Rumba Columbia is a traditional Cuban pattern in 6: the "go-to" pattern for 12/8 - if you have only heard one Afro-Cuban rhythm in 12/8, this is probably it. As an energetic Afro-Cuban dance, Rumba was often suppressed and restricted because it…

This is a 3/16 Bembe on tuned congas, played with mallets. I've arranged it (at the very kind suggestion of Vaisvil & ReefWalker) in a verse/chorus/bridge/capo fashion to get away from a straight pattern - I think this sort of arrangement…

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…

This is one stereo track of 6 conga drums tuned, by ear, to roughly a chromatic scale (I don't know which one - perhaps I've gone micro-tonal!) coupled with a single track of ad-lib quinto (the high drum) and a "shuffle" groove on trap-set…

Lyrics:
There’s a pound or two of flesh in my chest yet.
It sits next to the bag that brings me my breath, yes.
A knot of muscle that flex and flex and flexes,
It’s okay—no rest (unless time requests it).
In the bowl above my eyes a gelatinous…

I purchased a Simmons drum pad today - I'm not a real drummer - please be kind. It was on sale at Guitar Center $180 + extended warranty + sticks http://www.simmonsdrums.net/sdmp1/
The synth is my Fender Mustang + GR-20
I do have video of Jacob playing the udderbot with the band - but right now I'm still putting together my gear from storage and this was the best I could do with Windows Live movie maker on my laptop.
So for now - enjoy the sound of Jacob jamming…
Great bluegrass. Great video (you seem to be getting passed more than passing...), and, of course, I had to look up "udderbot". What a cool instrument! Make your own! I am!

"Winston's Black Dog"
I could have made a great Prime Minister
Just need a good reason to be sinister
Give me an army, an enemy,
a great war --
and I'll deliver
Put me in the middle of nowhere
In the wilderness I'll survive
But in an air-conditioned…
What You Forgot is an electronics / percussion piece that uses Absynth and Dimension Pro in two different harmonic series tuning (5 limit and 7 limit). The percussion is provided by Kontakt. The piece was preformed on an AXiS 49 in one pass…
his song is just an experiment or at least started that way. Based on an "Ultrabeat" groove ( the only loops ) I added parts and sang an "Off the cuff" vocal and mixed and tweaked. Mostly Midi parts played through my cheesy Midi controller but…
Comments on Norm's stuff

Wow! Very cool rhythms!!

Thats a groovy sound for sure, I can dig this. Who would have thought the lowly tambourine would hold my attentions for so long.
This is great! It takes a special kind of healthy crazy to let it all out in a tambourine solo!
Comments made by Norm
Too much fun!
The closing round was delightful as was the udderbot in the final song. I should probably make an udderbot...
Awesome, Reg! Great collaboration betwixt a couple of AT giants!
Ah yes. 2 drummers at times! Wonderful stuff.
Superb drum work!
Excellent drummer! Totally pro.
Beautiful.
Totally pro!
This one soars.
It was only a matter of time... it pleases me that you are releasing your inner percussionist.
Love the street drumming busker!
Go Dave Go! Nice work.
Good for you! Be careful with such an addicting piece of gear!
Do it some more!

Excellent!
"Just give me a reason to be sinister..." Very clever.
It's great to hear that you are doing better! Cool piece.
I like the touch of Reg!
Awesome song.
