the time will come / when he and I will be as one ..."
What need is expressed in this "holding"? Against what, does our singer hope? The resistance…

A new version of an old song I wrote back in the late 80's. This version is prob a bit too slow but it's one of those things you get used to after awhile. This recording was also suppose to be a "study" version and then the real recording made…
i had fun playing my keys along with this one...what the progression you are using? I seem to have found Emaj to be prediominant. Along with c# d and e in part of the catchy melody line?? I'd have to play around with it some more to be sure...thanks for sharing!
You're just kidding yourself if you thought I could resist the chance to add a bit of percussion to this wonderful song by Osckilo & Launched. I used Paiste Sound Discs to create a 3vs.4 polyrhythm against the delightful underlying 4/4 Spanish…
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…

Details: No-name lap steel (FCFFCF),POD XT, Boss RC-20 Looper, EBow, Audacity.
A quick little improv. Too lazy to grab a guitar so just used the lap steel. I think it still has the same strings on it from…
This doesn't need deleting Doug, it needs attention. I think it has the potential to be a wondrous piece of music and to encourage you it gets a fave from me too. I love the lilting sound,
it's quite melancholy.

love it! great guitarwork great song
Ooo eerie stuff, beautifully done.
This is the track I have been looking for, for weeks. I thought it was Hitakk and he assured me it isn't him. So thanks Paul, I absolutely love it.
What I especially love about this track is the underlying American Indian flavour, the backbone of your country after all.
Yay, turned out to be a great fun collab.
Wow this is really well done - extremely emotive.
Lovely ethereal sounds here - definitely sensing some magic.
I am in awe! You are outstandingly talented. Your song writing, voice - everything is perfect.

What a great song.
Most sympathetic and gorgeous. What I like about it is you haven't tried to compete, just complete and the outcome is wonderful.
How on earth do you make your drums sing like that? Understated, melodic, compulsive. I think you are brilliant!
Amy Pond..that is a cool name. hehe. Like the description. :) Great work.
I do love your voice. This is a really great song, lovely melody and most touching lyrics. It has the "Ahh" factor.
Hi Gilbert, hey long time! Lovely, gentle song here with most pleasing lyrics. Good one!
