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!

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

Doug: You have such a great trademark sound. I've never heard anything quite like it... it's always a snap to recognize your pieces as I listen to random AT radio. Many thanks for you beautiful postings!
Wellll it's not really a mystery, it's a little Beatles remixing!! I've basically just mashed together Octopus's Garden and All My Lovin'.
Hope you like it!
toooons of fun makin it :)
Had to do this one on the fly before an open mic night....
Sorry about the quality...
Came up with the song this morning ......
One take... GTR+MIC on one tracks (doubled up), Played live....
Not much time to record music or…
Lyrics
The Good Lifeless has Become Boundless
such that it is written,
went where and windly
with pentacles of pie
like know our way
down the screem
when we find what it
is that can been and be we of their
2 tracks of hobnox…
@Mac McIntyre: Ha! I just did the same thing (well, without breaking a string) - I've been digging this playlist from behind my congas. Great stuff here.
This is a piece Norm and I collaborated on last year. We hope you will enjoy it.
two improvised 12 string guitar lines
bass line ( I took a few takes)
improvised piano
Norm's percussion in Tumbao rhythm
did a remix of latest B-52s (ex B-52's) song "Funplex". i admit i didn't really take the time to polish this, so it might have some flaws here and there, but it was fun to do and after all, is this not what matters most? :)
and you can…
This is a little piece dedicated to the lost world island of Socotra that grabs a lot of instrumentation from across Asia with little discrimination - the melodic instruments use Afshari with the exception of the Jaw harps which use 9-tET Sorog.
What ever you were whompin’ up must have looked/smelled great! But then again, hunger is the best sauce. And the main riff at the end just leaves all of us hungry for more. Is it ready yet?
This is a piece that uses MOTU Ethno 2. All but percussion and voice were performed my Fender Mustang and midi recorded via Roland GR-20. The piece uses the Almak tuning included in Ethno 2. [Amlak recurrent sequence (x^2 = x + 1/3), as a matrix…
Cool tuning. I've never heard anything like it. Nice work Debbie! The percussion is just perfect for this. The left channel "swampy" guitar towards the end rules!
Alright!! This is some kickin' tune right here. I wanted to mess with this one when Jarvis first uploaded it. Then Brian Bazeley added this great bass line to it. At that point, I had no choice but to add some more veggies to this stew…
a simple seventies type performance core piece vocal, guitars, bass, and lots of lovely drums!
and a few effects just for the thrill

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!

Well done!
Well done! I like the staccato percussion work.
Very nice!
Smoooth and loungey! Excellent percussion work (using just the first half of Son clave @ half time = nice effect)
Well done. Great voice! The story itself is well told - almost tough to listen to. I hope the house warms back up!
Excellent!
@Mac McIntyre: Ha! I just did the same thing (well, without breaking a string) - I've been digging this playlist from behind my congas. Great stuff here.
Still fresh!
The B52's have had some classics, but I believe I like your remix better than their release.
Excellent! The percussion is just perfect.
The bees knees!
What ever you were whompin’ up must have looked/smelled great! But then again, hunger is the best sauce. And the main riff at the end just leaves all of us hungry for more. Is it ready yet?
Great work!
Cool tuning. I've never heard anything like it. Nice work Debbie! The percussion is just perfect for this. The left channel "swampy" guitar towards the end rules!
Hell yes!
Totally pro, rockin' work! Many thanks!
Yep. Just beautiful. Nice work!
A classic. Post the lyrics! Perhaps you can convince Din to post a few things on AT... his percussion & mix mastering really are world class.
I still think that the heart beating through your guitar is a most excellent effect!
