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…

Accent and feel are so alive. Hell I loved it
Lets help me learn to build tracks that are ezy to collaborate with. Ive got a ton of this style originals. See "Cabo two Step"
*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.

At a recent charity event held in my small town's train museum, I was admiring a massive brass train bell when the curator walked up to me. I commented that a bell would really rather be heard then seen, and he agreed. I offered to digitally record…

quiet laughter, clink of ice in glass

a quiet romance begins

A song about meeting up with each other this year for some music and booze next week.

i need some time
just to rehearse

what should i bring
what will we sing…
Full picture of the guitarron body - it sounded great - nicely deep.
The guitarron is fretless with a very short neck which reminds me of a giant Oud - the wikipedia article will give you an idea of just how huge this thing really is…

I plugged my Fender Mustang directly into the Zoom H2 and monitored with head phones while sitting on my bed and played around. This is a compressed version of one of the things I did. I've been pretty sick the past few days but I needed to…

Wanted it raw so stuck with the One Guitar one voice thing.

This is a recording of Norm and me playing together a few months ago. I didnt have any percussion instruments so Norm was on a Roland electric trap set and I had a cello. I looped some of the stuff we did that night, and retrofitted the rest…
Good dog. Bad Dog. It's all the same. Poor Daisy. Sometimes when the opportunity presents itself, you just have to run far away, through out the night.
Great vox on this one and the change of perspective -from the narrator's to Daisy's- is very clever. But the double entendre that this piece drips with is the part I like the very best.
These are facinating! More information, please? Origin? History? Translation? Production details? What is that predominant percussion sound? Almost sounds like a bellows...
Well, this may be the final tweaking of this nice little sing along song...
I sent this fun little sing along off to Jim of MTC fame, and once again he has outdone himself... And I can't thank him and his wife (who appears covertly) enough…
This is what happens when I come back to a track that started being put together in a commercial radio station production studio back in about '92/'93 (post liquid-lunch "creative" time). The rhythm loops were layered then the crunch guitar (courtesy…

Comments made by Norm
Excellent!
Have a great time. Have a G&T for me!
Sounds like a mariachi band has recently been through your Guitar Center...
Awesome! I'd love to see you guys perform in the desert sometime... a perfect back-drop for this sort of music and hunting for allicantos.
Ahh. This evolves nicely. I love the cello action. Totally pro.
Great space you have created here! Just right for a high soaring Condor. You did a beautiful job with this -superb mixing. I love it! Many thanks!
I still love this one...
I can hear you recovering!
Menacing!
Very effective! Nice guitar work and drum work here.
Excellent. I think you nailed it with this one: one guitar, one voice works very well here.

Go team go! I'm singing it with you!
Excellent work here. Meritous of many more listens IMHO.
Great percussion!
Very enjoyable. Thanks!
Sounds great nearly 20 years later!
So how does the harmonic series filter work? Does it just allow one to hear the lowest A, E and next to the lowest B? Wild stuff!
She's going to treasure this someday...
