A bit of improv done yesterday with my newly refurbished fretless guitar. Finally got the midi pickup to track almost right! Part of the sounds were gotten by rubbing a teaspoon on the strings.

Well, I like it. Almost a kichey throwback to hearts of space type cascading ambient, which no one really does anymore. Has a kind of slightly on edge shrill I find interesting.

Solo acoustic guitar recorded January 2nd 2009. Hope to do a longer more developed version at some point ,but for now just a short version to learn more about using new DAW software.

Several years ago I had a short lived duo with an oboe and English horn player named Nat. This is a demo from that period. It's an old old chord progression of mine that never really had a melody and Nat improvised this melody in the studio to…

Maybe I missed a career scoring for no budget spaghetti westerns, because this is what this reminds me of. Done live a couple weeks ago with the Taylor and a floor full of toys and loopers.
Maybe a career, or a time...

So I still hate Ableton Live with a passion for anything piano related. But things seem to go better if I head straight to arrangement view once I'm out of the improvising stage and do my recording there, rather than trying to think that session…
We found a nice bathroom, and, moved by whimsy, decided to write this little shuffle for y'all. Took us about 15 minutes to write and record. It'd lose its spontaneity, otherwise, no?
Style:
Crosby-Stills-Nash-Young-esque Bathroom Folk
Instrumentation…
I got word this morning that my dog died sometime overnight, following his emergency surgery.
It's never easy to lose a pet, but I find it's especially difficult when they're young and you were expecting to spend many more good years with them…
First post-24h tune. Music written and recorded throughout the day... and lyrics in the evening. WARNING: This one is another cliché romantic synth-pop tune; same *muse* as the last one.
Written, recorded, and mixed in 24 hours. August 01-02, 2009, from 6am to 6am.
Instrumentation: Two acoustic guitars, electric guitar (picked and bowed), fretless bass, about 7 different flutes, two tabla drums, rattles, tambourine, didgeridoo…
Also till can't believe that all of you pulled off this quality in 24 hrs. I practically crucified myself over a damn track less than a minute and half long!

This is just an untitled electronic/dance/house thing I started a couple weeks ago and a little stuck on what to do next with it. Any ideas? Also uploaded to Kompoz.com to see if there's anyone out there that would like to add to it.
Yeah that's cool! I think Beth was right though- a little more varied percussion parts throughout. Of course I'd be tempted to just turn it into a full out rock thing midway through. Full kit drums and crashing guitar, but that's me!

I really like this -- especially the vocal-like sounds, were they synth or sampled? Did you do it all with your MIDI guitar controller?

Most excellent. Thats an improv.
Fantastic playing! You've captured the feel of winter day really well on this.
Ethereal sounds-cape!! Fine piece of music!
I like the synths. Really starts it out with a certain tone.
a lot of yearning in that melody, incredible stuff!
still love this, so cool!
Brillant work Kirk. Glad to see some new ones from you! :)
really nice,, a very full/orchestral sound,, lots of nice space within these notes, the stretched quality of the fretless is really nice
Kirk, first of all, thank you for your kind words. They mean the world to us. As for this track, it is astoundingly beautiful!!! w;-)
this is mysteriously beautiful Kirk!
Dreamy. Orchestral, and foreboding. More of that Kirk!
VERY cool.
Inventive and magnificently chilling!
Menacing!
pretty cool :)
Very innovative young fella. Interesting item, that midi guitar pickup.

Another beauty!
Cool guitar tones and I like that spacey percussion!
Great 5 minute trip!
Love the mood you created on this one- great stuff man!!
Lovely melody. Can't believe I missed this one
Wonderful! Looking forward to hearing more!
Fun stuff! Great sounding bathroom- wish mine sounded like that
Yeah- definitely expand on this. Nice!
Great stuff- How did I miss this?
Lovely sentiment It was a simpler world then for sure
Damn - it's hard to lose them. I'm so sorry
I could get lost in this one all day, and the mix sounds even better in cans!
Yes! Very nice!
OMG! Kirk likes a cliche romantic synth-pop tune! (hangs head in shame) Oh Well- can't help myself. It's just really good
Rocks- I like it!
Another nice one!

I'll be looking forward to new versions of the individual tracks. I definitely had my favorites from within the 24 minutes
Very relaxing- nice track!
