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 !!

Fiddling around with an open G tuning and I found the chord that 'Prodigal Son' is based on (a Robert Wilkins tune from the 30s made famous by the Stones) so I had a play around with it, stopped for dinner and came back and wrote the lyrics…
Kinda cornball but what the hell. I gotta do one for the wifey every now and then.
I think my drumming hiccuped somewhere around 2:40.

This is my latest work, and first upload here! This piece was inspired after seeing The Juan Maclean. While John Maclean was setting up, I asked him if he'd DJ here (Portland, OR) someday, and I thought to myself the lines "If you spin it, they…
This piece I started work on a couple months ago. It's still in it's early stages, and needs some tweaking here and there, but I like where it's going. I wrote it while heavily into Lindstrom and Prins Thomas (and still am!). Enjoy.
Seems to be that one song everyone likes.

Stary night, the highway fades
a hundred miles and I'm on my way
I got up late
Lazy days and even crazier nights

she stuck her thumb out for me to see…
Goth/folk...Vocals and lyrics by Laura Aalto
This is a companion piece to "Vision in Silver"
From the 2009 Alchemist Corpse Rite entry in the RPM Challenge: "A True and Faithful Relation"
this is a speeded up remix of this tune i made a while ago (which is actually a remix of a remix and is now remixed.......mad eh?) improved kik performance with some new crash samples and a bit of 303... have fun num
This is a remixed version of the title track from my 2008 RPM album, to be included on an as-yet unnamed compilation album I'll be releasing later this year.
