This traditional Cuban rhythm is the well established "go-to" pattern for 4/4 songs. It is perhaps the most commonly heard conga pattern in 4/4 music. The bongo pattern that accompanies the congas is referred to as "martillo" (the hammer…

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.
This is a cover of a wonderful song by Yoko Kanno, Steve Conte, & Shanti Snyder.

Just a rough version of a song I plan to record properly during this coming February's RPM Challenge.

I work with children every morning
Check their progress every night
I'm an expert with technology
And interactive…
I'm glad that it is day time here - this extraordinary sound seems to lend itself to the mysticism of the early hours. (Oh dear, I've become a blatant plagiarist.)
Lovely sounds. What a great memory of your dad.

Way to work through the pain!
Simply beautiful.

"A good teacher is like a candle: it consumes itself to light the way for others."
How can I resist a bad monkey song? That devil has been in my trees too. Excellent! (Nice bump Reg)
Wow indeed!
