My father brought a koto back from Japan after WWII, I thought this might be a good time…

Frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron
Water turned to stone

Written today.
recorded on an iMac with the internal mic and no headphones (!) so it's probably going to be muddy as hell, but that feels about right for now.
LYRIC:

Sister Savage has a little star in this track!
Melody based on 'ah! vous dirai-je, Maman,' by Mozart.. the original composer. I think it's the first and second variation of 12, but that was like 15 years ago that I learned the piece so I have…
the first multi track piece that I actually finished "in the box" in Cubase. An ambient kinda thing that grew out of playing around with the Line 6 DL4. Not sure I like the bow parts, but I may re do it later
you used to be a person in your shell

so big inside your home
the turrets face the lowly masses
so big inside your home
obvlious to the world as it cries out
and the sun begins to shine upon our tiny world

I remember this song. The first 2 words are, Dominique Dominique
Beautiful soundscape on that acoustic and lovely playing. Reminds me of an English guitarist named Adrian Legge.
Something about this reminds me of Pillow of Winds by Pink Floyd. Something ethereal.

I love this whole album. Hope you and yer bass are feeling better Rick!

It's a rainy day on planet Texas, and I've been listening to A-tone on the BIG stereo. This playlist fit the bill nicely!
Had to click play on this because of the title. Glad I did. A delightfully convoluted track.
FYI-Removed the psychedleacoustic vol. 4 playlist and put the songs that had been favorited into the best of playlist. thank ye
Is it classical or jazz? Love music like this that blurs those genre lines.
Very cool. Somebody been to the crossroads.
Freaking brilliant remix!
Rock on with that DL4 dude!
Manoman. The mixture of sounds blows me away!
I like this..zz.z.zzzzz
Wifey says this sounds like Bette Midler. I say naw, better. The horn section is genius too.
oooh. Midified guitar. Yum!!
Hey! That was nice, I wanna hear the rest!
This entire album is imaginatitve and, well, different, in a very good way. I wanna DL the whole thing.
Wonderful guitar work!

Man this is incredible. The off kilter feeling of the music belies the deeply personal lyrics. Like being in a funhouse with a slanted floor, but someone is crying in the distance.
