Sam was a very articulate and kind friend; he spend way too much of his life in a wheel chair and yet demonstrated a lot of grace.
We lost him just over a year ago.
Among many other unexpected, Christ-like kindnesses, he realized at one point…
Cool bouncing groove, with interruptions that are so interesting they almost interrupt my breath - slippery punchy syncopated chords - all kinds of melody everywhere - the way the sounds sit in and around each other - really, really fun!
Thanks, bro.
Everything I do is recorded with a Boss Micro BR, either plugged in to the guitar jack or using the built in mic for acoustic/vox. Sometimes I'll upload the tracks to audacity for further mixing, but not very often.
This is a track from my abandoned "Weekend Follies" album, which was recorded in my parent's basement in Mercer Island, Washington during the summer of 2003.
for REALZ, this is way far from being done. this is an oldie from a previous duo I was in, VC Andrews, (http://www.myspace.com/vcandrews) and i wanted to give it new life. Listen to the old version at the myspace page to hear how it's going to…

The last of my traditional Irish tunes for now...I learned both these tunes on my Kirk Lynch uilleann pipes when I had them - now I just play them on guitar best I can.

Compositionally this song started out with the drum pattern and grew from there. I'm not sure why I chose the title 'Mad Man' but in some ways I thought it was fitting.
Anyway, this song is dedicated to crazy geniuses whose academic work is…
I'm learning to 'listen' to the 'flow' of life all around me and not get so caught up in little things that don't really matter.
Learning to enjoy! Life is good...
The river runs
and i look into it
i see myself
in a million faces there…
My first composition that uses an odd time signature for a few measures. My drum fills are also more elaborate. It's just a little tune to bob your head to, tap your toe, you know, the good stuff!
This song is a tribute to the space monkeys named Albert. They all died tragic deaths of various kinds during their forced service to the American space program.
So i sat in my room one day incense burning, with my $100 pawn shop 2nd hand bass guitar which i painted white with the same paint as my walls and i turned the reverb on full and started doing volume swells with the knob on my guitar.. i sat for…
This is a remix of Mason Proper's tune Safe for the Time. Check out their other music here:

It is a dark piece of Basic Channel techno dub-itude
This song was made by two different piano samples (both
from Sudara):
1. One was recorded by Sudara (and gang?) axing away at a hapless old piano in New Mexico.
2. today, I convinced Sudara to noodle on the piano and send it over to me…
Thanks, man. Let's do it when you can. Where are you heading?
Best; safe travels (Hmm? By the way, might you know Steve Tibbett's record of the same name [safe travels]?)
Just a spontaneous (and very rough) two hour tune. Written and recorded yesterday, edited and mixed today. I might as well get it uploaded now because I'll be spending the next two weeks preparing to move across the country.

So glad you kept it simple...a touching tribute.
Mysterious butter! And now I feel odder than I already do.. :) Killer track!
I might as well favorite everything you do. This one's a real interesting listen. Nice groove and energy with wonderfully beautiful dissonance.

Another Beauty man!
brings me memories of some retro film noirs from the 50s - and the mismatch with the kid(?) voice is excellent..
