12-string requires a greater sense of space, because it is, in fact, work with the orchestra sound (instead of more "focused" 6-string = black&white). And you got it. Now is the time to draw a picture, in color :-)
P.S. My favorite 12-string master - Ralph Towner, ECM, I listen to him often.
apologies to pink floyd
back when I could access usenet still I made a newsgroup for amateur musicians and there was a nice group of 20-30 people who contributed and listened to each other's work. There was a woman named Emma who did a killer…

Yesterday's Dreamer
Yesterday's dreamer sat on the sidewalk
Trying to find a way through his clouded mind
There was no rhyme or reason
To why he was feeling so down inside…
So MTC put out [this wonderfully sparse instrumental piece](http://alonetone.com/mtcband/tracks/shadow-of-myself) and a vocal line just jumped out at me. Then some harmonies jumped out as well.
i was trying to work on a piece for a shark video of mine, but this is what came out instead,, my piano moments collections are the small musical threads that emerge amongst/while i am working/thinking about other things,,,
How many nights am I just about to hit the sheets for the night and then a riff appears. I'll just rough record it but it always turns into a late night.
This is a rough demo recording of a solo marimba composition from 2000. This is part 3 of a 3 part piece [1. Once (marimba) 2. Twice (marimba) 3. Three Times (marimba)]
A blast from the past! This 100% improvised track was recorded in two passes in 1994 by Bassius-O-Phelius, a duo consisting of myself on bass and clarinet, and my friend Mark Bergen on Farfisa organ and Wurlitzer electric piano. It's probably…
Oh yet another nostalgic blast from the past. I found this unbelievable backing track surfing the web some years ago. I usually never use backing tracks because they usually suck bad . But this one is like having mitch and noel at your side. I…
Comments on kavin.'s stuff
My friend, you have a knowledge of your instrument that I could never hope to have. Magnificent piece of music.
Faved instantly.
Sweet! That is a very nice tuning indeed. I've never thought about messing with a capo like that, but now I will have to try!!!!!
Excellent!

Very impressive young fella!! The guitar sounds fantastic.
Very nice finger picking, sir. I could never do as well. With my fat fingers it would sound like my cat was chasing a mouse through the sound hole. ER
Beautiful mate very well played.
An improv...you make me SICK! This is beautiful...just lovely.
wow, twelve string, thats legendary style there bro
absolute fantastic sound here....................beautiful.
very nice, looks/sounds like you have an old friend back with you
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..
Beautiful! You must have surely listened to a lot of Anthony Phillips at one time
Sounds good. Damn good K. Man I love 12 strings....need to barrow my dad's again.
Love it............
Thanks for listening and commenting mate. Cheers.

Mucho thanks Johnny Stone, ER et al. Maybe soon I'll have something new to post, if I can drag my butt off FB.

Enjoyed this tranquil little guitar trip. Tons of atmosphere.
Good version, I'm impressed! Added to my "surrogate band" playlist: http://alonetone.com/kavin/playlists/surrogate-band-pink-floyd-on-alonetone
Love this one. Really good Roger.
Yay! Now I can hear the whole thing. Nice Krautrock vibe going on here!
Yeah it cuts off for me too. Rockin' garage stuff for a minute and a half anyway.
Very cool Roger. A Tomita-esque sound trip!
Unique, dark. Old Pink Floyd comes to mind.
Thanks all, a few more to come, I don't have wifi these days so my internet use is sporadic. @Slkrell: it's an Edirol (roland)R09 wav/mp3 recorder.
So good. It's all here, the songwriting, playing and singing. Wow.
Nice rave up ala Yardbirds.
Very nice, gents. Love those harmonies!
Really beautiful, RL
Moody. Simple. Great.
Love these! Faving all.
