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

yeah, i just checked out Kirk's site. Those look like some sweep pipes! Wish I could afford your talented craftsmanship, those instruments look very inspiring!

this is absolutely one of the most tasteful acoustic guitar pieces i've ever heard. the transitions are all natural and believable. this is incredible, and i mean that sincerely. i like the rest of what you've recorded, but i really enjoyed listening to this. it caught my attention and held it on more than one occasion.
your guitar work is great. it's so reminiscent of something and i just can't figure it out...it's like the result of david gilmour and robert fripp's kids having a kid.

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
digital metronome noise kills me. it's sort of like a less irritating alarm clock, and if there is any single noise that totally destroys my happiness it's alarm clock buzzing.
other than the metronome, though, this song is awesome. it's very unique, though i'm trying to pinpoint something it sounds similar to. i don't know if it's the reversed guitar that gives off a robert fripp vibe, or if i'm just projecting that because of your electric guitar jams cover.
either way, i dig the music. i'm listening to 'sunday afternoon' now. you're an accomplished guitar player. i really love the subtlety and texture of the synth noise, or whatever is going on in the background. this is all great so far.

Rough sketch of a proposed dreamy 12 string piece that I couldn't pull off on the 12 string so did this quick electric version with vocal pads. Not sure of the recording quality- sounds OK in my cans and kinda crappy on my monitors. Recorded march…
One from a year ago or so. Never was happy with the recording quality, but never got around to re recording it. My attempt at a kind of late 70's Phil Keaggy thing

What happened after too much time on youtube watching live vids of "voodoo chile" Noisy obnoxious and very cathartic for me! Live to 2tracks with the Jamman

This is a bonus track of sorts for the mock EP It takes a village. I had the verse chord chages around for many years but just until last week the song and lyrics came together really quickly. I thought I heard a band arrangement originally but…
Thinking about and inspired a lot by trees lately. That, and the excellent film Rivers and Tides.
Arboreal
Drink in the sun
Until the day is done
Dance with the wind
Circle of life has no end
Roots into the ground
Arms reach up to the…
Originally by Freddie King, I did the John Mayall (Eric Clapton) version since the March 2014 issue of Guitar World mag has a good transcription of it. Looking back now I wish my lead tone wouldn't have been quite so harsh in places.
Just an instrumental I came up with on the 7-string. Wanted to try a few harmonized licks. Guitars and bass are me but the drums aren't (as with all my stuff).
MrMudd&MrGold is a duo project with my friend from Brooklyn, Jim Goodin. Inspired by our common interest for acoustic improv and love for the music of Townes VanZandt and Steve Earle.
This is an improv composition by Jim, who plays 12 string…
Decided to upload a work in progress from a heavy side project called : Lab Survivor.
I have a few things in the works coming up, hopefully including an all acoustic RPM. Finally have the studio up and running with some new upgrades :) Wahoo…
Anyone who knows me realizes I dig electronic music....yet have no idea what I am doing when it comes to creating it! This is just some groovy randomness messing around with new studio equipment.
Didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped (my left forearm was burning like hell after each take). After the acoustic version, there's a distorted version, but the tapped harmonics at the beginning sound pretty crappy with distortion. I also added…
Got the basic idea for this from Keith Wyatt's Guitar World column (Talkin' Blues, Feb 2014) in which he discusses some of guitarist Grady Martin's work.
An ambient soundscape with fragments of percussion sprinkled throughout. Most of the percussion fragments are from the Live Packs '1konkret' and 'Operator 53' from Detunized.com.
Part of a collaborative effort done here. My friend sent me these guitar parts which I arranged, twisted and morphed to create this. I added the percussion and other non musical elements thanks to my kids playing while I was experimenting with…
Baby can you here the thunder tonite?
Baby can you here the rain coming down, down?
Lately Ive been dreaming of you lying next to me and I realise your gone
And I cant seem to find
A way to stop these tears, from bleeding out this heart of…
I was reading about Tosin Abasi and listening to a lot of his music around the time I recorded this, even though it doesn't sound very much like his stuff.

Love it, Kirk! What amazing reeds you must make!

nice classical/electric sound and good fretboard work i especially liked the chromatic downdrift in the main chordal theme.
this sounds incredibly familiar.. but I cannot seem to put my finger on it... Very nice melodies.
such a lovely vibe on this one. And thanks for all of the feedback, I really appreciate it!
I like this one a lot. Very nice feel to it.
A thing of beauty. Especially the bow parts :-)

...cool, Kirk; 'here to check your stuff more carefully now. Thanks, by the way, for checking out my stuff and for the comments; Bless your day.
Every time I listen to this, I fall in love with this track all over again! I hear so many different genres in the piece. I LOVE that kind of work!
Kirk, thank you so very much for your support! It means so much to us! I LOVE your work! wendy
