reminds me of backpacking from Lake Acoose across MacGillycuddy's Reeks into the Valley of the Eyes terminating in the Black Valley. I accomplished this alone and heard the Banshee in the Black Valley before the magic Killarney National Forest swallowed me.

WOAH! I get entranced by this kind of sound. It reminds me of the sensation I get with the didgeridoo. Monotonal foundation... it evokes a meditative state. Everything surrounding me can be moving rapidly but this sound slows down that internal clock.. ephemeral moments become everlasting... It moves melodically exactly when in needs to, and your pipe performance is just leaves me in awe. Thanks for uploading this amazing tune.

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
Ooh, gorgeous flowing guitar work... for some reason it reminds me a bit of a cross between Micheal Hedges and Ottmar Liebert!? Always wonderful when something is played skillfully enough to sound effortless :-)

it is a breathlessly beautiful dancer of Spain. she dances in a courtyard of jasmine. flowers lit by moonlight. it is a dance never forgotten. music to touch the soul.

the first multi track piece that I actually finished "in the box" in Cubase. An ambient kinda thing that grew out of playing around with the Line 6 DL4. Not sure I like the bow parts, but I may re do it later
The varying parts in this are tasty. Is it e-bow by chance, or volume pedal? Or is it simply that you play the gtr far better than I could ever hope to? ;)
Kirk I've really enjoyed going through your ambient stuff (and also your bluesy stuff!) I can decide between this one and Ambient experiment 2. They're both delicious.
It's not unusual to chase your girl around with a dull axe, is it? Just kidding - This was 60 tracks and almost a year to finish. I had some help:

Fadeout Solo: Gnasty
Acoustic/Rhythm Guitars: Me

It's us playing with words and instruments doing some magic! No skills, some drugs here.

I like to jam with my buddy Chris, but he gets tired after just a few songs. One day, on his way out the door I started playing this (the original chorus was: Chris is pussin out, he is going home . . .)

Zona (Russian word for 'zone') was inspired by Andrei Tarkovsky's movie Stalker where the protagonist takes his guests to a 'forbidden zone' to experience glimpses of an alternative reality.
This song is pretty much how I feel on most days . . .

Today, the Ableton folks surprised us all with the release of 8.2 which came with a new plugin called Amp. Of course, that meant a bunch of presets to explore...
Without aiming to do anything, I happened on these four presets (played simultaneously…
Came up with this Before bed last night.
Had to record it this morning so I wouldn't forget the Sound of it...

I'll do a better version when I have more time...
Well.... Off to work for me...
This is…
What can I say? well, thanks for the comments! It still amzes me that my solitary style (when the whole song is me myself and I) makes it over to you all. And that you "get" what I try to do in the arranging, that it's ok to emphasize the mood…
The next step in the progression of this song... It still needs quite a bit of cleanup (and some extra arranging), but it's getting there.
Hey, everyone writes songs about falling in love (which for me was, like, seventeen years ago), so I thought…

Portland, Oregon earns its reputation for being a rainy city through its behavior in the winter season when the sky is cloudy and precipitous almost every day. The rest of the year, it's gorgeous and…

Experimenting with the bass sound in this track is what made bass the focus of my RPM album, where previously I hadn't given much thought to bass tone.

WOW GREAT SOUND!!!!! A nice travel to a forest place... rained... but warm
Very cool! Love the sound of it.
My 1-year old daughter, Jasmine, is absolutely spellbound by this. It's such a joy to see - her eyes couldn't be any wider.
beautiful and inspiring!
I love it. What a great instrument.
I've always liked the sound of those pipes and this is a great showcase for your playing. I got visions of windswept moors and lonely seashores.
Just gorgeous.

Oh wow! Clever stuff. Speaking as a celt, this gets right into the heart. Lucky little Maggie. Very well played too.
Oh loving the Celtic vibe, Papa Kirk!
