Start of this reminds me of the music/sound effects from Dead Space the game. Sweet! Its like being lost in an endless void with nowhere to go. But if that was the case and this was playing, Im pretty sure I would be OK :)
A long meditation/wank.
This weeks guitar lesson we started looking at melodic minor modes. I went home and started practicing scales. Wasn't long before I got stuck on Dorian flat 2. So I fired up the looper and recorded a session.
Funny…

Today I gave a quickie demo of Live to my guitar instructor. I started with an empty set and threw some crap at the wall just to show him one of the work flows.
Later, when I brought the thing home I couldn't leave well enough alone and started…
Another track without a plan. I was supposed to be doing something else, but I was stalling...
Electronically, I used only Ableton instruments on this one in the effects stew I used Eos, Replicant, BigSeq2, and LiveCut in addition to the Live…
To everyone missing.

I found silver in your mouth
on a holiday
found stories in your eyes
beautiful as mould
6000 miles away
I finally recalled
the secrets on your skin
in scars and birthmarks
open wounds
secret stories of…
After I read into RPM and understood that anybody could take the challenge, I joined up. I'm starting with a clean slate, so I hope I can finish! This a WIP of the first tune I'm working on. Everything I do will be recorded/produced with the Boss…
Thanks to Mike Brown for lending a hand with the lead parts.. despite trying his damnedest not to! Also thanks for MMI for the advice which in part at least, I took!

Worked on this track for a *long* time. Learnt a lot but it's time to call it done and move on to something else. Am pretty happy with it all in all.
Sounds include samples of me clapping and the Snowdon steam train heavily processed with Ableton…
just finished this one, represents a slightly new direction i am taking i think.
i am particuarly proud of the polyrhythmic sound i achieved. i was worried it mite become too cluttered (at the beginning) but i think i achieved clarity.

Live performance from "Zodiacrobatic", Hybrid Groove Project's remix of "Tierkreis" (Zodiac) by Karlheinz Stockhausen. Brian Sacawa and I performed this, our version of Leo, on our Mobtown Modern series in May 2009. The complete "Zodiacrobatic…
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode
I made this simple song to try out playing an acoustic guitar with an ebow. It works, but it's quite quiet. The movement of the fingers on the fretboard is louder than the sounds. I didn't use any effects on the guitar tracks.
I recorded my voice…

I like it.

I almost got into a dream like state. Awesome song man!
Every time I listen to your music, I gotta start recording. Sorry to comment twice. :D
nice. I like this a whole bunch.
Pretty cool.
Appropriate title. It's always difficult to find the right words and this music worked perfectly.
I haven't yet told you how sorry I am... And this is a beautiful tribute to a genuine emotion, captured painfully well.
We have just lost someone we thought was a friend - poignant piece, it makes me want to weep. Thank you!
Cool sounds man! Gotta love new toys
Well done, from the heart. Let their memory live on in this.
Oh Yea, the new gadgets and gizmos paid off nicely. ~Geas
Kick ass!!!! This is great.
Melancholy and touching.
Really sorry for your loss. This is a beautiful expression of how you feel
Definitely diggin this.
Underwater conference!
Some very cool sounds you've come up with here!
All lovely and bubbly!

Superb!
Swoon.
Welcome to the party. Interesting limitation(?) you've chosen.
Awesome song.
Tapped out! Super cool. If you don't mind the comparison, sounds very Trey Gunn (which is a good thing).
Yeah, I'd have trouble sleeping too with musical ideas like this.
Very well done. Somebody should warn those Kraftwerk dudes that you're coming for them.
Very cool.
*Love* it.
Is this at all inspired by the TV show? Cause it certainly fits.
Dudes. Nice frickin' porch. Wish I was there.
Wish I was there to see this.
I love the changes. (Man I still have so much to learn.)
yay for warts; felt like I was there
Really digging the vibe of your recent stuff.
Don't you hate it when somebody walks in in the middle of a take? :-) So realistic I jumped.
Astonishing. Love the video too.
yeah man. can hardly wait for the savaging.
Hahaha, awesome. Brings me back to my time listening to Bill Bruford's Earthworks.
A thing of beauty. Few write changes like this anymore.
