Last of the archives for now. A set of reels from the Last Nights Fun album. I did pipes, whistle and guitar on the last tune in the set. There's a live version of this up here too. This is the studio cut

Also from the "Last Nights Fun" album. This tune was written by Mike Dugger who played mando and fiddle. I think we did a really nice job of arranging this tune in retrospect. Roger Landes on guitar in the first half. I think I did the bouzouki…
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

More from the archives. This was the opening cut on Scartaglen's 1986 album "The Middle Path". A double jig, a slip jig, and 2 reels. I played bouzouki and Uilleann pipes on this cut

Title track from the Scartaglen album of the same name. There is also a live version of this up here. Oddly enough the live version of the set actually has the tune called Last Nights Fun, but for some reason we couldn't get that to work in the…
More from the way back machine. A set of polkas from the 1992 Scartaglen album "Last Nights Fun". Former band mate Mike Dugger wrote the first 2 tunes and I can't remember where we got the last tune. There is a live version of this up here. This…

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

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!

Wow Kirk, this is just incredible. I need a pint of Harp to go with it.
Oooooh! May I have this??
Now that has me jigging about the kitchen this morning
You're sure right about the arrangement -- it's perfect. A really sweet tune.
Kirk, I really love this one, especially Jezaig. Those guitars - Just phenomenal!
Skill, beauty and atmosphere. Wonderful stuff. Bee
Wow! This is the real deal!
I can see one huge downloadfest in my future.
I demand more archives immediately.
This is a treat to listen to this morning!
Now that gets my energy flowing!!!! Time for a Sunday morning dance
Loved from the first few seconds. Always class!
(Pipes and whistles are my fave bits.)
Coolinfinity. Such masterful musicianship!
Oh my!!!!!!! More please.
Great to listen to your pipes and whistles again Kirk!
Excellent great sound
Very cool

Another beauty!

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!
