Hello Little One
Hello little one
Glad I ran into you
Are you some kinda freak
Or did you escape from a zoo?
Ears like a fox, look like a dog
About as much hair as you'd…

A little birthday uke ditty, bookended by two improvs
So this is year 61
Made it this far
Let’s have some fun
Keep looking forward don’t look back

Of joy and pain
We all live for love
Sun or rain

We forgot to mention that Reg visited Norm's place a little later and added some vocals. The video is a ride through the US state of Virginia. The Texas Tavern serves cheesy westerns (cheese, fried egg, burger, bun) in the downtown of Roanoke Va.

I have tried to capture that "stabbing"feeling that comes when someone says, "You were really pissed last night! Do you remember what you did?" And of course you don't remember! So you don't know whether you were a dickhead, or an arsehole or…

Other layers may or may not be in the works, but I thought I'd let everyone have a listen so far.

How can it be so clear

The first night you were here
Like going back in time
Sweet as summer wine

This started with a couple of samples in a new version of Boite Diabolique where the samplers slide over them at different rates and varying granular density. I recorded some of that as I varied the rates and then brought the recording into Live…

Outstanding.
Oh, this is masterfully played. Just lovely.
Okay, this is just beyond lovely.
Dude, this is great! Looooooove the energy!
"We went away to find ourselves and came back to someone else." Great line. This track is not what I expect from you.

Serenaded me lovely, there.

My...how did you get Crosby/Nash to sing bg vocals? Brighter days, JMT.
I usually go to iHop for a cheesy western, but I bet they're better at Texas Tavern.
Ok sorry. Some criticism. Too short and needs a better title.
Happiness is waking up to new tracks by Geas and MTC. Send me some of that water yawl are drinking.
Good luck with that bro. This rocks.
Great great video and song. Looks like Va. could use some rain too. Where is the Texas Tavern shown at the end?
Very pleasant. Feel good electronica.
Sounds great sans vocals. Heard of Popol Vuh?
Aaah. Dreaming of the finned beauties..
Refreshing, a rush!
Dark. Disturbing. As it should be. This was the anniversary recently wasn't it?
Nice one KL, made me feel good which I needed.
how the hail did I miss this? woaw
Reminds me of my days working in the Denebian trilithium mines.
Well done. Very Pachelbel.
added to the electronic/ambient playlist. thanks. http://alonetone.com/kavin/playlists/kavins-favorite-electronicambient-tracks-on-alonetone
hard to believe you have no more than 20 listens on any of your tunes.
dreamy. great. But now I have that blasted earworm.
The Cline brothers, really? Would love to hear more about that someday. Nels seems a bit subdued, but still great.
I like the treatments on the horn. The rhythm brothers are spot on, as usual.
