Another one from back when I was tracking to actual tape. Was going to do a new version at some point, but decided I had lost interest. Sometimes there's no sense in recreating the past! Recorded probably the beginning of 2007
...nice energy here, man. I like the freshness I pick up in much of what you are writing/performing.
Thanks for your interest/comments. Maybe we can colab. on something some time soon.
Peace- kss
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

So, while tinkering in your shop you spy the new H4 sitting there, beckoning. You grab the guitar and spontaneously generate this very pretty thing, to break in the H4. It's another impressive performance! To respond to your question... I plan to be here, at least to listen to the great music. Barriers to recording include all the usual, oceans, stubborn equipment, yada yada. Eventually, there will be more music.
Just one of those passing moods. Just finished today - august 2 2009. I resisted the temptation to try to develop it any further and just let it be what it is
Kirk, thanks so much for your nice comment. I miss hanging out with all my friends that were in this band, but I must admit I miss working Chris Mitchell the most. His guitar playing was top notch & always surprised me in really cool ways. One of the hardest parts about leaving Dallas for Tennessee was ending that musical collaboration that had been ongoing for nearly a decade...
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…

I hesitate to upload this, but there are a couple folks around who like this sort of thing. This is an edited down version of a jam I had with myself back at the end of 2007. Live to 2 tracks with the aid of the Jamman. I think it was the first…

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.
"Afoxe" is a rhythm played by carnival groups from Bahia in Northeastern Brazil. It is named after an instrument that is traditionally used to play this pattern: an afoxe is a beaded gourd; aka "shekere". In this rendition, I replaced the shaker…
Recorded and mixed by Joe Silence at Spit Recorders in 1998.
I deny any responsibility for the lyrics.
Tom Higgins - vocal
Joe Silence - guitars, bass and foley

I would do a new mix of this (to remedy…
I'm getting sick of the same old chords.
LYRICS:
I'm retarded
I'm a stooge
I can keep myself amused
Have a hand in
my abuse
Set a spark and light the fuse
I'm retarded
I am rude
I am average
I'm obtuse
We don't use that word…
This was recorded starting in March of 2010 so I could experiment with some new recording software, and it eventually evolved into what you're hearing.
A basic surf tune inspired by, well, night surfing. I was going for a happy loneliness with…
Written/Recorded: December 25, 2010
Not really finished, not even sure what it is. I jst felt like playing some loud guitar...

For us, the boring adults realists, such a story is ridiculous, but not for them - for children who listen to tales with bated breath. For them…

Daytime and night direction of the senses are different, and not only with increased perception, but also with some distortion of reality. Voices of the previous thousands of years?

Nice and fresh sense of development here, man. Thanks for the kind comments earlier. ks
This whole jam is great, I really dig your style of playing on this piece, and I especially love the lick about 2:40 or so... so smooth...
beautifully done!
