can I have one more comment? - ok,
So the manners of the guitar and snare, etc,. with expressions that are just simply unimaginable by normal ... regular people like the man in the street or some average Joe.. woe.. don't stop what you do,.. ,..
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.
I thought it would be fitting to post this today, on Memorial Day, as a tribute to my friend William Easley, as well as all who have fought and died in wars, American or otherwise.
Sometime back in the 60's William (Billy from here on) heard…

shard hopping...or hard shopping? either way, this little remix-expansion of Kavin's "shards" is one of 21 "duos" on an album I'm releasing next week @ bandcamp.
made this for the recent indaba contest; kept mine true to Reich in some ways but put some new spins on it. my main rule was to use only the orig for sound sources.
This track was my attempted submission for Ramen Music #001. I finally got around to uploading it here.
It was made using several instances of the Max for Live instrument "Loop Shifter" that I played in real-time using my Novation Launchpad…

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…
Comments on kavin.'s stuff
Oh Yeah! That's nice alright!
Oh hell yeah!
Excellent!!!!

Solid Blues Track...always love the harp in there.
Well done.

Like listening to some STCFTHOTS-PF stuff. Damn, master guitar work here.
This comes together pretty good...the guitar stands out beautifully.
Ooooh! Nice, sweet, interesting, tasty! Groovy -- Rock on!
Does have a real 60's jazz club sound. A good thing that is. .
Now isn't that some gorgeous picking?!
Superb
Excellent. Great execution on the guitars, great delivery with the vocals. Beautiful, moving, touching, tasteful. Fabulous.
Skillful, meditative, gorgeous, sweet, sad, moving, dreamy, tasteful, delightful.
Has a Beatnik sound I thought was lost and forgotten early on in the '60s -- very cool mixture of sounds. Rock on, y'all!
I was expecting some wild fuzz guitar and when I heard that acoustic I fell over… in delight. Well done. Your voice is suited to this song I think.

Wow! You must have some organizational skills...great mash! I like the reversed gtr and various treatments.
Cheers Chris! Fantastic video too.
Yay! I like the contrast of fluttering flute with the violent smashing sounds being triggered by the percussion perhaps?
good luck, hope you win. A great entry!
This rocks hard! Congratulations on finishing this project!
Dynamic, slightly atonal. Nice!
excellent cover!
@jarvis: Squier Tele run thru son Eric's POD XT.
might be a leeetle to experimental for what they want for Ramen, but I liked it! Bethan singing? Really?
O lovely, really good improv!
If that's MiDI,has a great live sound, hard to accomplish. Brilliant playing too. Very impressive,doesn't need vocals, IMO.
Wild mechanistic nightmare with a Magma choir!
this Hardest Blow project is really awesome! Cant wait to hear it all in it's entahrety.
@AFC- it reminds me of early Scorpions, hence the heavy metal observation..heavy metal lite? Ah well, screw genres...
Love how this turned out! I don't get to do heavy metal often, that was fun!
It's hard to get this expressiveness from an ebow, well done!
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.
