@Bee: I believe that you are referring to the first 3 off-beats of the measure, which are played on a wood-block heavily distorted with "gated reverb"... but I've never heard a chicken that sounds like that! :)

Wonderful Norm just wonderful.....I feel blessed....I've got my headphones on and Sebastian asleep in his crib beside me.......and have too keep taking them of because I'm sure he's crying in time ....very effective
A 3 track improvisation on 7 congas roughly tuned by ear to a chromatic scale.
LYRICS:
I walked a mile with Pleasure;
She chatted all the way;
But left me none the wiser
For all she had to say.
I walked a mile with Sorrow,
And ne…

Here's proof. Proof that things are a bit mysterious in my studio.
Late last night my Bass Cajon all of a sudden decided to start accompanying me on its own - without me touching it. At first I thought that some apparitional bass player had…

You're just kidding yourself if you thought I could resist the chance to add a bit of percussion to this wonderful song by Osckilo & Launched. I used Paiste Sound Discs to create a 3vs.4 polyrhythm against the delightful underlying 4/4 Spanish…

Artist's description:
Forgive me my voice!
This may be the most difficult vocal part I have written and tried to sing - but the vocal dissonance IS intentional.
Everything here (except vocals of course…
To the Wind baby!
Thanks for the vocal on this Mark bro!
You inspiered a band name....

This was Done on Logic.. Hope Y'all like it.

I loaded Sonar with a couple audio tracks + echo and recorded my wife's seagull acoustic via a dean markley soundhole pickup.
After the take I multiplied a couple times and edited a touch.
This is really just a test for a planned piece like…
3 guitar tracks followed by a track with the trap set. A lot of alt tuning lately posted on AT which I like. This guitar was tuned to an open G. After I did it, I thought the sound was more like a backwoods, hillbilly song.
Unfortunately…
I apologize for not listening much hear to other people's music lately. I do have an excuse because this week we have moved to a new home which has taken up lots of my time - and right now we are in the new location but living with lots of boxes…
this was originally a song about breaking through paradigms but turned into a song about a girl.
Keys and string samples from Korg, MIDI with the old Ensoniq,
one diving board.
Thanks for the listen ,enjoy... RW
a collaboration of Alister Flint - Carlo Serafini - Chris Vaisvil
so, Chris did this. Carlo did that. and i added some. for the technical stuff, see below. :)
This piece uses multiple tunings simultaneously and is the inaugural…
This is a chord progression I found when waiting for Debbie to come home.
Left channel is a piano voice via GR-20, right channel my Mustang's own voice through the DOD FX-7
Any collaboration would be welcome.
Everyone has a first time....
This is an "out-take" from the You EP. Written in 2000 it was not finished as far as it is until 2005. Being lazy I just adapted the original rough take I made so I would not forget the song.
There are a few electric…
This is a short soft Jazz piece I found while playing through a few chords this evening.
Guitar split (GR-20) left and right + (GR-20) sax.
Maybe a certain percussionist might join in when he can?
Trax in Space appeared to be shutting down - so this was a musical interpretation of the pending demise. As it turned out TiS is still struggling to breathe => not too unlike those smokers on oxygen you see in anti-smoking ads.
The Wife is a self confessed “Not a morning personâ€.....
I am a morning person (well... Wake up happy person).... and so is the boy....
This causes some friction sometimes.... LOL!!!!!!!

Ojalá (If only) it's a cover of Sebastian Santa Maria's original song.
For me it's a great honor recording this cover of this fabulous Chilean artist.

Vox, instruments = Me :0)

Love that rhythm Norm! What's the 3 repeated, quiet scraping sounds made by? Sounds a bit like a chicken! Interesting!
Wonderful Norm just wonderful.....I feel blessed....I've got my headphones on and Sebastian asleep in his crib beside me.......and have too keep taking them of because I'm sure he's crying in time ....very effective
If I could play drums like this my rhythm tracks would be much better. Enjoy just sitting back and listening to the many tones and varied rhythms.
thanks Norm - I bet Francis would have loved the persistent introspection of this groove! "..illumina le tenebre de lo core mio...
Excellent organic percussion! Solid gold.
Very, very interesting and addictive pattern here Norm.
Thanks Norm!!
thanks for the listen and rating!
I hear that
Very cool! I can explain the beer being gone!!
Oooo, 2.30 ish the little bit of quiver comes in. Nice! And, gets louder. Like it!
"4" does it for me. I like the, "I mean business" beats.
Ive done a collab with Mark , but never Tharek , this is a dream team , your percussion fits like a glove with this amazing song , i love it
I don't understand the Math behind it but I know it sounds Amazing! It is impressive the story you are able to tell with beats bro.
Very cool groovin' man
This is great mate really cool.
Dandy beat...I sort of got lost in it.
I like this just as a rhythm, mellow
Lovely swaying rhythm, O King of Ze Beats!
