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.
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

Ha ha, yep...well you know Kirk...me and silence have issues when I get ahold of a guitar. Maybe I should have done an acoustic version?? Now I gotta get my Jimi Jam on to break the post lunch lag!

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

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
Kinda rough. I'm uploading this mainly to share a guitar technique I've been working on. I'm wearing a slide on my picking hand and using it to alter pitches in single line phrases. There's a lot more can be done with this technique that I've…
A moody solo acoustic thing that I came up with playing in a long forgotten tuning. Just got a new Zoom H4N, so this was recorded in my shop sitting at my reedmaking bench may 12 2009

Okay I need to say a few things. Please read before listening!
I did not do the 24 hour challenge but I did try and hang around in the chatroom as much as possible with Glu, SisterS, and ChrisM while they battled through it.
At about midnight…
This will maybe sound crazy, but I can hear just adding low drone in places and then a big ominous synth wash over the top. Don't trash it- it's got a lot of possibility!

OK- I'll admit I didn't listen to the whole thing, but I did hear about 6 minutes of it and it's interesting stuff! If I knew a tithe of what you do about manipulating sounds in software I'd be a league ahead of where I am!!
NOT FINISHED. another draft. just putting it up here so that i kick myself in the pants to flesh it out and write verses and whatnot and redo everything. great!
One of four tracks I did for the August 2009 24 hour challenge. This was the last track I did, and it shows.
I was pretty tired after finishing 3am chill, and had to mess round for ages mangling loops and trying out different things before…
Recorded: August 1, 2009
Details: Epiphone Les Paul (DADGAD - capo II), Seymour Duncan Pickups, POD XT, Boss RC-20 Looper, EBow, Audacity, Sound Forge.
I've been slacking, so here's something new finally.
I left flubbed notes in this one. I hate MIDI editing in Ableton Live.
I often think of ending this affair and going back to my sweetheart, Logic.
I just couldn't sit on this anymore! This is a work in progress. I have some ideas for lyrics, but am waiting for time and inspiration to complete it.
Enjoy,
Doug
I wrote Dancing Vampires while reading the book "The Historian", which is a story of a man and his accomplices’ quest to find Dracula in present day Europe. I love history and all of its grit. This song speaks of primal human instincts. We are…
I tried so hard to write vocals for this. I even had some recorded but couldn't bear to leave them on. Anyone else wants to give it a go, let me know :)
Comments on kirklynch's stuff
My only criticism of this day in January is that it was too short. This is sublime.
Chilling out, drinking red wine, listening to tunes from the bordello. Sweet life.
Love the sense of urgency in this otherwise laid back piece. Such a classic.
awesome flow and melody on this one.
excellent as always!!! KIRK EL MAESTRO DE LAS 6 CUERDAS!!!!!
I'm a huge Hendrix person. This jam made my day! Awesome stuff!
Man oh man...one of these days I really need to talk you into playing lead on one of my tracks ;) Damn I love this track
Ha ha, yep...well you know Kirk...me and silence have issues when I get ahold of a guitar. Maybe I should have done an acoustic version?? Now I gotta get my Jimi Jam on to break the post lunch lag!
More polychords make their appearance . .. you're a sneaky composer, almost like Ralph Vaughn Williams meets Isaac Albeniz, if that makes sense.
Great guitars and chord sequences and licks.
Shades of Hackett and Gabriel but a light in it's own right.Great musicianship all round and a magical piece of wrtiting
This is a really nice song. I like the vibe....
always on my Ipod :)
You are very quickly becoming one of my favorite musicians...yes, the muse indeed...in fact, our neighbors collie passed last night...our sheltie, Emmitt, is in his last days...heartfelt kirk...merci

Gorgeousful wonderousness!

At 20 minutes now and this is brilliant!
OOOH- 5 minutes in now and enjoying it. That mood shift right before the 5 minute mark is really cool!

Great vocals. Love the textures!
Wonderful as always Lalo!
Wow- very cool stuff!
Nice one man, but no fair stealing titles from trad tunes!!
Oddly relaxing and slightly disturbing at the same time. I like it! Welcome to the site
I like how it all falls into place after the one minute mark. Nice!
This makes a damn fine instrumental just the way it is. Dig it man!!
Chill indeed! Nice! Welcome to the site
Yeah- that rocks! Welcome to alonetone!
