Out on the lawn there arose such a clatter!
Sometimes, as they say, Christmas do come early. I found Johnny Stone's "Christmas Rock In Oz" under the tree and couldn't wait until Yuletide to unwrap it. What a rockin' gift! I know a bit about…
A 3 track improvisation on 7 congas roughly tuned by ear to a chromatic scale.
LYRICS:
I walked a mile with Pleasure;
She chatted all the way;
But left me none the wiser
For all she had to say.

Sniffing around here a little bit, if I haven't said it before you guys are awesome! Really enjoyed this incredible tune. And three years ago. Inspires me to create... music... Betweeeeen the Saddle!!! Eh maybe next year, but that's tomorrow!!!
Ok, so I'm just a percussionist, and if your only tool is a hammer, the entire world looks like a nail. I get it. And I also get that our songs are our children, so we should be very careful about whom we let them play with.

Chris sent this track to me earlier today with the request that I add some percussion to it.
I had something different in mind.
After the first take I was afraid to return it to him, fearing that he would convert it to 23 edo or something…
*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.

This music makes me so happy! What a privilege it was to see the few hours you spent, prior to sending it to your Mighty Brother, the Reefwalker. Great sound guys!

This is a one guitar (Fender Mustang) improvisation leveraging my GR-20 into bass guitar, strings, synth wash + strumming and percussion. At 2:58 my low A string breaks and then my left forearm and hand cramps up. But it was fun as it lasted.
