Gotta say, this is one of the best recordings I have ever heard (amateur or professional)! The balance between the instruments is absolutely amazing! This track is blues jam perfection!
Waiting For The Lights To Come Back On
Yesterday after a storm rolled through, we lost power. Recorded two separate tracks with the Little Martin using the handheld, then laid them on top of each other.

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…

Nice melody:)
Very nice. Great guitar sound.

Nice! Groovy guitar sounds
Pretty neat - loss of power and found Derrek Bailey on the way:)
Kavin this is right out a fusion in one of the great duo albums of Towner/Abercrombie, wonderful vibe and feel.
Interesting!
I'm jealous. This is great.
Bluesy, jumpy, what more could a chap ask? And I'm loving the sound of that harp too.
Thanks, all. Kip is hands down the best harmonica player I've ever heard.Phil was such a great drummer, too, RIP my friend.
.Hi, Kavin.... The sound of the harp is so breathy.. Ill steal that. The change up at 1;56 is so tentiony. Is that a real word?
Nice one!
Oh Yeah! That's nice alright!
Oh hell yeah!
Excellent!!!!
love the free form feel.
Solid Blues Track...always love the harp in there.
Well done.

This is mellow water so calm and still ... not one ripple unfolding unto me. :)

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!
