Just an experiment from a while back using multiple delay units. I hated it initially, but after not hearing it for a few months I decided there were enough interesting moments to warrant sharing.

Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode
Quick recording of a new set of pipes I'm working on. Long winded explanation- prior to the late 19nth century most Irish pipes featured very small bores and finger holes and were pitched well below modern concert pitch. I've always loved them…
This track is from the 1986 Scartaglen album "The Middle Path". The first tune "Jezaig" was composed by Breton musician Gilles Le Bigot. The second tune is one of the "Cantigas de Santa Maria" and is attributed to King Alfonso X of Spain

This is a live cut from an NPR radio broadcast back in 1988 while my Irish Trad group Scartaglen was on one of its first east coast tours. Found recently on a cassette tape. Musically this was one of my favorite periods in the history of the band…
Just got in the office doing some filing so any excuse to have a listen! Oh, by the way, Mum met an Irish guy in Wales and they started talking, anyway he knew that song I asked you about and sang it to her.I thought his proposal of marriage was a bit rash but .... hey! Cheers Bee

Something completely different- Uilleann pipes(Irish bagpipes) and synth. I wrote this tune over 20 years ago in the style of traditional Irish slow airs. It was recorded way back in 1991 for an album that's been out of print for over 15 years…

I found a cassette tape the other day from 1991 which turned out to be live to 2 track demos that Scartaglen did in the studio in preparation for our 3rd and (as it turned out) final album. This tune didn't make the cut for the record but I always…

New stuff has been slow in coming for me lately, but I found this lurking on my hard drive from a while back. Frankly don't remember how I did it except that it was all live to 2 tracks and at one point one of my synth patches glitched out on…
This is quite a groovy, psychedelic number. It's the kind of recording that, if she were a woman I'd just met on the street, I'd encourage her to come home with me. But she is a bit short. Perhaps you can expand on this track someday -- alert me if you do.
Solo acoustic finger picking thing I've been working on for a while. Sometime around 1968 I started studying with Mr. George Bennett who taught me the rudiments of finger picking. Later when we played some gigs together he also taught me the rudiments…

this is classical music half the parts are played live in one go then copied for other instruments. the original takes are three and a half minutes long then copied to make this 6 minute piece all the parts were played on the laptop keyboard…
I am not BT, so no rain drops were quantized in this production.
Storm was recorded last night on my Tascam DR-07 (with wind filter and limiter).
Just a simple piano improv. That of course had to be tweaked far out of the improv stage.
Pain is inspired by my bout with severe nerve damage in my lower back. As anyone who has ever had a good hurt can tell you, it gives you an internal feeling of chaos that often comes and goes in waves and spikes. The music follows this pattern…
Just a quick conceptual sketch of a new piece we're brewing. 210 bpm, 5/4, with 6 bars per phrase. We'll probably take this down once we've got more there. Our poor pianist will probably get carpal-tunnel syndrome from this.
Instrumentation…
it is icy. it moves. it is glacially inevitable. the listener may percieve tension. a desire to break free. a wish to increase velocity. it is impossible. it will proceed at its own pace. relax.
White Light was written in June along with 10 other "Off the cuff" tunes. Just before the great flood in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Our house was flooded and slowly being rebuilt. This is 4th of the 10 to be recorded.
Recorded: August 8, 2009
Details: Epiphone Les Paul (DADGAD/DADGBE - capo III), Seymour Duncan Pickups, POD XT, Boss RC-20 Looper, Audacity, Sound Forge.
I'm convinced that composing/recording daily is the best way to really find out if a DAW fits your workflow. And I think Ableton Live nailed its final nail in the coffin for me tonight.
See, if I weren't writing so much, so quickly, I would be…

That's really smashing when it goes back to the gentle melody after the dancing!

Maybe I'm just in the mood for dark and slightly disturbing this morning, but I like this!
Lovely as always! That build up at about 4 minutes is just great
Wow- This is a refreshing change of pace for you- Lovely stuff!!
Nice moody piece!
I needed a good butt kicking this morning- thanks!
The storm is the perfect backdrop for this- nice!
Oooh- that is some pain!. Love the storm sounds in the background
Very cool- had to come back and check it out again. Love it when the bass drops out and then re- appears
Not my usual cup of tea, but this is really well done. Great textures and that shift at about 3 minutes is just too cool!
Has attitude! I like it!!
Love the sinister chord progression!
Wackiness incarnate! Great fun. Can't wait to hear more
Oh Yeah- laid back nice stuff!!
A wonderful icy trip. Great sounds!
Great hook - really nice sounding production. Love the guitar tones!
Great stuff - love the beginning

Rant on Yelyah- just keep making tracks like this- great!
What a great rhythmic groove!
Wild stuff- I like it!
