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…

Just another obscure saint. Not much known about him. Probably much more important and significant than any of us will ever realize.
Oh, yeah, and then there is Saint Simon. Same thing for him.
RIP Alex.

Alex had a disastrous truck crash 3 weeks ago on his way back home to his loving 3 children and wife. This is a fleeting existence folks. Dance while you can.

I am heart broken to inform you that Kokou “Alex” Yemey was killed in a motor vehicle accident last Friday. The world will never again hear this genius, at least on this side of the veil. RIP my good friend...

For Improv Friday
I improvised this guitar track and recorded audio and midi (Fender Mustang + GR-20) feel free to add to this
After some editing I came up with "And No One Listens"
I used Guitar Rig 4, Kontakt (bass), hyperwave synth, True…
I was just really bored, so I decided to record this truly epic song.
Actually, funny story about how I recorded this. You know those long, black, skinny, microphones you can buy at Wal-Mart, in the computer section? Yeah, I used that, and Cubase…
Jqscutt had this guitar riff that he sent me and we worked out a song with bass, rhythm, lead and drums over the internet. I posted it for a collab for some key additions. This was added by TiS friends K-Lyd and Coruz. Later, they found Liam…

Thanks for showing us the beauty of a creature that most of us consider to be a ruthless devourer. Your tender soliloquy perhaps does the beast more than justice... I can only hope for the same.

I have a great idea up in my head
Let's try it out this afternoon
We'll tie the dog up to the sled
Pretend we're launching…
Haha! Pwnd by the phone company once again. I feel your pain. The chain saw solution caught me by surprise, but sounded effective.
It would probably be a very bad idea for you to ever collaborate with ReefWalker about this topic... he has a history of many phone problems as well.

Somebody should create an album of songs dealing with phone problems on AT - a recurring theme!
This is an orchestral piece composed in 13 note subset of 31 notes per octave called “Orwellâ€. The purpose of this piece was to study polyphonic voice leading in a microtonal context. It was realized via Sonar 8.5 and Garritan Personal Orchestra…
I read about the Duodene in Doty's book and wanted to try it. I took the opportunity of Margo's scala formatted duodene on the nonoctave forum to toss it into fractal tune smithy and improvise with the tuning.
I hope you don't find this too…
There are times, moments, sounds, shadow falls that take us to and bring us back to magical times in our lives,,,Something in this piece by Johnny Mercer & Henry Mancini,, can pull me in so many different ways,,, it's always been a favorite…

Oh, my holy noodles. *Another* bloody 12-bar in E, and what's worse, it's a *slow* blues. Every guitar player who deems it appropriate to play a slow blues in E, in this the 21st, should be roasted like a head of garlic, smeared across a toasted…

No saint, her.
Menacing.
Very clever. So what did you find under the flooring?
Sleep? We can all sleep in our graves, but for now I hope you keep jamming! Lots of potential with this one!

Excellent music, concept and production. Well done!
I don't understand it but I like it. Thanks once again for pushing the envelope for me.

There's no love like rock-n-roll love. Nice work!
Beautiful.
Yes, I had never heard of that either. Well done!
Mindbending.
Delicious! But then I love garlic... Well done!
