My wife went "I like the bird picture" when I was looking at the latest playlists, explaining that if I uploaded all the ones I've got ready then I'd hog the top of the front page so that's why I'm waiting.... I said that picture's Djörk - wow... haven't heard Djörk music for ages... I'm educating her now :) Hope you're ok in these interesting times.
I had been listening to the new Massive Attack album for a few weeks, and I was initially trying to mimic some of the sounds I heard on there - especially from the songs "Splitting the Atom" and "Girl I Love You." But, then somehow the whole thing…

Got a guitar for my birthday... I have been trying to learn how to play it. This is a cover of an old Smiths song I tried to tackle for Lesson 10 "Finger Picking."

The idea was to create something with a bit of the flavor from Bach's Passacaglia in C Minor (and especially the orchestral transcription by Respighi). I didn't quite hit the mark, but it was a really fun project.

Maybe I missed a career scoring for no budget spaghetti westerns, because this is what this reminds me of. Done live a couple weeks ago with the Taylor and a floor full of toys and loopers.
I was thumbing a ride along a hot, deserted Caribbean road. When Steve pulled up in this vintage pre-war Chevy, I was very grateful. It just so happened he was heading to the same cantina I was, so we kicked back with a pitcher of mojitos…
This is excellent from both of you!
Norm sounds like an entire rhythm section, and I love the interplay between the various guitar parts.
More triangle!!

Weight of the World
Open your eyes it’s a beautiful day
Throw off the weight of the world
The air is clear and the sky is ablaze
Winter leaves its scars on us all
I’ll hold…
I've had a bit of a love/hate relationship with this one.
I enjoyed making the beats and think that part came out pretty good but everything after that felt rather haphazard and didn't feel right to me.
I was close to abandoning the track…
This is a live cut from an NPR radio broadcast back in 1988 while my Irish Trad group Scartaglen was on one of its first east coast tours. Found recently on a cassette tape. Musically this was one of my favorite periods in the history of the band…
Another Live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen back in 1988 on the NPR show Mountain Stage. This time a piece of Gaelic mouth music followed by 3 reels. Maybe the most complex arrangement of a set of tunes that we ever did.
Took a sample of a cd skipping (artist was Skip James, irony) and messed with it in Filtatron app,added some awful funk accompaniment that sounds like a soundtrack for a bad porn movie, hence the title.
It's a small song about a blurred childhood memory of a night in the woods when a wild boar made us run home in panic.
The monster came through the ground
Across the glade we ran
There was a sense we felt again - never felt again.
Some reflections after recording this song:
1. Mic positioning for a live take can drive you crazy
2. The lowest note I can comfortably sing is an A
3. A tortured soul can somehow write an amazing love song
4. I still have much to learn
2011 according to Regs research was pretty shit for most apart from the couple from England......it thought i would use a Chinese theme to the music being that they own it and it was the year they were able to buy most of it cheap.....note to…
Songcrafters.org did a "Live in the living room "festival recently...
The only music I can play in my living room these days is the odd lot of contemplative classical guitar, as anything else would wake up the family at night... :)
Here is…
Comments on Djörk's stuff
Still absolutely brilliant, Djork. Would love to hear some new stuff from you.
I like that ...

I actually like this version with the drums more. Glad to have you around. I miss the old AT crew. Doesn't feel the same.
I like this ...
This one has a nice flow to it.
It’s been a while my friend. Good to have you back. I need to re-listen to a lot of your stuff.
Thanks for the comments D!
I never mastered finger picking, and I don't even try to fake it. Just not that coordinated. You're doing it right. Very pretty. Rock on!
I love how brave you Icelanders are.
Soulful electronics...very clever.
Should be in a movie!
Quite like this!
I choose cheesy drums :)
Djoruitar! :) Awesome! Sounds pretty damn good already!
Amazing track. Dark with a lot of gusto. Incredible stuff.
this piece bursts to life at the 2:40 mark. Superb composition. Loved the song dynamics.
Wow, love this.
really terrific!
pretty cool
