Created back in 1999 with the help of alonetoner K.Scot. I had translated the english lyrics into portuguese - then just decided to record both languages at the same time.
Slack key guitar and baritone ukulele.
Hula version.
Pauoa Liko Ka Lehua is about the beautiful flowers (Lehua) of Pauoa. The double entendre (kaona or hidden meaning) involves a girl with swaying hips.:)
Some experimentation that started with sandbags saying that he was looking for a wood sound. I responded with marimba plus monster reverb... and I quickly noodled together an ambient thing.
I wondered aloud whether I was done or should continue…
Let us celebrate our failures and our successes!
I submit my failure here for consideration.
I actually want to do something more with this just because it's a lot darker than I usually write. Unfortunately, it never turned into something musical…
...nice energy here, man. I like the freshness I pick up in much of what you are writing/performing.
Thanks for your interest/comments. Maybe we can colab. on something some time soon.
Peace- kss

A moody solo acoustic thing that I came up with playing in a long forgotten tuning. Just got a new Zoom H4N, so this was recorded in my shop sitting at my reedmaking bench may 12 2009
The psyche is a weird place, I'll just talk about it musically.

So, while tinkering in your shop you spy the new H4 sitting there, beckoning. You grab the guitar and spontaneously generate this very pretty thing, to break in the H4. It's another impressive performance! To respond to your question... I plan to be here, at least to listen to the great music. Barriers to recording include all the usual, oceans, stubborn equipment, yada yada. Eventually, there will be more music.
Originally this piece was written for a guitar. But I love my R3 so much! I'm playing with it. So this piece is just an electronic version. As always, all sound patches were programmed by me.

Well glu nicked all the good stuff with the hint of jazz and Lost Highways references. I can't compete with that! But I enjoyed it none the less :)
Has a certain rawness and grittiness that reminds me of Bukowski's poetry.
