My first attempt at a Blumlein or Mid/Side recording. This one is actually a mid/side recording as I used a directional mic in combo with a figure 8 ribbon mic set at 90 degrees from the main mic. Thanks to Pat Broaders for the loan of the ribbon…
I really love your sound and playing here. This will be my bench-mark. I will work on my acoustic and try to reach a height such as this, Your song will be my constant inspiration. Thank you good sir. It may take me a while, but your playing here has inspired me.
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

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…

Archival stuff from my distant past with former bandmates in Scartaglen. A set of traditional Irish tunes. Rescued from a cassette tape done at a concert back in the early 90's. Myself on Uilleann pipes and whistle. Mike dugger on guitar and fiddle…

Had these backing tracks laying around on my drive for a while and didn't know what to do with them, so grabbed my Ebow and a fretless electric that I built for myself a couple years ago and had a go. My fretless playing is really in its infancy…
Really fun to listen to as well. Can imagine that fretless is hard to master, but you've sure done it. Fretless+ebow seems like a winning combo in your hands !!

Some friends throw other friends going away parties.
Songwriting friends say "hey, what a great idea for a song."
Tech notes:
I've been losing my voice today and ended up having to go back and do retakes to try to get as close to on-pitch as…
Some experimentation that started with sandbags saying that he was looking for a wood sound. I responded with marimba plus monster reverb... and I quickly noodled together an ambient thing.
I wondered aloud whether I was done or should continue…
Slack key guitar and baritone ukulele.
Hula version.
Pauoa Liko Ka Lehua is about the beautiful flowers (Lehua) of Pauoa. The double entendre (kaona or hidden meaning) involves a girl with swaying hips.:)
This is great. It's like it can't decide if it's Jazz or 20th century classical. Reminds me a bit of the first Mahavishnu record without the frantic aspect. That's it- I'm swiping some chord voicings from you for new inspiration
Originally this piece was written for a guitar. But I love my R3 so much! I'm playing with it. So this piece is just an electronic version. As always, all sound patches were programmed by me.
Alright, so it turns out that I lied.
THIS song is actually #60 of 2009. I forgot about how I turned the instrumental "lucid traum" into the spoken word 'drama' "wake me up" for a class project.

The Polka is thought to have originated in eastern europe by the Czechs. The people of west kerry in Ireland took the polka into their heart and are renowned for their own polkas. The two polkas in this recording are known to me as "John Ryans…
Yeah, so I finally consolidated my music collection over from my other mac and found my grand total for 2009.
This is my 60th track of 2009.
I wrote my first track for a MIDI class in the fall of 1999 (did I mention I'm a 10th year sophomore…
Yeah- what Yelyah said- doesn't sound like a demo to me. I especially like those little crunchy sounding percussion parts buried back there. Nice stuff!! Wish I had your engineering chops :)
New stuff has been slow in coming for me lately, but I found this lurking on my hard drive from a while back. Frankly don't remember how I did it except that it was all live to 2 tracks and at one point one of my synth patches glitched out on…
Made this over the last couple of days. all original no samples. Done with GR20 guitar synth, GT10 pedal board and Korg emx synth.
feedback welcomed thanks
Started off with me just goofing around with Battery and a couple of other NI things (which are new to me) and grew into this...
It may still have places to go.

You were doing nice stuff even back then! Cool
Beautiful. I'm with Lalo though- I want to hear it on guitar!
Oooh- Love those chord changes! Great textures
Very cool- dig it!
Closing scene to a film- she's looking out a rain streaked window and thinking?
