A Sound-In remix from our Shorty event. Featuring Kavin and Grackle Live Jam, Paul Muller, Charlene Stocker, Paul Mimlitsch, Bill Newbold and Shane Cadman. Remix by me.
Another edit from a live setting in Prospect Park with harmonicist Ken Ficara and myself. This was opening moments. Ken - harmonica/electronics Jim - lap steel guitar/electronics.
Harmonicist Ken Ficara and I got together for a first time impromptu jam live recently in the meadow of Prospect Park. With instruments, some electronics, portable amps we performed for passerbys, dogs and water salesmen. This is one of 3 tracks…
Modernist avant garde NYC based composer/musician Glenn Branca passed away earlier this week. This fretless guitar functioning as a midi controller driving a 4 voice synth patch created in Pure Data is with him in mind.
Improvisation of the traditional hymn popularized in the secular by late John Fahey and before Joseph Spence I think. Did this for this weekends Sound-In event and initially inspired by a hymn Paul Muller did. I did lap steel and looping in…
mix of samples - my native flute, Mike Ambs blue whale environmental recording, Bruno Lefevre piano sample from Freesound.org. Remixed in Pure Data patch and Audacity.
First completed solo project after a years-long home recording hiatus. Recorded into BandLab running on an old iPhone, which is a surprisingly fun way to work.
A sense of Roxy Music in this and for a home recording has a very nice present feel Ben. Congratulations on new work after a year long, it happens, sometimes as in my case with another muse coming to surface. I'm glad you returned! Thanks too for your recent listen to my ukulele piece and the kind words.
Lovely melancholy and lyricism btwn recover and take ii with tongue and cheek intensity in Prayer, all interesting and my first hearings of your music in all this time on Alonetone Sudara. Thanks for this and for what you do in providing Alonetone for all of us with no expectations. Thanks too for listening to my track from Good Friday recently and the kind words. I am in turn and nice to hear what you do as well.
Digital Sea is an ambient generative music piece written in the Pure Data programming language. It is constantly changing, circulating, and flowing.
The program written to record this piece is capable of generating a unique, endless performance…
Marley thanks for the kind words re my Gentle Dark. Excellent that you too are working with Pure Data. Your evolving bubble like raising tonal glissandos are like bubbles from the ocean floor and the occasional 'noise' element winds, waves are cool. The continual weaving voice in this is very inventive - check out the Sound-In community on Facebook - we are small but long running group of creative composers working in a supportive atmosphere. I'm not as active right now as I'm working with another muse but will return.
Test recording of voice modified by a EHX Voice Box on vocoder setting; the modulating signal is the sound from a one-string instrument made from an old crutch. Post production involved adding two copies of the original mono track, panned slightly…
Sound source is Miss Hackbrett, a zither-like device constructed by a friend from the remains of an old door. It includes a contact mic for easy amplification. There are two separate sets of (guitar) strings, one all metal, the other nylon. Apart…

Nice work, gents! -K
Love the textural development!
persistent with surprises! cool
this ends like so poetically it is great.
this is ... so intense ... --- wow.
really nice stuff.. this is great.
made me relive deadwood
Not my usual genre but I love new stuff and enjoyed the listen all the way
Very atmospheric
Innovative. Lush tones. Urban anomie ambient? Alone in the dark streets but almost home? Cool track :)
What???
Nice
Amazing...I was mesmerized listening to this.
smooth
Lovely guitar sounds!
I like the mood! - "Aiwha" Bruno
shades of Bill Frisell, nice! -K

This is cool with an occasional nod to a reggae beat. Your bass parts are very pronounced and on the spot and the reggae beat has returned.... Police!

Jim it's great where things that you will utilize become such potential instruments. The higher linear voice is cool and exotic here. Good piece!
a subtle arcade video game or maybe signals from a radio telescope
Wild, Bill! Like falling in a vortex and the heartbeat I didn't note on first listen!
lovely, one of your more sobering 'Tolkin' like pieces.
Really like this Kavin - I can hear it. Haunting and sterile!
this is really cool and I don't recall it Kavin. First thought you were working with your Koto.
Rich song - lovely and weighty!
Good piece! Groove that develops is sweet and making me think of Weather Report a little.
melancholy and looking in the water
Will of the whisp and slipping out the door mystery!
some nice dirthy chords and colors and cool modulations
Liquid space Bill, fluid and magical!
Kavin one of your bests! Lovely - the opening acoustic is artful and the emergence of the electronics is subtle and sweet, love the long trail on it.
feels like under a shed out of a downpour and everything in the distance.
great sense of growing rhythm and a sound of strumming at times and electronic noise and then the wind... inventive Jim.
has a sitar like feel that sounds like going through a wahwah or some such. Like the edge of it K...
