I'm calling this my Halloween track, but really it's just one of my more noisy experiments that I never intended to release! I actually can't remember now how I got part of these sounds, but it's all the Taylor and a floor full of toys, and a…
An unusual traditional tune from the first Scartaglen album way back in 1984. Going through stuff the other day and ran across the LP and couldn't even remember the tune or having recorded it. I played guitar on this track

Haunted clockwork! Sounds like at least some of these elements are being played backwards. I love it - especially the sprinklings of electric guitar from the first minute onwards. Very creative - very cool.
I swore that I would NEVER upload this. Was having a bad day trying to loop "nice" acoustic guitar sounds and got frustrated so grabbed my Taylor and plugged it into a cheesy Effects box and straight into the looper. Started twiddling knobs and…
Another one from back when I was tracking to actual tape. Was going to do a new version at some point, but decided I had lost interest. Sometimes there's no sense in recreating the past! Recorded probably the beginning of 2007

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
I hesitate to upload this, but there are a couple folks around who like this sort of thing. This is an edited down version of a jam I had with myself back at the end of 2007. Live to 2 tracks with the aid of the Jamman. I think it was the first…
Another cut from the 1988 cassette tape of a live performance by Scartaglen on the NPR show Mountain stage. This time some tunes from County Kerry.
Kirk Lynch- Uilleann pipes and whistle. Becky Pringle- Fiddle. Mike Dugger- Fiddle and guitar…
Another Live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen back in 1988 on the NPR show Mountain Stage. This time a piece of Gaelic mouth music followed by 3 reels. Maybe the most complex arrangement of a set of tunes that we ever did.
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.

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
I enjoyed the recording on it. Gives it an old school feeling. Reminds me of recording quick tunes through the old cheap computer mics back in the day. Faved it.

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…

Walking through a new world with a new perspective; everything is a circuit; everything is infinite and electronic. Artificial things and natural things are the same.
There is nothing like the presence of a horse. The quiet understanding. The gentle strength.
Woodlake, California...1961. I had a horse. She was my friend.
There were times in my teens when Babe was the only being that did not judge me…
This one is named after the resident cat who loved me dearly when I was a visitor. Now that I've moved in I'm pretty much only good for adminstering food and occasional petting- on the cat's terms of course!
Ever have a song you know is ugly and horrific but you love anyway? This is one of those from 1997 and recorded in Cakewalk Pro Audio.
The piece is was totally improvised starting with the drum line which I had the drum machine in "learn" mode…
A classical/avantgarde piece inspired by Franz Schubert's Der Leiermann from his song cycle Winterreise. Will the hurdy-gurdy man play his songs for you?
Aarrhhh ye scurvy sons (and daughters) of sea-rats, the pesky pluckers have been at it again.
Pin back yer lug-holes or it's the plank ye'll be hoping for!
My first rejected Ramen Music submission.
Too Much
I wrote you a letter but I never sent it
I was afraid you might never get it
or what if you did and I lived to regret it
and it was just too much for me to take
now its four in the morning…

There is a video for this below
Its all a bit cliche I know - but its what I wanted to do. All of the video footage was taken by me in an undisclosed location somewhere. This is a microtonal piano improvisation that uses Lucy tuning 0b6s meantone…
Man! it's ben a long time, it's like I'm sorry
I've not had the chance to catch up with everyone
and there music. I personaly have ben going through alot of crap..I suppose that's why I made
this song, but I can't wait to hear all new and
old…
Is it incomplete? Yes... Does it need a whole lot of cleaning up? Yes... Are there lyrics? Yes... Does it need more arrangement? Yes (but that's coming with a little collaboration on the way)... So, yes the title is the actual title to…

Great sound mate very cool.
wonderful piece of music!
Some DL4 fun? Please more of this "noise"!
I don't know - boys and their toys. Still, I hear you have put them to good use. I like the Israeli feeling tempo. B
