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…

Background music for a fun father/daughter YouTube video editing collaboration/experiment (embedded here.) My daughter and I filmed and edited the movie, and I wrote the music after hearing some video-game music my daughter wanted me to emulate…
I can hear the influence of the Bulgarian Duda players in some of the keyboard melodies. Great stuff. Meant to get back and listen to the rest of your stuff for a while now- thanks for this
Earlier this year I was in a community choir, mostly senior citizens performing songs by bands like Soundgarden and Green Day. One of the songs, "Grateful," had a lyric that went 'In a city of strangers/I have a family of friends.' It was Halloween…
One of the songfight inspired titles for RPM 2007. This was also picked out of a hat. This one is the mother of all semitone slide bass/root note chord smashers. It's everywhere. The lyrics are some of my favorite, though most people have no idea…
Enjoying your stuff Gary. Thanks for the comments as well. That was ebow on the "timekeeper" cut. I'll check out more of your stuff when I have a bit more time. Love the chorus on this BTW

uncle-nephew collaboration:
My nephew banged on the guitar, I found a few usable loops in there. I had him sing" the people in the city are runnin' 'cause the robots in the…
This song is done in a dropped F tuning. I won't bore you with the tuning itself, but the same tuning makes an appearance in Consequence, Painted Tense, 70 and others. My favorite part of the song is the verse after the solo. For some reason I…

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