Chris sent this track to me earlier today with the request that I add some percussion to it.
I had something different in mind.
After the first take I was afraid to return it to him, fearing that he would convert it to 23 edo or something…
Veeeeeeeeeeeeeery nice groove. Shufflin beat...slow waves to wash over you...and a gradual build in composition. It's all about the journey. Diggin' it as usual.
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…
The Seventh Rook is a piece composed for solo microtonal piano in the Rook scale commissioned by John O’Sullivan who devised the scale. Rook is a subset of Raven version temperament. More tuning information is at John’s website. The score is here…
I see your phone continues to torture you... and you wonder why I don't call. ;)
Before you completely go off the grid, text me some GPS coordinates and blaze orange a few trail markers for me. I'll be bringing some seeds, powder and percussion instruments.
we all have cover a Pink Floyd song at some point, and the only way to cover a perfect song is to make it completely different. Deep down, I think everyone was hoping the wall was not too high, and the song could end on a happy note of breaking…
Excellent work here covering the Gilmore section of vocals on this song - I always sort of hoped the song could end at this point and Pink could reconnect beyond the wall, but alas, it is not to be so.
I'm with Daisy: I particularly love the vox effects!
(Thanks Norm for a great beat i think i'm even in time here and there…. i tried ….. i've been meaning to do something with this beat ever since i first heard it …so after watching one born every minute on the TV i decided to finally try so here…
first my apologies to J. Pachabell
second, my very best wishes to all my AT friends who make sharing music here so wonderful,, hope your holiday season is most wonderful and filled with love, peace to us all r
Well, its that time of year again and all 4 of the ladies have something to say to you this Christmas. I used Wrinkled Shirt's tune, Skydroll, as a frosty backdrop and brought them all along for the sleigh ride.
In order of their appearance…

Comments on Norm's stuff
All Hallows was groovin' alright! Love the clicky bits (I know all the technical phrases, me). I defy anyone not to tap their feet to this one! Tess S
Oh Yeah! This is the stuff alright. I still got to get down to jamming on some of your grooves one of these days
Norm is brilliant, as always.
Diggin the new track Norm. Crisp tune to wake up to! Will have to listen to again when I get home.
@D: The vision of you dancing with your 4 month old to this delights me!
Can't wait to get settled into my new place and have my next studio set up so I can add to this one. (if you don't mind, that is.)
Just spent the morning dancing with my daughter to this groove. She's only four months old...but was totally movin' her feet and giggling to this.
Sweet sounding drum.
Improvin it up!!! BOO YEAH! :)
really cool, your recordings are very clear very tactile to the ear
im with it

La danza, es la clave de la felicidad. Well played Norm, gorgeous rhythm!!
oui.....brillanti......comme d'habitude....
@ Vaisvil: *La clave es la llave, la llave es la clave*.
I hear a lot of melodies in this one. All of the drums seem to speak to me. Even the clave. Perhaps I'm finally getting it?
This is were its at!! Groovy!!
I is a nice and romantic music. A lot of emprovement.
Veeeeeeeeeeeeeery nice groove. Shufflin beat...slow waves to wash over you...and a gradual build in composition. It's all about the journey. Diggin' it as usual.
Thats a fine assemblage of talents and great sounds here, good job all.

Time "trevel"! I wonder what the world would look like now if Reg & Vaisvil had actually hooked up in 1981...
Did John play this? Excellent work!
I'm with Vaisvil.

Excellent! Thanks for allowing me to be a part of this miraculous event. I love the ending!
Awesome!
Happy Baktun, to you. Happy Baktun, to you. Happy Baktun, dear Chris. Happy Baktun, to you. And many more... (Fabulous graphic)
Perfect for the morning after a projected end. Now what?
What a nice gift for all of us. Thank you Richard.
