The theme for Improv Friday this week is "variations". So here's an improv reconstruction of the one classical piece I know, Bach's Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring.
A friend of mine once called this kind of jam session "noodling", as in "straight from your noodle (pointing to his head) to the guitar". This is a primo "noodling" session.

Song #2 for the RPMC. My goal is to have 12 short tunes (1-3 minutes long), so I need to pick up the pace.
Again, quartal tuning on the top 3 unison pairs of the 12 string. I've been listening to Ralph Towner's Blue Sun, hence the title.

Ditty #9 for the RPMC album "Bones".
I'd had this rolling around in my head for about a year now, and even played it live with the SD&Q trio. Didn't quite turn out as planned, which is not unusual.

really not much synth, all experiments with effects over guitars and then stretched or feedback recording problems that turned into dial tone like drone sounds. Awesome either way you brought it, dude!
The berimbau is a Brazilian instrument associated with Capoeira, which is a Brazilian art form that combines elements of martial arts, sports, and music. It was created in Brazil mainly by descendants of African slaves with Brazilian native…
A manipulated ambient-ish piece
Sound sources, 5 string bass, 18" and 14" china cymbal, cornet, mixed tuning, 6 edo, 12 edo, unconstrained pitch.
kudos for anyone who listens to the whole thing.
Nobody knows how, what it will be - the future. We look at it, trying to see, to detect something and ... it goes fade, it's always receding, receding ...

This is a song I made by recording several guitar tracks and editing on an all nighter session in November of 2010. The bulk of it was done in a 12 hour period with minor tweaks added in over the months. This was recorded using SONAR 8.5 and a…
Home made cannon in Just Intonation, cymbals struck by hand and bowed. (I don't own so many cymbals - I made a field recording while walking through the cymbal room at Sam Ash. A most exciting experience actually!) I did buy two cheap cymbals…

I used about half of the tones produced in my stop sign video as samples looped in Kontakt and improvised on an 88 key controller in 17 equal notes per octave. Not something you'd listen to for enjoyment.

Nice one mate
This was excellent. One of my many failings is the inability to fingerpick anywhere near as well as this. Well done. ER

Still wonderfull Jeff. Good seeing you here!
Me too me too! I wants one! I have a berimbau app but it dont sound near this good.
A nice breeze coming off my subwoofer.
Alien IV soundtrack. I'm with Norm, this gave me the willies.
great rocking live track
Love it great great
sounds like the Andromeda Strain soundtrack, which I am still searching for. Very good sir.
Very perceptive Kirk. Ant is a big favorite of mine right now. Now if I could just get up the gumption to take the 12 into open tunings..
no such thing as too many guitars.
some very moody blues there (not referring to the band)! Well played. Some old Beck/Clapton/Page sounds shining through.
brilliant sounds
At the risk of dating myself, this reminds me of the Small Faces..which is good. It has that 60's psych pop feel.
Mucho thanks Johnny Stone, ER et al. Maybe soon I'll have something new to post, if I can drag my butt off FB.
Reg been listening to Enya too? Nice one here.
Nice! Well played.
Good one JMT!
pretty creepy. But cool.
Really like these tones and ambient sounds!
Simply beautiful.
The guitar sounds great on this.
