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…
Veeeeeeeeeeeeeery nice groove. Shufflin beat...slow waves to wash over you...and a gradual build in composition. It's all about the journey. Diggin' it as usual.
You're just kidding yourself if you thought I could resist the chance to add a bit of percussion to this wonderful song by Osckilo & Launched. I used Paiste Sound Discs to create a 3vs.4 polyrhythm against the delightful underlying 4/4 Spanish…
my rpm #5,, it will eventually become a part om my themed cd "the dark doll house" a somewhat sad place where memories of childhoods past echo through empty rooms,, the two other pieces thus far in this theme are the 3 mov of my piano sonata…

Different recording here as the electric guitar, bass guitar were not plugged in, just recorded raw with a power mic and then EQ'ed to make it sound amped - pardon mistakes!
At one point, I had a version recorded with much better guitar -- at least I thought I did -- but I can't find it now...
Another one of those tunes that kept growing after the demo was laid down, this song now has twice as many verses as you…
rpm #3,, from a future themed piece to be called "the dark doll house" a place where yellow orange light drifts through soft gray curtains,,far away a child's laugh echos down the stair case,,
I really enjoyed this collab took me back to my teens....Led Zep 2 was my first introduction into Zeppelin and i loved every track....and thanks to Gene i got to be the lead singer for a few Minutes..

Comments on Norm's stuff
All Hallows was groovin' alright! Love the clicky bits (I know all the technical phrases, me). I defy anyone not to tap their feet to this one! Tess S
Oh Yeah! This is the stuff alright. I still got to get down to jamming on some of your grooves one of these days
Norm is brilliant, as always.
Diggin the new track Norm. Crisp tune to wake up to! Will have to listen to again when I get home.
@D: The vision of you dancing with your 4 month old to this delights me!
Can't wait to get settled into my new place and have my next studio set up so I can add to this one. (if you don't mind, that is.)
Just spent the morning dancing with my daughter to this groove. She's only four months old...but was totally movin' her feet and giggling to this.
Sweet sounding drum.
Improvin it up!!! BOO YEAH! :)
really cool, your recordings are very clear very tactile to the ear
im with it
this what i really like true music from the drum no singeres and gutars to mess it all up
La danza, es la clave de la felicidad. Well played Norm, gorgeous rhythm!!
oui.....brillanti......comme d'habitude....
@ Vaisvil: *La clave es la llave, la llave es la clave*.
I hear a lot of melodies in this one. All of the drums seem to speak to me. Even the clave. Perhaps I'm finally getting it?
This is were its at!! Groovy!!
I is a nice and romantic music. A lot of emprovement.
Veeeeeeeeeeeeeery nice groove. Shufflin beat...slow waves to wash over you...and a gradual build in composition. It's all about the journey. Diggin' it as usual.
