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.

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.

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!!
This is a solo piano performance using an M-Audio 88es midi controller, Pianoteq, and a tuning I devised that is based on a harmonic series segment reduced to one octave.

Great to hear some other Virginia musucians on this great website. You rock strong. I'm proud that you are from the Commonwealth. Look me up when you are in Roanoke if you would like to jam with a percussionist. Strong work!
Mining the archives a bit. This is an alternate take of my "Jimi Jam" from a couple of years ago. Live to 2 tracks with the Jamman. Really only sounds OK when cranked up loud enough that your eardrums threaten to meet in the middle. LOL!!
Percussion by Norm
Lyrics by Rat-Hybrids
It's been tough to keep up lately, hope everyone is well.
Something I was working on as part of a larger project. When it's done I'll link it.
This is a lovely song with great lyrics. It stands on it's own without any percussion - to my ear it was too delicate to put any percussion to except just a touch of shaker. Nice work! As usual from you, great vox.
All of this is performed - Norm's many percussion devices, Fender Mustang, and GR-20 driven by the guitar for the rest of the voices excepting a bit of a choir at the end.
Ha! This was great fun for me generating a large number of interesting spooky noises -all acoustically- in my laboorratory. The chilling errie wind sound was created with a long spring, attached to the head of a small hand drum (known as a “spring drumâ€, of course) and the “opening crypt†sound was generated by running my thumb nail down the spring under tension. And any time I get to hit the 30†Paiste gong, you know I’m smiling –evilly in this case.
This is a rough mix of a track I did with the one & only Norm Harris. I've got some vocals in mind, but it may take some time to put it together, so meanwhile here's the instrumental version. Big thanks & major props to Norm…
Yes, RW's sitar works very well here. Nice! I confess that I don't know what a tenpura is, but then I thought a hurdy-gurdy had something to do with a busking monkey... now I realize its a wheel fiddle, which I've never come close to seeing or hearing.
I still want one of those things with the monkey hitting folks up for change in his little cup, whatever it's called.
I extended my very short Halloween piece - doubled it in length - not too hard considering it still is only a minute long.
This is using the Garritan Personal Orchestra sample set.
2 organs, piano, flute, bassoon.
This is my first musical expedition into the midi keyboard. Having never played the piano its a fun learning experience. Thanks to Norm for lending me Stinkbug!
In Argentina they say "in Argentina everything may change - except the tango", but I couldn't resist adding some percussion to this beautiful nuevo tango by Vincent Voois, composed in the style of Astor Pantaleon Piazzolla.
Check out Vincent…
@Jarvis:
A bandoneon is a type of concertina, sort of like an accordion, popular in Argentina... Piazolla is considered to be one of the masters of this instrument, (good question... I had to look it up myself).

Ha! That's rich. All he wants is a regular cello, "like all the other cello people". But you gave a nice pitch for the electric bitchin' cello... I feel your pain, brother! A million drums and my kids want to play sax, flute and piano!
Very nice work here, Dylan!
When I put these last 3 songs on itunes, my computer did something weird. It told me that these songs were already out there on the internet somewhere. So, in order not to infringe on any copyright laws, I would like to assure everyone that NONE…

Thanks to Sister Savage for helping us debut our new project. As busy as she is, Sister managed a bit of time and some great Jovian vox for us.
This piece or art is unique, sublime, and psychedelic.

Killer! I think you held in there just fine! One more time....
@Slkrell: Many thanks! Of course. All of my stuff is up for grabs and I would love to hear what you do with it!

Damn nice groove!
Everythings all right yes everythings fine (no apologies to mr lloyd webber)
Hypnotic groove!
.....excellent...listening to this while walking you can't help skipping...well a kind of skip shuffle anyway....i call it the no worries shuffle
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! ;)
Just Cyndi checking out the groves!
Wonder whatever happened to Alister.....
and just found Jarvo's comment, hahaha.....
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"
(to much groove for words....) :)
Get Gilberto Gil to sing on this!
Very nice
Really diggin this one again today. :)

Oh guys, swayingly gorgeous. Deliciously sweet!
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!!

Keep pushing that envelope! Tell me again, as you recorded this, are you listening to the tuning as we hear it in the recording?
Lovely!
Provocative and powerful.
Great to hear some other Virginia musucians on this great website. You rock strong. I'm proud that you are from the Commonwealth. Look me up when you are in Roanoke if you would like to jam with a percussionist. Strong work!
Oh, how did I miss this rocker? Strong on many levels.
Yes! This rocks hard.
This is a lovely song with great lyrics. It stands on it's own without any percussion - to my ear it was too delicate to put any percussion to except just a touch of shaker. Nice work! As usual from you, great vox.
Ahh, Vibraphone & Piano: 2 of my favorite *percussion* instruments. I'll go on an expedition with you any time! (Way hip kite surfing photo)

Which ferret is the witch ferret?
I agree with Beth: definite Spanish flavor to this one. Very nice!

Still fresh and new, once again. Outstanding.
This is still fantastic. I'm sorry about your toothbrush.
Still awesome!
Exotic.
Wow great song. Your inspiration must be something else! Well done! Great collaboration.
Most excellent!
