At the end of this road
Red rock and blue skies
And the wind calls
Plant your roots in the ground
And the clean air that the trees share
You can't hear a sound
Deep in the heart of it all
Morning dew at the sunrise
Covered in fog
Fires…
2010 24 hour challenge. Record a 24 minute song in less then 24 hours.
Work has been so crazy music has been taking a back seat. I might have to try this concept again to get anything done on the creative side of things. :)

So Jim of "Movement to Contact" asked me a couple of weeks ago to send him something...
I had no idea how ridiculously good the final result would come out.

What happened after too much time on youtube watching live vids of "voodoo chile" Noisy obnoxious and very cathartic for me! Live to 2tracks with the Jamman
The complete "how to" article and online play back is on my blog http://chrisvaisvil.com/?p=404
Yesterday I was able to capture the Fractal Tune Smithy midi stream of an "on the fly" relay re-tuned performance in Sonar 8.5 by use of LoopBe1…
My first attempt at a Blumlein or Mid/Side recording. This one is actually a mid/side recording as I used a directional mic in combo with a figure 8 ribbon mic set at 90 degrees from the main mic. Thanks to Pat Broaders for the loan of the ribbon…
Thanks Kirk! I've been messing with that wah tone for a while. I am using my POD XT live, i think it has...5 wah varations? Something like that, and I had one set up for my main guitar a Jackson Dominion (sweet guitar i love it), and when i went to play the lead i thought, well i just got that strat copy lets give it a whirl. I was shocked how those little pickups blasted into the mix. Pretty neat! I guess you can never judge a guitar by the brand name...just the sound. Later!

For everyone who lives in a bright sunny place. Got lots of snow in the mountains today.
On days like these, there are only 4 things to do:
1)start fire
2)shovel snow
3)Make music (inside, not on deck)
4)access EWABS (emergency wine and beer…
I know i know...i really need to get one up....upload a song with a new axe and don't post a pic?!?! what the hell is wrong with me!!!!Happy new year bro!!!
Thanks man! Your stuff is so intense...only way I can describe it...it's real and true to you. A very unique approach your guitar and the music that you generate. I reminds me a lot of something my father told me, he said he never "wrote" a song...well never sat and wrote it out...he would be sitting there or sleeping and it like a radio station turned on...tuned him into a certain channel and he would just write..I get the same thing...and something about your music tells me you do to. Thanks for the listens and comments...I am a fan ;)
Thanks dave! For a project guitar it has a pretty good sound. A little short in the pickup selector and buzz on the middle pickup but for what I paid not to shabby!
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…
"High Life" is a musical genre that originated in Ghana in the 1900s and spread to Sierra Leone, Nigeria and other West African countries by 1920. My friends from that part of the world consider this be the "go-to" rhythm for just about anything…
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…

Dig this one!
Nice track, great voice. Mixed well, i will have to jam this on some better speakers. ;)
Yet another good one. I love how you always post the style and a bit of history with each track. It always helps me understand the song better.
Kick ass. Almost has an early soundgarden esque fell to it.
Happy holidays man!
