recorded for the Japan benefit happening this weekend (right now) over at improvFriday. Stop by and help or just give a listen.
My father brought a koto back from Japan after WWII, I thought this might be a good time…
acapella vocal loop
In the bleak midwinter
Frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron
Water turned to stone
Snow had fallen
Snow on snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter
Long, long ago

Back to basics here. recorded with the Yeti mic.
Ramblin' round your city,ramblin' round your town
I never see a friend I know
As I go ramblin' round boys
As I go ramblin' round
My sweetheart and my parents I left in my old hometown…
existential dread has hit my soul
weigh me down like a lump of coal
or the monkey on my back burning fossil fuel
it's getting harder to keep cool
keep on acting like everything's fine
that dog in his burning house
crossing the line, break…
I agree with Jim .. very introspective lyrics like the beat poets .. beatnik kinda song or poem song. this is unlike any I have heard from you ... is there a part two .. ,, this stuff is good.

wild set of of introspective lyrics and surprise entry in the music mix Kav - somewhere between beat poetry and lo-fi hip hop! Well done and new turf for you!
With huge thanks to the awesomeinfinity Jake, Wrinkled Shirt, who let me use his gorgeous instrumental track "Gaza".
The sun left the city, from the ground
Moonlight woke up, falling down
Why are you scared, free as a bird
Now that the heat…
One of my favorite recordings and favorite songs. The drums of this Political Folk tune was generated with the Yamaha E313. The lead guitar break needs replaced with a violin, but…
THE FINAL HOUR
Welcome to the final hour
Everybody kneel…
This demo recording turned out particularly well, especially when compared to how most of my MYTHOPOETICA recordings sound. The lead guitar employs an Eastern Folk scale and style of picking, greased with GEM-style Blues butter.
SUPER YOU…
STEPPIN' ON SOME TOES Key - Em and E

Well, some folks got big noses
Some folks got big hats
Some folks stand out in the aisle
Make it hard to pass

Well, I'm almost on a roll now - this little love song was written, arranged, and recorded in just a week. I've been meaning to attempt something like this for years, just never got round to it.
I'd actually settled down to finally record a…
Defiance, self-doubt, hubris, failure, choosing...It's all here to hear.
The title is a nod to my love of a certain guitar player and singer from a late 60's act; who's solo records were even better. The vibrato guitar is inspired by him…

They won't just sit around waiting for you to come up with something interesting to do

Ambient, building electric guitar instrumental, something like a cross between the late great Gary Moore and some softer stuff by Allan Holdsworth.

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.

Imaginative chord progressions. Sad you're gone.
Cool song, and concept, I may take a shot at it.
Badass, yeah.

Good job yawl!
Hafta think about that vocal thing..
I dig it, 80's vibe or no.
Yeah. Way harder to keep "in tune". ;)
Such a great track, I felt bad about pushing it off the front page! Great album, dude.
Sounds like you and Neil been in the same ditch. That is a compliment.
Not easy to sustain interest over an extended jam like this, but it did for me.
