A not very cheerful Christmas song I wrote for the RPM Holiday Challenge. Based on the classic Arthur C. Clarke science fiction story "The Star". http://faculty.winthrop.edu/kosterj/engl510/star.htm
Light years out and an eternity back to…
please see linked video => A Harmonic Series composition, Reverend Terry Jones, radical Islam, radical Christianity, doing harm in the name of religion.
I took recordings of mandolin, guitar, and bass and processed them in Paul Extreme…
Well done. I'm all for free speech, but I question motives of those who want to burn books, flags, etc. for any "cause". I think the burner's seek attention for themselves more often than not.
@jarvis & kirklynch - no notches, capo @ 3rd fret over the neck, then 2nd capo @ 5th fret under the neck on bottom 4 strings only, sort of an open Cmaj, standard tuning. The intro is an ebow, which I rarely use on acoustic. thanks yawl
Well, I had this crazy idea that *maybe* Buddy Guy was using some microtonal inflections in his cover of Tramp (which are what the "blue notes" are and thought it would be cool to cover it with my fretless guitar. As it turned out it was my ear…
electric mandolin on 3 tracks - 2 bowed (right and left) with viola bow and 1 strummed just a bit and mostly ebowed (center)
Washburn bass
voice with effects
drum loops sliced and diced
An ambient guitar piece done rather quickly, warts and all.
Stems from ideas I've been developing on my new JamMan looper pedal (catnip for guitarists if there ever was such a thing).
Year: 1999
Album:
Land of the Lost

Forgive me my voice!
This may be the most difficult vocal part I have written and tried to sing - but the vocal dissonance IS intentional.
Everything here (except vocals of course…
Yeah B, weird. If you look at comments, the picture is not available and there's a big white box. If you view more, the picture is present, and also a slice of it at the top of the screen. Interesting bug.
I loaded Sonar with a couple audio tracks + echo and recorded my wife's seagull acoustic via a dean markley soundhole pickup.
After the take I multiplied a couple times and edited a touch.
This is really just a test for a planned piece like…
Comments on kavin.'s stuff
awesome ashcan guitar. Try a set of GHS super thin strings for it, they cheap but good.
:( Can't get this to play for me. Ah, no, ignore that...it just began after a sticky start. Lovely intricate piece - so many melodic strands!
Hahahaha!
:)
12 string heaven!
I enjoyed this performance and compositional idea a lot - nice one!
HAHA! I needed a good laugh this morning and that was sure it!
Wonderful! Almost sounds like 2 guitars in places
Ha ha ha!! Great fun!
Wow, what a sound. No idea whatever the "About" means, but sounds great to me.
very nice, there's a lot going on here,, takes really listening to not just hearing, and yes i agree it rings out well....
Top sound Kavin very cool mate. Dig the way a 12 string rings out. This is really good guitar playing mate. Excellent.
thanks,,yesss it is pretty funny,, almost fell off my chair,,thanks for sharing
Great slide! Great tune, well done!
Wonderful journey! And I love the reversed part - lends such a great touch.
Ahhhhhh yeah.....beauty song
Nicely done Kavin. Brilliant.
Nice tune. He was and still is one of my favorite authors.

Nice mellow jam with thunderstorm, very good.

Badass, yawl. I can attest BG is microtonal having seen him, his strings bends are often slightly sharp, an amazing gtrist when he wants to be.
Bowed/ebowed mando, how about that. Great sounds and arrangement.
I like the rhythmic dynamics on this 'un and how it floats in and out of a sonic haze.
which button to push..
This has a bizarre carnival feel, Mephisto's merrygoround? Calms down to a nice resolution at the end.
Loop on man! Meow.
awesome, thanks for the tip. Been looking for timestretch software like this!
This is trippy good. Like Santana in a blender.
Wow. The amazing glu has a tune with that same title. I wonder where he's been? Miss him.
Bump for the newbies to enjoy this track!
Like all the tonal contrast going on, and the analog (?) synths.
Yes it was a longer improv, which I edited down to the best bits. Thanks much!
Ever heard of Robert Wyatt? Very much that style. Good job.
Great electro-jazz. Cool.

Great sonic space and execution, BL will be favoriting/dl'ing this.
Hi Rick! I sure like this. been hanging out with Wendy Carlos?
