A fingerpicky tune from the old days.
The different guitar voices (nylon string classical and Guild 12-string) were attained using a Line 6 Variax 600 modeling guitar. Great for recording, but I returned it because of some minor issues.

HEy Kavin. Thanks for the kind words. We're intentionally trying to do something without any borders and without too much convention. Kind of like trying to make a painting and not use canvas and brushes....thinking outside the box on this project. We thought the only way anyone would listen if is we had good song names...since they are really not so much songs as they are, moments of space isolated. If that makes sense. But thanks for hopping on board. more to come. Love your sound as well. IS the Mr. Faraday reference have to do with the character on LOST?
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.
LOVE this! A very cool tune. I love that the chorus is so pretty, so much truth delivered but none more evident than that catchy sing-songy bit where you're really talking about the joy of casual sex...lol! I F-ing love that!

Long drum solos aren't for everyone - I get it. Just do what many at Grateful Dead concerts did and look at it as an opportunity to go get another beer. On the other hand, if you are the sort of person who cheers at the fireworks show, I hope…
My girlfriend was born in the Middle East, that's why I've come to listen a lot to Arab, Persian, Turkish, and Tuareg music. I improvised this song within a few early morning hours after coming home from a concert by the incredible Tuareg rock…
I was reading this profile on MySpace and was impressed with this girl...really impressed. It's all there in her BIO. Masters degree and five languages. The part about using gender "stereotypes ironically" etc is an exact quote.

I had no idea how ridiculously good the final result would come out.

Such good fun I do it all the time.
Single Gon Bops conga track miced for heavy bass. And 2 tracks of cow bell, of course.

Had these backing tracks laying around on my drive for a while and didn't know what to do with them, so grabbed my Ebow and a fretless electric that I built for myself a couple years ago and had a go. My fretless playing is really in its infancy…

I swore that I would NEVER upload this. Was having a bad day trying to loop "nice" acoustic guitar sounds and got frustrated so grabbed my Taylor and plugged it into a cheesy Effects box and straight into the looper. Started twiddling knobs and…

You sound great on this Kavin - your thang ah think!
FYI-Removed the psychedleacoustic vol. 4 playlist and put the songs that had been favorited into the best of playlist. thank ye
Cool, cool, cool!
Wish I'd been there.
I like the guitar part on this tune, the keyboards remind me (pleasantly) of good eighties music (there was some.)
LOVE this! A very cool tune. I love that the chorus is so pretty, so much truth delivered but none more evident than that catchy sing-songy bit where you're really talking about the joy of casual sex...lol! I F-ing love that!
Wow. It all works. It started smiling after about 10 seconds and still haven't stopped.
COOL my bro. That´s what I´m talking about... GOOD MUSIC!!!
I really love this blues sound, and very well played.
Already cool. The natural sound makes it even cooler.
Comments made by kavin.
always dig long drum solos if interesting, and this sure is. DL'd to mess around with later.
Lovely slide playing there.
Drop-D tuning, Cap. And yes BJ the chording is direct influence from NY's unplugged Mr. Soul, you have a keen ear sir.
good boogie.
Really good. like how you worked around the repeating guitar figure. Kind of a Turkish, mid-eastern sound.
Heheh. Classic JMT.
Hey Norm, no prob, there's no copyright on song titles! Stinkbug was my daughter's nickname when she was small. thanks!
Que genial!
owell, nice try. Some tasty stuff here, tho.
Some dark, experimental stuff on this album. Digging it.
Always a big compliment to get a smiley from Mac! :)
..and MTC Jim!
very nice Keith. Where exactly was that playlist pic taken?
you are a rhythm machine man! I'll be stealing this 'un for sure!
saweeet...sounds like slide but it's fretless! Did you break out the DL4 for this?
Hope your heads above water my friend, great tune!
Never say never! A well executed loop piece. C'mon Bethan, give it another try!
nice Krautrock sound to this. powerful.
some of by best perfs have been in guitar centers, playing with the really expensive strings I can't afford.
Great one Jim. Love the narrative approach there.
