Wow, I'm loving your ambient stuff especially! This is wonderful! She's walking along the shore at dusk, contemplating if there is anywhere else to go...ever... *goes off in to dream*
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
Intriguing, love the ascending motif where you play guitar along with the synth bells, very dreamy sequences. I'm not sure I like the breathy hiss that comes and goes in some spots (side-effect of guitar effects, or separate synth?) but the rest of this is great.
neat. Difficult mood change at 1:55 ish... and it's smoothed over really well. Ah, back down at 2:18 . You keep the motion swirly and ambient. the pans on the different instruments keeps the mix fascinating. Keep working on these guys... I love it.
Goodness... very nice bright gitz. Makes me want to pick one up and play along. Such a welcoming tune. Wow... I'm not usually much for single instrument tracks. You've got so much expression in that guitar. Wait a sec... do I hear breaths? I'm sure you wanted that in the mix, right? Neat. The human feel is great!
That's a good pan on the gitz and pads. The bass is perfectly mellowed out, but present. I really like this mix. The drums seem to have just the right touch of reverb. Simple too, not distracting. Hrm. The composition is swell, the subtle key change is good at shifting the mood. You might want to try adding subtle taps and deep, barely audible thumps to the drums. But then, I think you can tell I'm biased there. I love percussion. I enjoyed this blend. Perhaps you'll get a chance to experiment more and throw in several more atmospheres.
Wow... you really laid some layers on the gitz. I enjoy the filter on the bell tone, but the feedback/Q/resonance on the filter is a little strong for my tastes. Still, the color is welcome. The mix is pretty focused... too. You might want to bring out the drums or pads a little more here and there. That's some... DANG... that's great layering tho. You gotta keep that up. Keep studying that, because some of these builds have me going back to school. Very nicely chilled... very well done. Thanks for sharing, friend.
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
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…
Lots of stuff going on here. Homegrown Piano loop, 12 string and 6 string acoustic loops. Some fuzzed up guitars, bass, and a sprinkle of harmonica.
Oh yeah, and Zippo slide....
Jamming with a couple buddies. I screwed the lyrics up but it was fun to do. Who doesn't want to at least try an AC/DC tune?
A live recording:
Me: Vox, Bass
Joel: Guitar, Backing Vox
Chris: Drums, Backing Vox
For 2011 RPM Challenge album John the Resonator
A Sword and Sorcery parody. With Elvis.
Daughter Brit sang the vocal in the middle part.
Elvis was the mountain king
Who ruled the land of El-Karyaang
His wife Priscilla lady fair
Was taken…
I'm sill looking for better lyrics for this but i like listening to it. EDIT i found them - see v2
It's been up at the Challenge site for a few days so i thought it ought to be up here too
This song was inspired by a melody my then 2 year old daughter was playing on the harmonica one day back in 2004. I picked up my guitar and strummed along....I kept playing around with it and "Caught in the Rain" was born.
A live studio take,made in San Francisco's "Different Fur Studio"deep in the heart of the "mission district"..a live audience made it a lot of fun!2010
Got bumps on my body
One under my eye
Been there since birth
I don't know why
Have one on my leg and one on my back
I guess it's better than having a heart attack
Someone said "Know thyself" he was pretty wise
I thought I knew me pretty…
This is the instrumental version of A Cast of Billions. I have a hard time judging my own voice (thus a true singer I am not) and it seems this vocal was rougher than most of mine. So, lets try over again with this mix.
Music in 17 equal

Wow, beautiful, intricate piece - caught me off guard.
I listened to a couple pieces and I'll certainly listen again. Nice work, great sound.
love the guitar. very airy.
very nice
Very beautiful. I won't insult you with the comparisons to other players. I'll just say that you're up there with them.
you must be my alter-ego (whatever that means)
Nice guitar sound! Fine tune!
Amazingly beautiful playing.
