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…
Straight ahead stone city electric blues for an old friend who used to spend hours spinning BB King and Mike Bloomfield records for me. Recorded back sometime at the end of 2006 on old analog equipment

You Have hit close to home with this beauty track. I just had to put my old dog (16y) and old cat (17y) down the same week, about a month ago. It is still raw with me. this song soothes my mind. Really lovely and recorded so well.
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…

Very emotional in its own way. Those added "bends" tell a story about being blind-sided and trying to maintain composure in a topsy-turvy world. Or...it could just be a demo of a new technique. ;)

I 2nd the request for a video. I'm assuming you are pushing the slide off the bridge toward the neck - correct? I've net ever heard of someone putting the slide on the picking hand before - but it sure sounds great!! Beautiful piece of work here Kirk!!

Awesome. I hadn't read the description and couldn't figure out what was going on here. Very David Gimour in both tone and quality. Would love to see a glimpse of what you're doing.

Blues Guitar for Christmas as a metaphor for saying farewell to the outgoing something (sound cool, eh?). P.S. Nothing to do with my favorite Michael Brook album with the same title - Cobalt Blue.

Welcome to your first lesson in post-apocalyptic ballroom dancing for Martians and Manhunters alike. The track is not really cha-cha, but more like futurejazz, or 1960s mood music done by robots and mutants. 1-2-cha cha cha!
First draft in 2006…
So I just figured out that the EXS24 sampler instrument in Logic Pro (the DAW I use) can also import SoundFont2 files, which I happened to have a bunch of from a previous life as a Cakewalk user. All the tracks in this tune were played using old…
Dedicated to my friend Paul Lennon.
Once You asked me
If I could see the end
It's okay to tell the truth
I don't want you to pretend
And I said I would not lie
But I don't believe it ends
It goes on And on Forever Forever
It goes on…
“my jetpack” a floaty, atmospheric type piece.
Notes:
I’m not thrilled with the strings (the part that only shows up once in the piece). I need to blend them more. They’re too abrupt.
I think the “percussion” may get too loud towards the end…
I came up with the main bass riff on my electric bass, but after recording it I was unhappy with the tone, so I used a sampled upright bass. On top of that is a layer of doodling "lead guitar" (played on my bass), a dreamy semi-harsh organ sound…
This is a bonus track as it didn't make the album
For those of you who know my stuff - does this sound like it works? or is it too much like filler - the vocals are effected, there's a drum loop - the guitar is just chopped out of a jam - i…
lullaby featuring piano (but of course!)
Notes:
Today I learned how to add an insert effect to the master channel. The song was way quiet so it got boosted via a limiter. Hurray.
Right then, for the last few days I have been playing with a new program. ableton live 8. very different from what I have been using and am still trying to get it all sorted. This is my first effort with it and also my first ever go using vst…

Comments on kirklynch's stuff
great sound and playing, must try that since I have a pair of matched condensers.
This one is on my iPod.
Nicely played. I keep hearing BB King lyrics over it. Except when Clapton takes the stage.
I like the sustained feel on this one - and the melodic integrity - just perfect blues!
Sweet tone on that guitar! Nice.

Your stuff seems to getting more adventurous and progressive, and I really like it. Why no thumbs up icon?
Really nice work!
This mix's well with red wine Merry Christmas
Really beautiful here, Kirk! Thanks as always for taking the time to listen.
:) me like
This is very good. P.S. I'd really love to hear you do something with a heavier Sabbathy/AIC-type riff underneath.
I like when people sneak in 9th's and diminished whatchamacallims . . . fingers in strange places + cool solo = awesome song.

So nice i had to listen again...man your guitar sounds sweet in this one
That is really cool. Your gonna make millions. Let me know when they are ready for shipping.
