Brilliant song! Love the complex patterns and also the "drone" soundscape in the background (yes, I would guess it is done with a modular synth, but I know you do not use that :-))

"High Life" is a musical genre that originated in Ghana in the 1900s and spread to Sierra Leone, Nigeria and other West African countries by 1920. My friends from that part of the world consider this be the "go-to" rhythm for just about anything…
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…

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…

Man, i need to go back through all your collabs now...:) This is yet another great track. I think your kids had the right idea, it fits perfect with the music man!
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…
"Afoxe" is a rhythm played by carnival groups from Bahia in Northeastern Brazil. It is named after an instrument that is traditionally used to play this pattern: an afoxe is a beaded gourd; aka "shekere". In this rendition, I replaced the shaker…

A Song I wrote about a friend of mine who used to Jump out of planes a lot.
This is one of the hidden tracks on my new album "Black Cat" which features Beth, Keith and Reewfwalker from alonetone and Geir and Jim from Songcrafters.
Here is a…
Year: 1999
Album:
Land of the Lost
Artist's description:
I don't remember where I got the drum set from but there is a custom percussion loop thanks to HammerHead.
The voice is mine suitably modified.
That is not a sequencer…
Reg has been over to Songcrafters.org on the other side and found this little beauty a piece of music by Willi Wendon and he loved it so much he's put a vocal to it. Hope you like it Willie..........

improvisation with pianoteq and hollywood strings
I am feeling like all of my improvisations sound the same again. I probably need to devote even more time to scoring - and building instruments.
Reg was alone so he had a few beers and had a look through his tapes this is Pt 1 of a set of tapes taken from the cellar.......Regs first night in the cellar...James Brown ...Elvis....Louis...Jim.The story begins.........
Here's my talley of who's in the cellar with the Regs Deuce:
James Brown, Henwrench, Vincent Price, Elvis, Frederico, Louie Armstrong, Bon Scott, Frank Sinatra, Jim Morrison and perhaps Satan.

This was going to be a re-make of Dancing on my own but reg was too busy to participate so i have used Norms percussion track and got Chris Vaisvil to bass it up and i have added a vocal creating something new. Reg has had a lot of trouble with…
Reg's little homage to Elizabeth Taylor who passed away today, the piano is a little dodgy and the lyrics and the singing in parts as i'm following my dodgy playing, it will have to be revisited but i thought i'd share anyway as i would forget…
I have tried to make a literal representation of this from Mat Cooper:
"I consider rhythm to be ultra-low pitch. Polyrhythms are then Just Intonation. For example if rhythm1 cycles through 4 beats in the same time as rhythm2 cycles through 3…
Well, is it microtonal? What do you make of this?
As for me, when it is in a tempo range that I can follow (mid range) it sounds like a basic 4vs.3 polyrhythm. This makes sense to me, as all of the drum tones drop back into the their common denominator of 4 or 3 and resound in unison.
So, I get the sense of polyrhythm, but not microtonality.
It would be interesting to me to repeat this experiment with, for example, piano key tones to see if the results are the same, i.e. is one left with a sense of 4vs.3 polyrhythm or something else.
My hypothesis is that the effect will be the same. I do not believe the pitch of the notes relate to this question. And I also think that at this point I do not agree with the premise that "polyrhythms are then Just Intonation": polyrhythms represent a relationship in time, whereas Just Intonation represents a relationship in pitch.
Comments on Norm's stuff
interesting,, thought on the idea of faith,, i agree with WS,, sounds excellent with headphones,,, i like you logo,,, very cool,, excellent work
There is nothing stinky about this excellent stuff
excellent
Brilliant song! Love the complex patterns and also the "drone" soundscape in the background (yes, I would guess it is done with a modular synth, but I know you do not use that :-))
Damn fine groove here, i agree with W.S. i need to cruise back over this tonight with a good set of cans on.
Good work Norm
Agree with Chris, This is really nice...especially in HD headphones..

Hooray!!!! for the chocolate cat

Man, i need to go back through all your collabs now...:) This is yet another great track. I think your kids had the right idea, it fits perfect with the music man!

Not sure if I should be wiggling about like this, hey why not!
Slick-ster deluxe. Very colorful.
This is excellent, really something to listen to closely.
Comments made by Norm
Excellent. Strong work here...
Very clever!
Long live the King!
It's great to hear some home made instrument action. I have several percussion instruments that I have made...
Strong work brother!

Where do I get an application to be the house percussionist at this place??
Brilliant!
Still dig it. Great vass, Baisvil! And vox heavenly.
Great collaboration. Awesome bass.
Yet another side to your amazing voice, Reg. Impressive.

Great recording technique. Naturally, I can't help but think of old Saturday morning cartoons on the television when I hear music like this. Love it!
