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...

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

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…

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.
