I asked CaptGene for something funky, trusting that a fishing guide from Babsom Park would know exactly what I was talking about. He did. The Captain knows funk.

Merengues are fast arrangements with a 2/4 beat, originating from the Dominican Republic. The traditional instrumentation includes a "güira" (guiro), which is a percussion instrument that sounds like a scrapper. The Merengue güira is a cylinder…
The chorus of this groove is in 5/4 and the verse in 9/4. You can hear me fall apart at the very end… guess I got worried.

As I had nothing better to do last night, I had this great idea that I would construct a rhythm for the 24 hour challenge. This would be different: a 24 minute drum solo (I mean, who wouldn't love that?). I even had a perfect bass riff: the "Mother…

Just messing around on a Saturday morning. A
rough cut at best, but I get a kick out of it.

Outstanding nightmare! I would suggest the gentle listener doesn't get tucked in with this one unless they want to stare at the ceiling for awhile before they finally get to sleep.
Did the guitar tracks first, followed by bass, then drums and vocals last. I wrote this song in a bookstore, after I came home and recorded it, I realized I made the song too short for all the lyrics.

Reefwalker, you don't even need a vocoder. A jacuzzi is a much better option. Once your boy gets into it, he'll forget all about the vocoder! (But I did trade the Caddy for a really nice microphone...)
This is a live recording from a club that had a studio built into it. Unfortuntately, the club shut down. After performing this one, there was a chill up my spine. It's a haunting one.

All said in a day.
They’ve lost all their meaning now.
Wasted away.

I hope Norm will forgive me for what I did to his excellent percussion track.
I bought a used Alesis mixer today from guitar center and had to try it out, of course. So I laid down 4 tracks of 12 string guitar - including…
Comments on Norm's stuff
Taking me places. I'm with Bee on the percussion - it's wonderful :)
He was probably building a home studio. This is exactly what it sounded like when I built mine. Minus all that 5/4 stuff.
Really makes my imagination run wild. Nice going guys!
Great collab guys. Vox right on. The instrumental at the end especially makes the mind wonder, what the hell IS he building in there.
Wonderful, really interesting! Great performance Reg and delightful percussion! Bee
Fantastic guys......oh yeah
this is awesome, just awesome!
...and that the business is? Yeah! - and what's he building in there? ...what was built, finally? Knock-knocking, what they do - it is unclear. We have a rights to know! ;-)
Great stuff, but ya know- Maybe it's none of our business!

Nice bodhran work here! I've a sudden craving for a pint...

Truer words were never spoke. Well done.
Very nice. Beautiful voice.
Cool bass groove!
IMHO, the only button left to push is "fave"!
Fantastic. Stem to stern hit. I like everything about it. "I'l be my own harmonizing vocoder" - ha! You should really post the lyrics to this gem.
Another great one from Mr. Sweet! Many thanks!
Great story!
Beautiful! Lovely voice!!
Yep, I want to dance. Excellent drum work here.
Sweet! Great voice! Nice funky bridge, too!
I like it! Nice drum work here...
Very clever. Nice work!
