Time Keeper
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
From a minimalistic beginning this grows into well orchestrated piece. I like it.
An excellent compilation of tunes Kirk, and not only enjoyed by me, but my son also enjoyed your music too. :)
Kirk, I like how you make it up, ( the last three words would be italicised if I could) What I mean is, you pull these songs out of a moment. And get to go someplace new and different. Getting to go there vicariously we ride along. Those are the moments we who play,sing write live for: when we touch into the other places. I admire how you find your self there. Does your world around you get what you do? And, thanks for your comments. And and, yeah, I realized Underneath My Skin had about 30 seconds of silence magically appended to it. My computer has had a ghost in the machine ever since the dread virus/trojan horse of February trashed its way through it. It's healed, but still has nightmares I guess. I'm pushing Steve my collaborator to get together again for some real sessions, so we can finally finish that song, and figure out what to do with the really great stuff we weren't able to get to in the RPM.
-nice; ...cinematic somehow, no? Thanks for listening to mine and for the comments; a good day to you!
one cool groove. Low plucking guitar in time with ticking clock is sweet. You can tell an interesting story with your playing.
I wish I could make a kickbut western cowboy film, this song would go verywell with a showdown:)
he is on the job. a dusty trail that leads to a million nowheres. somewhere out there, the hacker wreaks havoc on another outpost. he is on the trail. he is on the hunt. the hacker cannot escape this time. the cyber cowboy tilts his hat. he licks his lips. this one is coming down. it will be a good day. skillfully played cyber-western-electronica. 0x0
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? ;)
digital metronome noise kills me. it's sort of like a less irritating alarm clock, and if there is any single noise that totally destroys my happiness it's alarm clock buzzing. other than the metronome, though, this song is awesome. it's very unique, though i'm trying to pinpoint something it sounds similar to. i don't know if it's the reversed guitar that gives off a robert fripp vibe, or if i'm just projecting that because of your electric guitar jams cover. either way, i dig the music. i'm listening to 'sunday afternoon' now. you're an accomplished guitar player. i really love the subtlety and texture of the synth noise, or whatever is going on in the background. this is all great so far.
...cool, Kirk; 'here to check your stuff more carefully now. Thanks, by the way, for checking out my stuff and for the comments; Bless your day.
Every time I listen to this, I fall in love with this track all over again! I hear so many different genres in the piece. I LOVE that kind of work!
Kirk, thank you so very much for your support! It means so much to us! I LOVE your work! wendy
For doing everything in the box this sounds great! I'm not sure if the metronome fits but that adds to the beauty of it. Really nice guitar work and I like how the song builds!
oh this is nice! I really like it as it builds from around 01:15....01:45..and then the melody at 02:00 is great
Very cool song!
Beautiful! Conjures up wonderful images of plotting an escape, but knowing all the while that the clock is ticking, and it's all just an illusion.
lovely use of the metronome "repetative clicks", cool, soft guitars and air strings like the echo fade out really num
