This salty man's a salty dog
His travels have left him weary
Got boots all lined up at the door
He's must be carrying stones again...
His salty wife waits on salty shores
Tending the child she carries
Washing his wounds with olive soap…
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…
Listening to all your stuff (after your clear out) while I'm working. This one really jumped out at me and brought me over to comment (loving it all though!)
Some people talk to me
Ask me what I do for a living
Use some rocks to grind my grain
Little bit of whiskey to tickle the brain
Valley fever giving me rest
Smokestack choked out to my west
Drink a little of the H2O
Give it a little…
How long we've been waiting for this storm to end
Said we might go
Where the winds they do blow
Full steam ahead the blind captain said
Might take some time now
We might windup dead
Just bury those bones along that 2 note transfer…
As slowly I recall
These letters sent to you
As all things come to pass
I anticipate that I'll leave
This world for a new
Waiting for the letters that you'll send
Civil War
At 300 strong
Into the heart of Dixie we roam
We might be…
This salty man's a salty dog
His travels have left him weary
Got boots all lined up at the door
He's must be carrying stones again...
His salty wife waits on salty shores
Tending the child she carries
Washing his wounds with olive soap…
Whispers for dark words in my subconscious
The belief that reality doubles with your delusions
A thought that a handshake was once considered currency
Or a realization that man is the only predator you fear
Radioactive soul
Ain't got nothin…
Here comes the rush
You feel it in your bones
And when your bones are crushed
You feel it in your soul
You just cant escape it
Its everywhere you go
Turn round and face it
Tell everyone you know
Ah, the rush
You've missed so much
Here comes…
Samples used in this tune from the NY subway this summer. Inspired by Dave Dunseath
3-12, just uploaded a new version of this with guitar- and some other changes
Sorry it took so long to comment back man. We took a few days off and checked out a few ghost town mines by Silverton. Killer song, really enjoyed it, and plan to hit it up again tonight as I become acclimated after sleeping at 9,000 plus for a few nights....to post more on your track in a few hours ;)
Inspired by the french movie titled "The Element Of Crime." This is basically a night in the studio for some musical therapy via studio jam with myself.
Rehearsal take from our trio. This was the first time we played through anything together, so there is a lot of cool potential with this and we'll keep trying. Hope everyone enjoys it.

Another one from my ambient crackpot series.
This features two instances of my new instrument the Novaphone 340 Imperial. A grand name for a grand instrument (Xylo just didn't do it justice).
The first Novaphone is playing three samples…
After almost 3 months of work (collectively throughout this entire year) I've been working on something, really really working on something. I mean REALLY working. Now... a few months AFTER the 25th anniversary, I give you, The Legend of Zelda…
Sometime yesterday, sandbags posted "In the Ocean of Night".
Fuelled by a lovely walk and some pints, I was inspired to make some additions.
Technical/process details:
Guitar was my Michael Kelly going into GT-10 which had compressor, delay…
I stole this corny song from some kid on youtube:

I had to get it out of my head. Now hit pause and go play the real corny song by some kid on youtube. Then it will be stuck in your head and you…

On a brisk autumn evening, in front of the Weather Channel, fast asleep, my dog and I dreamed up this song.

I did this weeks ago & then found it again last night as I was archiving old files. This is one of those one-off improv sessions... I recorded the rhythm guitar in one pass, then one "lead" pass and then one vocal pass, and done. Even the…
Thanks! Glad you like my loops....I don't usually mess with them too much, but I had some fun with those two song.
As for 17,000 years I've been jammin it for a few days now. If you can't find the chords it's cool I will figure something out. It will be a bit before I give it a try. ;)

here's the lyrics:
I am looking forward to the day

Pretty cool tune man!!
Absolutely stunning. Always been a fan of jazz.
Awesome! Nice and laid back. Love the kind of spacey vibe to the chorus. Also sounds like it could be a good tune for a mobster movie.
Hahaha FIRST...!!!
Sounds like the cops are after me, kept looking over my shoulder ;)
Loved it man, as you know I am a fan of Zelda. Glad to see you posting again, and keep on nailing down the gaming genre.
Nice collab. Very cool sounds flowing around in it.
Very nice! Killer groove.
Nice one Alex.
