As chance had it, I found myself in an acoustically great room, full of cajons! Well, they were unfinished cabinets actually, but they had lovely tones. Since this is the stuff dreams are made of, I had no choice but to seize the opportunity and…
well.... tell your wife you'll build her a new addition if she lets you keep this room as is :-)
nice - the sound is so surprisingly robust and resonate in tone.

Good lord this is creative! It's amazing you percussion-heads buy any gear at all :)
And a mesmerizing track as well. I could picture a tribe of cannibals playing this to their captured meal, making him/her relaxed, subdued and presumable more tender!

Caveat emptor: I did absolutely none of the drumming in this piece.
WORLD PREMIER! FIRST RECORDING OF THIS PATTERN - EVER!

Dude, of course this is an instant fav. Yemey and I were hanging out in Togo when I first showed him this pattern. I call it the "King of Windsor" pattern. Naturally, he couldnt tell you this as his english is Kwaai. The lyrics are old too, its about my brother, Norm, the last time he went pheasant hunting. Excellent, man thanks for sharing this

Shout out to Tom Waits, one of my favs. Rumor has it, he has had a similar problem with his piano.
I didnt think I would make it signing this way to the end of the song, lol.
Throat lozenge anyone??
Last of the archives for now. A set of reels from the Last Nights Fun album. I did pipes, whistle and guitar on the last tune in the set. There's a live version of this up here too. This is the studio cut
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…
Norm played the percussion first, which is a Bembe pattern; I couldnt help playing a melody and creating lyrics for this perc track. Thanks for the listen, Enjoy!
this was originally a song about breaking through paradigms but turned into a song about a girl.
Keys and string samples from Korg, MIDI with the old Ensoniq,
one diving board.
Thanks for the listen ,enjoy... RW
A collab with Tod Wolfe and Ken Davidsen - Awesome dudes!
Tod - Drums

Gene sent me over this beaut of a funky backer of the song by Tower of Power a real tounge tister i'm guilty of the vocals Gene did the good bit Thanks Gene

When we were kids, my brother used to wake me up before dawn and we would schlep across this field and wait for the unobstructed sunrise. At that time, it seemed like the coolest thing ever!
I have officially stopped with CD 's and now have decided to mail zip drives. I tried mailing these in a regular envelope. (FAIL lol)
One guy got postage due of $2.51 and the other, the envelope was destroyed with no zip at all. For my brother…
Another recent song somehow not posted to AT (?) cleaning house this weekend.
Had the privilege of playing around with a cello in the house.
Dont know how to play the damn thing but too fun not adding it in the mix
Comments on Norm's stuff
well.... tell your wife you'll build her a new addition if she lets you keep this room as is :-) nice - the sound is so surprisingly robust and resonate in tone.
they sound excellent ! Is there a way you can stop with your kitchen remodel and keep the cabinets as they are???
Wow, you are indeed a man of many talents! Pat Eby
Bit hard to add anything to this one. Jolly good show.
Bloody hell, I bet you could make my kitchen sing!
Good lord this is creative! It's amazing you percussion-heads buy any gear at all :) And a mesmerizing track as well. I could picture a tribe of cannibals playing this to their captured meal, making him/her relaxed, subdued and presumable more tender!
Damn! They did have lovely tones! I gotta download some of your stuff to jam to. Is that a bottle of Guinness on the shelf? Good man yourself!
Syncopation Like no other! Loving this! Reminds me Of my trip to Nigeria! Is it Africa-fest on the site or something? FAVED!
You have done it again Bro! From The First beat, I was Hooked! Love it!
This is amazing!
wow - this is complicated!! and cool!
WOW! Amazing stuff!
Gobsmacked !
I love it. It sounds true and real and natural. I LOVE it.
Had to listen again....still love it!
pure percussion genius!
@RW: Ha! Thanks, but that's a bold faced lie - I've never missed a pheasant.

very very nice!
Yes - I love it. Masterfully played and produced. It's a really tight beat, and sounds as one in a lot of places. Very impressive!
Comments made by Norm
Great! I wish that it went on much longer. I thought that you were lulling me into a perfect wave and were then going to hit me with a Tsunami.
I hate it. Wait! No, I love it.
HOLY SHIT!!! Maybe you and I should have a small fight out on the lawn...
I hope you get fat.
Oh Tess...
Hmmm, Walker. Who on Earth would ever put such dangerous music into the hands of such an impressionable youg man?
Too much fun!
Long live the trilogy!!
Worked!
Ha! I haven't had to listen to this one in over 2 years. Progress! An epic recording. Very important to me.
So GREAT to hear from you again.
Great lullaby. Please play me just one more. Whaaa? Where did Launched come from? I had given up hope!
BUMP CITY!
One of the coolest songs ever.
I am grateful for those memories...
ZZLOVEIT!
One of the best technical songs ever. Now, regarding the Hurdy Gurdy... Well done my bold brother. And Merry Christmas.
Typical USPS. Congrats on the new throne! I can't wait to steal it.
Damn that Desirea. She does that to everyone...
Didn't you have a graphic of the original lyrics for this? :) Great remix.
