A space and time oddity to be sure. Very well done. Being a Doctor Who fan, I can imagine the good Doctor thinking this as the Tardis spins out of control.

Sunday aftnoon (11/09/08) took the reso down to the Fort Worth Modern Art Museum and recorded some doodling inside the Serra sculpture Vortex. No effects added, all natural reverb inside the structure.
Just got home after staying with a band of "Savages". Unpacking my stuff and thought, "This is how I'm feeling!"
Lovely, atmospheric piece. Well played!
Well, here is a new version of this one. I was not playing my own guitar, but one of a friend, which doesn't sounds so bright. Anyway, i think this is a better interpretation, but still has some mistakes. (this time is well tuned..)

shard hopping...or hard shopping? either way, this little remix-expansion of Kavin's "shards" is one of 21 "duos" on an album I'm releasing next week @ bandcamp.
made this for the recent indaba contest; kept mine true to Reich in some ways but put some new spins on it. my main rule was to use only the orig for sound sources.
This track was my attempted submission for Ramen Music #001. I finally got around to uploading it here.
It was made using several instances of the Max for Live instrument "Loop Shifter" that I played in real-time using my Novation Launchpad…

Comments on kavin.'s stuff
Mucho thanks Johnny Stone, ER et al. Maybe soon I'll have something new to post, if I can drag my butt off FB.

Very nice, Kavin. Very jazzy indeed. ER
very excellent,,you handle those strings beauty,,
Here's a classy piece of work. Top notch playing
Well played Maestro!
:-D Thanks fella! Ace track!! Completely cool.
Man you sure are a top guitarist this is very cool.
Great guitar mate really nice
That's is some crazy good natural verb going on.
I thought I already faved this. Bad Tess. Very cool track, k.!
Very cool - enjoyed both versions (do love your vox on this track though).
What a kick as track! w;-)
This is really cool Kavin. You play a top guitar mate.
The guitar, as an instrument to express yourself, demands presence of internal force and spirit. Here it is.
Sounds awesome!

thanks. @ vaisvil, no overdubbed the synth later just for a little spice.
I have to try that tuning now. This is very cool!
can't say I'm done 4ths - I'm usually fixated on 5ths - nice improv - did you play the synth at the same time?
Comments made by kavin.
I do too!
gettin my shotgun..
THis kicks.
Wow. I used to be able to play that on my 12 string (!) but never got near this proficiency on it. I'm impressed.
Wow! You must have some organizational skills...great mash! I like the reversed gtr and various treatments.
Cheers Chris! Fantastic video too.
Yay! I like the contrast of fluttering flute with the violent smashing sounds being triggered by the percussion perhaps?
good luck, hope you win. A great entry!
This rocks hard! Congratulations on finishing this project!
Dynamic, slightly atonal. Nice!
excellent cover!
@jarvis: Squier Tele run thru son Eric's POD XT.
might be a leeetle to experimental for what they want for Ramen, but I liked it! Bethan singing? Really?
O lovely, really good improv!
If that's MiDI,has a great live sound, hard to accomplish. Brilliant playing too. Very impressive,doesn't need vocals, IMO.
Wild mechanistic nightmare with a Magma choir!
this Hardest Blow project is really awesome! Cant wait to hear it all in it's entahrety.
@AFC- it reminds me of early Scorpions, hence the heavy metal observation..heavy metal lite? Ah well, screw genres...
Love how this turned out! I don't get to do heavy metal often, that was fun!
It's hard to get this expressiveness from an ebow, well done!
