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.

*Try not to get worried*
*I am with you always*
*Try not to get worried*
*And don’t forget*
*Simply…
Bloody hell...I struggle with 4/4 nevermind pushing the envelope to double that and add one ....sheesh !!

I like this tempo very much and the clapping too.
Sounds wonderful through headphones.
Marvellous how you can do all that and sweep up the dead leaves at the same time! ;)
*Pilón* reveals a Cuban pattern, traditionally played on Timbales, but in this case on Jr. Congas & Congas (with gated reverberation and flanger effect). The rhythm of Pilón is based on the motions of pounding sugar cane.

Just noticed the comment i left on this 2 years ago :O TWO YEARS man ;) haha, it has now been properly fav'd and yes....it still inspires me to "get my tribal on"
I was thumbing a ride along a hot, deserted Caribbean road. When Steve pulled up in this vintage pre-war Chevy, I was very grateful. It just so happened he was heading to the same cantina I was, so we kicked back with a pitcher of mojitos…

There are 3 styles of the Rumba Guáguánco pattern: this one originates from the Cuban province of Matanzas (to the east of Havana).
“Rumba” is a Spanish term for a gathering of musicians, singers & dancers (what West Africans refer to…

This is excellent from both of you!
Norm sounds like an entire rhythm section, and I love the interplay between the various guitar parts.
More triangle!!
Working through a barrage of songs over two different computers. thought I posted this already but its not on AT. (?)
A little re-tooling on this one today as well.
Enjoy- Reef
RPM17
1/10
First song on RPM 17....eh first song on RPM ever lol
Really glad I made this one.
I had to dig up an old VHS tape (anyone remember those?) for the audio sample in this track.
The hardest part about making this tune was actually…
Damn! Feels good to hit the Upload button again!
Completed RPM 17. this is the last track!!. the album is my first run through with logic pro ( dumping pro tools and the monthly subscription fee)
I feel great playing again.. been so long…

Just got my system up again after several hardware upgrade conflicts, and a move to California.
Been thinking about changing this songs ending for a while, finally getting around to it. Good to post here again!

Like A Wave

If you make yourself a mule
someone's gonna ride you
this I know
Like a breeze moves through the air
or a wave upon the water
is how I go
When you can freely give
of all that you can hold
you can know no more…
Chris sent me over this track and i got to wondering what i could do to add to it. The tragedy of the Russian plane flying back from Egypt came to mind .....
CHAOS
The chaos of our time
rules our minds

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.
3 Congas, Vintage Bass Cocktail…
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.
Caveat emptor: I did absolutely none of the drumming in this piece.
ANOTHER WORLD PREMIER! FIRST RECORDING OF THIS PATTERN - EVER!
My friend Kokou "Alex" Yemey delighted me with another visit this evening. He played "Aju" - all 5 tracks…
some video of my trip to Winston-Salem to perform three nights of microtonal music with a cast of excellent musicians and composers. More on that later...

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...
In case you are in the mood today to kick some ass with Mike and me.

2 Words: Great Remix.
And lunatic is a lifestyle.
I'm really glad you made this one too before the tape finally turns to dust.
Not that I need another reason to enjoy jamming with you...
Sort of making me drool a bit...
Whoa...
...love your warts. :)
Can't we take her with us?
وأنا أتفق ، وهذا هو جميل جدا
great coverage of a tragic event. What is this world coming to?
What has happened to this website?

RIP Alex. I am so happy I could share this with the world while you were with us. Hey world, when you evolve enough to appreciate this, enjoy!
We can't wait to hear about it, Chris!

This made my day a lot sunnier! (Sounds like you have the studio back up and running - excellent!)
@Clumsy: Be my guest!
It is easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission. Thanks Kirk.
@Reef: That's the spirit! Have your way with it!
Oooooh! May I have this??
