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.
Yeah the Variax even had a cool banjo and sitar model! But I took it back to GC because the harmonics sounded tinny, nothing like an acoustic. A minor quibble, really.

A test run with my new Line 6 DL4 delay pedal. Recorded with a handheld mp3 recorder, hence the ambient room noise. The DL4 was fed into a BOSS loop pedal also. No overdubs, all on the fly.

Remastered all the tunes in the Mr. Faraday playlist to a higher dB.
Still figuring out this mastering thang. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Oh, and happy new year everyone!
Inspired by a gorgeous recording on a wax cylinder by the composer, Tanburi Cemil Bey (1873-1916).
Performed on politiki lyra (classic kemençe), a small bowed fiddle from Istanbul.
Recorded at The Banff Centre, November 2008.
Have you ever eaten ice cream too fast, got that headache and then you spilled the words out all wrong. Well that’s me.
I decided to dig my old Peavey Fury (bass) out of the closet several months ago. It’s been about 15 years since I had played…
I went into the studio to record something I wrote... I came out to find out that 32 students had been gunned down... I already had the mandolin song and melody with a writing direction... and this senseless evil really derailed the whole thing…
Something just broke and I think it's my heart
It wasn't an arrow. It wasn't a dart
It mighta been a meter that tore it apart
But, something just broke and I think it's my heart

A bedside bomb with no alarm…
...after reading John Steinbeck's IN DUBIOUS BATTLE and watching the John Ford movie of GRAPES OF WRATH. The opening and closing statements are quotes from the Preacher in the movie.
A friend said he wanted to do a video of this track. I…
deeper and deeper i fall to sleep
and i am with you again
i can't wake up and face the loneliness
i won't feel love without you
hear the shattered lines, miles and days
didn't want to go away
nothing i can say
now the only way
fall into…
24 hour EP more than 24 hours late. I was going to title it "Perpetual Interruptions EP" but I went for something more positive. Due to weird bug in some part of my set up, there is a kick drum in only one side of the stereo for the first few…
24 hours of music making for 2008.
Yup. This is a "Gaiman variation" which means that I stopped at 24 hours and this is what I've got. Not 24 min, but it is a "Noble Failure"

Comments on kavin.'s stuff
Yep. All sounds are guitar. Filtered thru ebow and Line6 DL4 pedal. Thanks Kirk!
Awesome- are all those sounds guitar generated?
woahh, it's like a foggy memory...the kind that reanimates the senses. Nice work!
In some vague way this reminds me of Strange Cargo's Hinterland. Very ghost-y. I dig it.
great tone warm mids rich harmonics really soothing
Found this in random shuffle mode- nice track man!!
Oh WOW....this is EXCELLENT!!!!
This is really nice. Love the guitar work
nice pickin yeah!

Nice one! I like the 12 string sound. May have to check out the Line 6 jobs myself
great and a sweet haunting, i can imagine it with an electric sitar!!
reminds me of the summer and i can imagine it at some cider festival!1
mystic and evokes a hot suummer to me.
Oh, Oh, Oh, ... EXCELLENT!
Kavin...this is BRILLIANT!!!!
Thanks CE. A little delay and metal slide on the low strings. The "whale song" is reversed in the middle of the song.
This is great. I have been trying to figure out how to do this. So how (pray tell) do you get Humpback to sing guitar?
Phenomenal! Gorgeous!
You've gotta love a new toy! This makes me miss my headrush pedal.... :-( Great atmosphere you've created here.

These little looped guitar pieces are inspiring.
I am enjoying all yer tracks, BB. Simply great!
Love the sound of this instrument!
Sounds like the Dead. But better. Got anymore?
Fantastic. It's hard to maintain listener interest over 10 min. but you did it here.
@SisterSavage Thank you for the honor!
Great work. Thanks.
Just don't break the vocal chords. Love it.
Awright yawl! JMT is here!
Nice guitar textures, Limbo.
