Rumba Columbia is a traditional Cuban pattern in 6: the "go-to" pattern for 12/8 - if you have only heard one Afro-Cuban rhythm in 12/8, this is probably it. As an energetic Afro-Cuban dance, Rumba was often suppressed and restricted because it…

This is a 3/16 Bembe on tuned congas, played with mallets. I've arranged it (at the very kind suggestion of Vaisvil & ReefWalker) in a verse/chorus/bridge/capo fashion to get away from a straight pattern - I think this sort of arrangement…

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…

This is one stereo track of 6 conga drums tuned, by ear, to roughly a chromatic scale (I don't know which one - perhaps I've gone micro-tonal!) coupled with a single track of ad-lib quinto (the high drum) and a "shuffle" groove on trap-set…

Drum-n-bass composition I did back in 2004 via digital-razor-blade technique with an additional fat synth line. That's it. Hear something you want to add? Go for it!

She doesn’t need me
she doesn’t want me
She has gone
She’s closed the door on my life although i’ve done no wrong
i Can’t tell what she wants

I was listening to Andy Casson's song Old ladies over on Songcrafters and it got Reg thinking........... could this be the last song i ever hear................so Reg went down the cellar to write a one chord song using only the notes that make…
Reg has been thinking he's fed up with all this celebrity crap.......the emperor is naked can't you see..........

I’ve said this once
I’ve said this twice
I don’t give a damn about the celebrities life

Elvis got philosophising in the cellar again last night.........................so Louie and Reg got Bluesy with him and this is what turned out of the session.........
DREAMER(Lyrics)
Well I asked the mirror if my dreams would come true…
Sometimes it seems ... No: it always seems that we are all in some kind of closed squirrel circle, and we all run, run... away? Both I and thou. Why? The meaning of life whether it?
No, I'm not crying or whatever boring. I just wondering…
Charlie, I too have a fascination with "The Theme Song From Peter Gunn"... one of my favorite from Mancini. The francesca vocal fx is slightly reminiscent of the skat singing of Edie Hart, so I am sure this would fit right in at *Mother's*.
A steel string guitar improvisation I did last night before bed called “A Nagging Thought“. The piece prominently features a V+ to i (augmented dominant to minor tonic) movement. I usually don’t care for the sound of an augmented tried but in…
Comments on Norm's stuff
Dude! You own this place!!
Ahhh, I really like this. technically, very well crafted with a subtle, smooth blend.
Awwww now I need a long iced drink with an umbrella innit !! gonna make one too...hot skins Norm,hot skins !

Listened to Rumba columbia just before this. Leads on soooooo Well!! A Great Listen!
Does what it says on the tin.... And so much more! Really Meditative as well! Love it!
Bubbles along like a beaut!
That's some prime percussion. Real nifty playing.
Excellent job on everyone's part!

Muy FN Bien!
Just listened to the BrianisedBassed up version of this ,good job by bothyas.....
I like the rhythm!
Beefy beats!
In yo FACE Tracy Partridge!!!
Wow! Very cool rhythms!!
very nice
Thats a groovy sound for sure, I can dig this. Who would have thought the lowly tambourine would hold my attentions for so long.
This is great! It takes a special kind of healthy crazy to let it all out in a tambourine solo!
Comments made by Norm
Excellent percussion work!
Really rocks!
I dig it!
Stand strong Reg.
In some cases, we can only hope it is the last time.
Ah! Reg, you are right. I thought she looked familiar. I wonder what she is looking at - no doubt somebody has dropped their wallet on the sofa.
They say a good wine has nice legs...
Debt is not what "eats the soul", Reg.
Tough to beat a monk and monkey combination. Nice work!!
Let's all kill our televisions! Good one Reg.
Get a new mirror, Reg. Great vox as always!
Speechless.
This is another gem from you! This really moves! Great vocal work.
Awesome!
Time to start stealin' again! Nice build up and dreamy guitar.
Excellent question...
This would be good to play while the credits are rolling at the end of the Reg movie...

Best bass groove of all time. I can't help but think of the Blues Brothers and the old arcade game "Spy Hunter" when I hear this.
Auuugh! Once seen, never to be forgotten... regrettably. Fortunately, once heard, not forgotten either. Nice work!
