This is so complex rhythmically that I don't know *how* to play along. I'm not sure if one should - it stands on its own - wow. This is a lesson here. Please send Alex my regards for his skill and sharing his cultural heritage.

Inside my heart is too.

As chance had it, I found myself in an acoustically great room, full of cajons! Well, they were unfinished cabinets actually, but they had lovely tones. Since this is the stuff dreams are made of, I had no choice but to seize the opportunity and…
I used about half of the tones produced in my stop sign video as samples looped in Kontakt and improvised on an 88 key controller in 17 equal notes per octave. Not something you'd listen to for enjoyment.

Great drumming. Bass drum kicking "Son clave" pattern the entire time while he works on the snare/cymbals... this is very difficult (for me) to do - probably why I don't play trap-set.
I wanted to see how much "music" I could get out of one chord and four notes. Sorry that it has a sort of cheesy 80s sound at times, but that's when I started playing guitar and it's hard to reprogram your brain. The chord is Bsus2 and the solo…
This is a recording of Norm and me playing together a few months ago. I didnt have any percussion instruments so Norm was on a Roland electric trap set and I had a cello. I looped some of the stuff we did that night, and retrofitted the rest…
Daisy and I both know that as soon as you get far enough away from the perimeter, the pain inflicted by the shock collar ceases, and is only a bad memory. A small price to pay for the freedom to run over the hills all night with the other freed pups.

I walk 13 miles of barbwire just to sing my song

I walk 65 miles all along

I love this tune, it's a little bitter but still love it :)

Alas, Richard is gone. But the remaining 3 briefly together in London at the O2 a few weeks ago: May 12. Lots of YouTube videos of it - I love the part where Waters hits the wall and it digitally disintegrates beneath Gilmour, playing the solo for "Comfortably Numb".

Comments on Norm's stuff
this is good, i really like the timing of all these nice percussions. i was tilting the whole time.
Great beat nice one. And thanks for your recent comment.
Great stuff Norm!
Alex tu m'as rappele encore les ceremonies de deces de mon pere ou le hugan a ete joue.
Still one of my favs....
Drum Man!
As for playing with it, I would say, listen to the shaker. It's keeping a steady beat most of the time.
thanks for sharing this. It's great and also educational :)

Yes, I'm loving these great pieces from Alex - Fantastic! The recording quality has been excellent along the way as well.
Rythmic genius
I really love these, well recorded also,. BTW, I cant believe you didnt keep one of the kitchen cabinets on the drum room- those sounded awesome
Spirited playing. A lesson learned for me.
amazing playing! and when closing the eyes, it transports you there right way.. excellent drums!
norm, nice one man.
Very cool!
This is great that he played this with the "tape" running! Can I use this? I would not alter it, as you mentioned it shoud'nt be.
SWEET!!!!! This are some Awesome Beats!
Wow, sharp shooting voodoo! What a treat! Thanks for sharing!
magic rhythm
Comments made by Norm
Hair raising!
Nice playing Chris!
Diggin' out some of the older ones! Spring Cleaning? My how things have changed...
I remember that!
Beautiful Richard!
Lovely!
Very revealing!
If things start to look like that while one is driving, I would suggest pulling over and calling a cab!
Ha! I guessed it before seeing the video!
Are you actually bowing a stop sign??
Great drumming. Bass drum kicking "Son clave" pattern the entire time while he works on the snare/cymbals... this is very difficult (for me) to do - probably why I don't play trap-set.
Great club song.
Many times less is more. It's amazing how much you got out of so little. Sounds great.
Lovely!
Paulstretch?? Sounds like the sound was stretched. Cool!

I believe that Reefwalker is just demonstrating his mathmatical skills... but I'm sure that 52 miles of barbwire walking feels like 65. :)

Somno project?? No. Bien despierto ... y sonriendo.
Rage! (Oh, and I for one am very happy that you disregarded that dark advice.)
