A moody solo acoustic thing that I came up with playing in a long forgotten tuning. Just got a new Zoom H4N, so this was recorded in my shop sitting at my reedmaking bench may 12 2009

there is a great melodic feel to this study
super clean guitar sounds, too
you're a 'fera' of the fretboard, as the brazilians would say.
(fera= 'wild animal' - which somehow gets used colloquially as "musical genius")
thanks for your kind words re: Wanna go home.
The chords are taken from a bossa nova tune - Quando Chegares - by Carlos Lyra - a great bossa songwriter.

Thank you for listening to my track and for the nice comments.
I really love the rich sounds that you have in this track. It's very soothing to listen to...a really nice composition.

the first multi track piece that I actually finished "in the box" in Cubase. An ambient kinda thing that grew out of playing around with the Line 6 DL4. Not sure I like the bow parts, but I may re do it later

Straight ahead stone city electric blues for an old friend who used to spend hours spinning BB King and Mike Bloomfield records for me. Recorded back sometime at the end of 2006 on old analog equipment

Something you don't often hear from me and that's
straight drummin'. On this track I left the
original L/R kit track because it just sounded
more raw and nasty. Listen close and you'll hear different levels on the high hat. Plus, you can…
This is inspired by Frippitronics. Frippontroncis is I call non-traditional mood music invented by Robert Fripp master guitarist for King Crimson. It involves loops of sustained guitars, in this case using an e-bow. I usually do one of these…
Hey Kids, Happy RPM. Surf's up! I played this one for my lady, she said she wants to move to California. I'm not sure if that's because I've been wired up in the Dog House for 9 days or if she wishes to try some surfing. Go figure....
Anyway…
Well I *had* intended to try doing something different this week.
So technically I succeeded.
It's solo piano again, but I had to teach my left hand how to play this somewhat syncopated bass line, before I could actually compose against it…
When I uploaded this last night I thought it was a failure, this morning I am not so sure. I've just listened to it again and, while it fails to live up to my expectations when I started, there's something about it that I like.
The initial…
Dark and sinister indeed! I like the use of your voice and the fact this it's incoherent makes it better. OOOOOH! That laughter at the end just caps it off!

War is tough. War is tough on everyone. and War has it's dues. So without further ado I entreat our men and women of the US Military an awesome Electronica piece that will rock your heart out.
just finished this one, represents a slightly new direction i am taking i think.
i am particuarly proud of the polyrhythmic sound i achieved. i was worried it mite become too cluttered (at the beginning) but i think i achieved clarity.

Dreamy. Absolutely wonderful. Darn! Apparently I've already faved it!! I hate it when that happens.
Beautiful.
Beautiful playing!

Just wanted to express my thanks to everyone for all the kind comments. Thanks folks
oh, and did I forgot to say how lovely this song is? Really nice work.
I knew this was recorded in the shop because I can feel the spirit of craft in the melody, if that makes any sense. You must make real magic there.
!!!
Nice track, great guitar sound!
Oh so beautiful Kirk! You get me everytime!
very, very good! (great, really).
Lovely sound, kirk.
gorgeous. - therese
Oh my, how absolutely lovely. mmmm
This is lovely fingerstyle. These pieces of yours may push me back to playing more acoustic.
Thanks for the encouraging comments; I'm digging your stuff as well -a lot of subtlety here. Thanks for the sounds!
Sweet sound.

Great song man!
Really beautiful!
Nice one man! Love the drums!
Yes- Very different for you and very cool. Love this sort of thing!
What a riot! That had to have been big fun to do!
Lovely meditative quality about it!
Nice!

Yes! Very good tune!
Hooked after the first 10 seconds!
Beautiful man! You must be recording at least partly using a pickup- has that distinctive sound
Lovely layered vocals!
Love cool! Love those harmonics in the outro. Great stuff man!
Had a productive weekend I see! Really nice. Your tracks all have such a distinctive sound
Nice moody one guys!
Nice! Intense!
Haunting!
I can't imagine what it took to put this together. It's so dense, but it works really well!
I'm loving the way this is slowly developing at about the 5 and 6 minute marks. I'm still jealous of your clean guitar sounds!
Wow! Great stuff! This would be a blast to improvise over
