So thought provoking. I’ve been finding that many of the musicians I follow are composing wistful soundscapes that invoke an emotional response. It’s like the musical world is trying to work its way through some heavy stuff. Well done, sir!
A collaboration with Chris Vaisvil! I'm so jazzed he took a Thumbjam sketch of an idea and ran with it. Either an alternate Star Wars imperial march or Amon Duul jamming with Mahavishnu, don't know which.

Mellow morning mist fall
Melting into day
This summer said son, you are lazy
Don’t follow any example, break every rule
After awhile you’ll find it’s so easy to do
Just stay within the limits of your love
Soon the air will turn colder…

I got water on my wallet and water on my shoe
Standing there at half a tank wondering what to do

Track 2 for the RPM 2015 album Cold Ground Was My Bed
"Yesterday was a den of sorrow, today is a bright mystery, the future a dim dream or ancient history"
One of my personal favorite recordings from the 52 song MYTHOPOETICA demo collection, even though there’s a sound quality issue (the bass had a bit of a buzz). This was my first time using a wammy bar – I liked it!

Kavin one of your bests! Lovely - the opening acoustic is artful and the emergence of the electronics is subtle and sweet, love the long trail on it.
Dah dee dah dee dum - nice one fella.
mix feels off-balance but that bass is massive and fresh sounding. i dig the closing splash
nice work here!
Good stuff.
Beautiful work!
E.X.C.E.L.L.E.N.T.!!!!!
Great guitar presence. What were you playing?
Thanks for the collaboration - all I can say is - I'd like to do more. :-)
It is so hard to cut through the end of RPM - I really like what you added to my bass line! Thank you for this! Your work is excellent!
This one is perfect for where I live... where walking the lake is a frozen under foot experience
Very "cool."
Awww! Happy Valentines Day!
Really clean!
very cool, I like the frippertronics/snake guitar sorta thing mixed with the cascading in the left channel.
This is really pretty
Great idea. Killer production.
This is killer stuff. Is that all you?
