My RPM challenge this year: acoustic guitar instrumental album with no more than three tracks on each tune (ok, maybe four!)
This one is a single track with no overdubs. On the 12 string, the 4th,5th and 6th string pairs are tuned a fourth apart.

Hi Kavin, if your new tuning changed the length between the 5th and 6ths fret for instance then, no you could not accomplish this by changing the tuning of the open strings.
On the other hand you can make a small trip into microtonality by retuning the open strings a quarter flat or sharp relative to each other.
Sometimes a tune pops up right to left field. This is one of em! I backed it up with a stand-up bass track which I was intending to re-record before RPM submission but ran outta time.
Three years ago, I brought my two youngest up to the summit of a local mountain (actually, we went up Shelving Rock Mountain, but that song wouldn't be as good). Have a listen to see how that hike went.
I recently bought the Imperfect Samples [Braunschweig Upright](http://www.imperfectsamples.com/website/samples/braunschweig/braunschweiguprightpiano.php) (Pro) sampled piano for Kontakt after falling in love with the sound of the demos.
I have…
Cave Street posted a track recently, their contribution to the Woody Guthrie Project, organised by Akron Family.

I wanted to take a shot at this too, so here's my demo. It was really just half…
The vodka, ahhh. One of 3 that I recorded to a dimming flashlight during a power outage.
One take into the Micro BR hole with some harmony and noodle overdubs.
Vodka
I want the vodka
'Cause I know it's gonna make me play better…
Comments on kavin.'s stuff
Very cool tones !! Nice!! Almost middle eastern
Move over Leo , Kavins on to something here. A fountain of sweet new sounds to these ears
Gorgeous sounds man! Love the sound of that tuning. You get some wonderful chord voicings that way
nice playing, the 12 string gives the fingers a work out.
lush and soothing.
hi Kavin, Wondering Aloud is on my list!
Kavin, this is special. The sounds are familiar yet strange. Thats sooo cool ! thanks , my ears are refreashed, Steve
I'm a fan.

Back again
Instant fave! Love! w;-)
Oh my, that's artistic!
@Wildgeas: YAY!
Downloaded - because I wish to cut it in to little loop-able pieces, toss it in to the air and see what happens.
A very sweet rambling acoustic improvisation!
Very nice man, little hints and ideas floating all over in this one. I also enjoyed the harmonic slaps in this and the lead runs back and forth p
Acoustic and rambling.....nice improv J
ah, nice! Makes me want to try an acoustic release this year!
pretty chords, great tone & harmonics!
Nice! I really enjoyed the section with the slapped harmonics about 3 or 4 minutes in

Pretty darn cool.
Disturbing. Funny. Inventive. Sometimes all at once.
Great pickin'. Hearing this alternate with chimps8myears is jarring, but in a good way!
Very nice laid back acoustic songwriter album. Makes me wanna do something like this next year RPM.
Great southern rock feel on this 'un.
Agree with Kirk, this is great. Must pull out my copy of Koyanisqatsi and watch it again.
Very cool, this.
I was going to give you some positive feedback on this track, but looks like you already got some! :>D
Definitely going on my best of RPM10 mix cd.
@ Hardrick the bass sound is the fretless bass software instrument in Logic express. Pretty cool huh?
This is a fun album! Almost makes me wish we still had a little one (not..). This track in particular evokes Eno.
Yawl did good on this, I love WG. Thanks for the link!
Sounds straight outta 1965! Love it!
oooo good album but I have a weakness for instrumentals like this.
I can tell this is gonna be good stuff already, right up my geetar alley.
Very nice, this one.
Cool! Vangelis with guitars! Diggin' this album.
Wonderful album, guys. Good job!
I like mine straight up with a jalapeno slice, no vermouth.
Classic Moschell sarcasm at work here. Ever heard TBone Burnett's "Aliens from Earth"?
