12-string requires a greater sense of space, because it is, in fact, work with the orchestra sound (instead of more "focused" 6-string = black&white). And you got it. Now is the time to draw a picture, in color :-)
P.S. My favorite 12-string master - Ralph Towner, ECM, I listen to him often.
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.

When I was a music major one of my friends had a family which ran a funeral home - a well paid profession seeing that they had several cars, maids and butlers - and spent a few nights there. (We tended to stay up to the early am debating…
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…
Last demo for Magic Mike today ... LOL
This is actually a song written by Mike, and I have offered a bit of a twist to it.
Looking for some criticism

All first take improvisations. 8 tracks of madness for your enjoyment. Ear goggles will put you inside this piece. Not recommended for the faint of heart!
Recorded between 9AM - 7PM on the 26th of February.
Featuring Mark Hubbard & Duma, on didj & percussion respectively, this one begins as the most traditionally structured piece on the album. But don't get used to it, it doesn't last long... just enough to ease you into the formlessness…
Naively conceived, written and published in February 2012 for "Contemporary Chamber Music" (vol.1), an RPM12 album.
The titles of the pieces in album are follow each other in a certain order - see album description.

Outstanding!
My friend, you have a knowledge of your instrument that I could never hope to have. Magnificent piece of music.
Faved instantly.
Sweet! That is a very nice tuning indeed. I've never thought about messing with a capo like that, but now I will have to try!!!!!
Excellent!

Very impressive young fella!! The guitar sounds fantastic.
Very nice finger picking, sir. I could never do as well. With my fat fingers it would sound like my cat was chasing a mouse through the sound hole. ER
Beautiful mate very well played.
An improv...you make me SICK! This is beautiful...just lovely.
wow, twelve string, thats legendary style there bro
absolute fantastic sound here....................beautiful.
very nice, looks/sounds like you have an old friend back with you
Very perceptive Kirk. Ant is a big favorite of mine right now. Now if I could just get up the gumption to take the 12 into open tunings..
Beautiful! You must have surely listened to a lot of Anthony Phillips at one time
Sounds good. Damn good K. Man I love 12 strings....need to barrow my dad's again.
Love it............

Have you been listening to Miles' Kind of Blue? I like this.
Very cool, Kirk. More of that!
Thanks Richard, I'd like to hear your Jesu variation too!
One of the most interesting things I've heard here in a while. Like how it starts out slow and whips into a frenzy.
Nice spooky texture. I interviewed for a job at a funeral home once but opted for the hospital across the street.
Hah! Toldja!
Been browsing the (many!) tracks on your album and like this one. I love my Synthstation/iPhone/iPod/music apps!
Yaya! Chapman stick on alonetone! And so well played too.
Nice stuff! Trey Gunn comes to mind.
The guitar drifts away as if in a dream the ship sails into a sunset.
You brought the drone!
Ditch era Neil, even down to the sometimes off key guitar solo. Like much!
Great album. Very cohesive, good performances and production. I'll be returning to often I'm sure.
Great album and esp. like the pedal steel on this one!
Very Tao te Ching Michael,in surrendering you win the struggle.
8 minutes in and digging this musical stream of consciousness! Glad you persevered!
You played all instruments? Dang.
Delay my world. I bet that was fun.
Wonderful album Igor. I love nylon string classical guitar ;)
Sweet song and album Keith, beauty in simplicity!
