ahhh Kirk, there is a world of darker glu that I've carefully buried here for excavation! This one was made with mandolin and the plucking of piano strings..
aspiring abductee pleas with alien to beam him into her ship.
Just a slight rework from early this year. New mix and vocals sometime in the near future. I'm lazy.

From today's one hour session:
acoustic guitar, fretless electric bass, tabla, tambourine, and the synthesque sound is the electric guitar played with a violin bow
written, recorded, mixed, and bounced in 30 minutes. Just a brainstorm.
Instrumentation: acoustic guitar, tabla, rattle, tambourine, claps, kick sample.

I think I dislike this song, but it's been sitting in my bounce folder far too long and something about it still makes me play it from time to time. Maybe you will like it more than I do. the simple lyric is not meant to be interpreted literally…

Format Sea - Part Two
Based on the age-old concept that a person is born anew every seven years. It's technically meant in terms of physiology - you develop all new bones/muscle/fat in a seven year period. I kind of add a spiritual/alien abduction…

08 – Feeling Confuzzzed. Written 19th/20th Feb. Recorded 20th Feb.
Come on Wembley, let’s see those hands in the air. As poppy as they come, including plenty of la la las to sing along with. I was very pleased with my Harrison-style slide…
This one was originally slated for the RPM, but I never got to it. I put together this layout one day, and it hasn't progressed since then, but vocals are coming. Does anyone have Tom Waits' phone number?

Summer Sadness indeed! But bittersweet sadness is best when captured in a smooth tune like this! I loved instrument-switching when I was in a band. cheers.
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…
thanks! these are just short brainstorms... you are right, the last one sounds like an ending to a track... Maybe that's what it will eventually become, who knows!
the first multi track piece that I actually finished "in the box" in Cubase. An ambient kinda thing that grew out of playing around with the Line 6 DL4. Not sure I like the bow parts, but I may re do it later
A track that I put on hold for the RPM Challenge.
Of course, now I can't really remember where I was going with it... but to have used it in the challenge would have been cheating.
What I do remember was that I had just discovered and fallen…
A one hour track start to finish - words music and all the faffing around at the end to get the levels right.
It's a ghost story. So go get your cocoa now!
And a Murder ballad and a love story (but aren't they all).

Whoa, where the women at? It's f***in time! Always loved this one.
like it very much! and thanks for your kind words!
Very cool and just a teeny bit harmonically challenging. Awesome.
30 minutes? Very cool. Kinda sounds like an outro for something else. Reminds me a bit of some stuff from Anthony Phillips "Geese and the Ghost"
I feel like im in a holidaay ....ummmmm
The perfect titled track for me to listen to at this moment in time....I am really tired. Your tune however has refreshed me. Easy listening pleasure.
