one of those 'it was written even before i started' songs that just rolls out like magic
i tried to keep it simple so as not to destroy the vibe
first finished (if unmixed) track for RPM 2010

This is utterly Sublime!
It seems to be one of those days where I Keep stumbling across Awesome Music!
I love the sparse Instrumentation, The driving beat, and the heartfelt Vocals!
Freaking Awesome!

It's the story of someone who played his role with dignity and with responsibility all his life, yet toward the end of it he has to wonder if it was all in vain...
This Song (Recorded and written in 06) done the conventional way. I Wrote the words 1st. I was thinking I would like to write a song kinda like those of the old days. Pretty straight forward and Not too abstract. I need to redo because the chorus…
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
Yeah I noticed yourself and Tess had done 1 hour tunes but I missed where it all started.
This one is very cool. It's like spaghetti western with a cappacino and candles. ;~))
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).
Old Conor Higgins…
I'm learning to play piano and my teacher has given me 'Old Joe Clarkes Boogie' to play. For 2 weeks it has kicked my ass. But I'm getting to grips with it now and this is my revenge!
The musical parts were recording using my Kurzweil SP3X…
Here she comes in the April sun
In her dungarees and she's up for fun
Smiling like she's a crazy girl
And she makes a face like she owns the place
And she does
We indulge ourselves in creating
A neck of beauty and circumstance
Not to mention…
Honestly I have no idea where this came from or how.
I was messing with Omnisphere patches and came across a lovely, flutey, breathy sound that put me in mind of the scenes inside the monolith at the end of 2001. I setup a Rytme pattern to…
This is a live recording of a set I did with guitarist Mike Levine on a University of New Hampshire radio show. This is one of the 'songs' we did. It is a 5-tune Irish fiddle set that was previously done by the great Irish fiddle player Martin…
I believe the tunes are
Paul Ha'penny / The Garden of Butterflies / The Broken Pledge / The Mother and Child Reel / Toss the Feathers
I turned it on and now I have to listen to the end again!
Me too! I keep looking over my shoulder. ºvº
I hope I sleep tonight
Hey cannonfire is a great description - I might have to use that sometime.
Thanks everyone for listening
For my friend and coworker, because he certainly deserves it.

Lovely! Great dual vox especially.
Beautiful! I love the subtle, understated quality of the arrangement and recording. Unmixed? Sounds pretty close to me.
Great lyrics!
Oooo great song! I especially like the emotion in the singing during the last 30 seconds or so. Great work! Wish I could play a banjo too ;-)
Great song and recording!
