It was a curious and wondrous thing.
One night I was in my studio adding some percussion to the "Quiet Rituals" track by Barry van Oudtshoorn, when my 4 young children (with whom I was long over-due to be tucking into bed and reading a bed…

Tight Groove! Hate it when your instruments decide to steal your beer...but hey...it's a small price to pay for having them play along for free on a track, right? btw...can't believe you used to listen to KY102 back in the day! Where you from originally?

@Geas:
Uh, that would have freaked me out too. And how about when you have your headphones up loud, really focusing on the project, and you look up and somebody has (quietly, so as not to disturb you) walked into the studio to ask you a question or something? I've had to edit out a explicit derogatory once in awhile - but the adrenaline rush is awesome!

For Improv Friday
I improvised this guitar track and recorded audio and midi (Fender Mustang + GR-20) feel free to add to this
After some editing I came up with "And No One Listens"
I used Guitar Rig 4, Kontakt (bass), hyperwave synth, True…
I was just really bored, so I decided to record this truly epic song.
Actually, funny story about how I recorded this. You know those long, black, skinny, microphones you can buy at Wal-Mart, in the computer section? Yeah, I used that, and Cubase…
Jqscutt had this guitar riff that he sent me and we worked out a song with bass, rhythm, lead and drums over the internet. I posted it for a collab for some key additions. This was added by TiS friends K-Lyd and Coruz. Later, they found Liam…
Previously released as "a little moon music", Here, used as the background for a video i made in Oct of Great White Sharks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iX5R3lrxmYs
This is not the typical Discovery Channel version, here i saw the more languid…
Thanks for showing us the beauty of a creature that most of us consider to be a ruthless devourer. Your tender soliloquy perhaps does the beast more than justice... I can only hope for the same.
A slightly destructive children's song... But I suspect that many of you have tried some of the things mentioned.
I have a great idea up in my head
Let's try it out this afternoon
We'll tie the dog up to the sled
Pretend we're launching…
Haha! Pwnd by the phone company once again. I feel your pain. The chain saw solution caught me by surprise, but sounded effective.
It would probably be a very bad idea for you to ever collaborate with ReefWalker about this topic... he has a history of many phone problems as well.

Somebody should create an album of songs dealing with phone problems on AT - a recurring theme!
This is an orchestral piece composed in 13 note subset of 31 notes per octave called “Orwellâ€. The purpose of this piece was to study polyphonic voice leading in a microtonal context. It was realized via Sonar 8.5 and Garritan Personal Orchestra…
I read about the Duodene in Doty's book and wanted to try it. I took the opportunity of Margo's scala formatted duodene on the nonoctave forum to toss it into fractal tune smithy and improvise with the tuning.
I hope you don't find this too…
There are times, moments, sounds, shadow falls that take us to and bring us back to magical times in our lives,,,Something in this piece by Johnny Mercer & Henry Mancini,, can pull me in so many different ways,,, it's always been a favorite…
Numbers stations (or number stations) are shortwave radio stations of uncertain origin. They generally broadcast artificially generated voices reading streams of numbers, words, letters (sometimes using a spelling alphabet), tunes or Morse code…
A composition in Semimarvelous 17 note dwarf for amplified voice, amplified piano, fretless electric guitar, amplified jazz drum kit and amplified Asian percussion. Words by William Newbold and Visual by Emily.

Oh, my holy noodles. *Another* bloody 12-bar in E, and what's worse, it's a *slow* blues. Every guitar player who deems it appropriate to play a slow blues in E, in this the 21st, should be roasted like a head of garlic, smeared across a toasted…
Comments on Norm's stuff
Yep yep, I do believe I am digging this. Love the use of the harp. :) FAV'D and DL'd
Just going to comment on the tight pattern with the eclectic shekere time placement, but then I heard you playing the harp. nice tune man! Downloading
You are the King of percussion Norm, brilliant.
Love the hat at 0:58...really nice man!
I wish AT had a repeat button. I'm downloading this - great piece Norm!
...drummer, in the rhythm of his own, decidedly takes height... Easy for me to say. I wasn’t there :-)
This is really cool Norm. I enjoyed that mate very cool. Thanks for your recent comments mate
great tune Norm! hey, take a look to "el vuelo del cóndor" on my playlist, you've done a great job, thank you very much again.
Freaky and Fantastic! Great Stuff. Spooky given the story but blooming Great!
nice. vibration sounds really cool.
Fantastic tune!
Tight Groove! Hate it when your instruments decide to steal your beer...but hey...it's a small price to pay for having them play along for free on a track, right? btw...can't believe you used to listen to KY102 back in the day! Where you from originally?
Man that sounds deadly.
Thanks Norm I was not that sure of the glock but you are the King of percussion so thanks for that.
@Norm - happens regularly. One of these days I'm going to accidentally knock her out :D
The more I listen to this the more I like tops

My synth counted down 4-3-2-1 for me once. During a late RPM night. Scared the Sh*t right out of me.
Very freaking cool man!
Excellent track, Norm... I may need to mess with this as well!
Comments made by Norm
Truely beautiful. Nice job!
Nice work here.
This is most excellent! Rocks indeed!
My hands are definately up!
Another uber collab! Thanks for posting this here... it's great to hear it again.

No saint, her.
Menacing.
Very clever. So what did you find under the flooring?
Sleep? We can all sleep in our graves, but for now I hope you keep jamming! Lots of potential with this one!

Excellent music, concept and production. Well done!
I don't understand it but I like it. Thanks once again for pushing the envelope for me.
*Great* percussion. Sort of a "Beyond Thunderdome" feel.
Yes, this is wonderful. Thanks my huckleberry friend.
There's no love like rock-n-roll love. Nice work!
Beautiful.
Yes, I had never heard of that either. Well done!
Mindbending.
Delicious! But then I love garlic... Well done!
