If you have the fever and the only cure is more tambourine, here it is.
MORE TAMBOURINE SOLOS!! (But you should probably wait until you have the house to yourself...)
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…

While I'm certain there are those who may be growing weary of scratching, I couldn't resist posting this great mix by Alister Flint, who is truly a master mixologist extraordinaire - he didn't even have individual tracks to work with! Al was too…

Yes - I love it. Pure, frustration relieving raw energy!! I'm being cleansed just from listening. Solid Dynomite!
(Oh, and the dirty sheet, ha! It was a dirty window that I hadn't cleaned in a while. I was going to use "filthy sheet of dirt" but it didn't fit in the song :) Either way I gotta wash that freakin' window!)

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…

Axe fx, udu drum and some shakers.
Title is in deference to my sister. This song reminds me of something she might come up with but when it comes to songwriting, I'll always be in her shadow.
Product of noodling around. Lead guitars are a combo of UAD's Nigel plugin and the Fractal Axe Fx. Clean guitars are the Fractal. The outro guitars are my Princeton Recording amp.
I played the piano's through my midi guitar and Axon. You can…
Well, already fave'ed by aliens!
I'm in.
Excellent collaborative effort. Wonderful mix. Love your voice here Reefwalker, even that crunchy part at 2 minutes is cool. More cello!
Yep - you said knee pads.
My first upload.
This is a cover of probably my favourite song of all time, by The Waterboys, who were introduced to me many years ago when the highlight of my week was Thursday night TV, pizza and quaffing Baileys.
Thanks to Sister S for…
Reg had a bit of tiff with the Mrs so he stormed down the cellar to release his anguish with Elvis and turned it into this little beauty .....now he feels a lot better and is making Mrs Reg a nice cup of tea to say sorry....because lets face it…
Excellent work! Welcome back other Reg!
@ Beth: Well, since you had to ask! Yes, the percussion here is very nice: I would classify this not as Bossanova (a Brazilian pattern built upon Samba type rhythms). To my ear, this is afro-cuban and would be in the "Son" (aka Salsa) family, in which the "2" is the primary accent. There are a variety of patterns in this family, differing primarily in tempo:
Bolero; Guajira<104; Danzón = 104-132; Cha-Cha = 108-126; Son = 122-224; Son Montuno = 184-216; Mambo = 224-264.
Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free
'Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be,
And when we find ourselves in the place just right,
'Twill be in the valley of love and delight.
When true simplicity…
This tune came about by total chance.
I recorded the Backing track during a spare half an hour one night this week ... Just a Noodle...
Met up with Aaron today by total chance and he was up for recording a vocal on it.
He Free-styled the…
I did this one to Norms track Proof....... it's about a disturbing dream...... i hasten to add it was Reg's dream not mine. So blame him................
I'm shipping my canon off so it can have a new career without me.
Its such a happy yet sad occasion to see your instrument leave the nest..... ;-[
so I had to spend just a little more time with it.
Something the Gritter wrote about the Beatle cover i did rang a bell that turned into an alarm and now it's a song Thanks Sandy The best Cowboys do have Chinese eyes that ain"t no lie.....oh and thank you Pete too.......for actually coming up with it
Clint Eastwood has Chinese eyes. I think you are absolutely correct.
Jose Wells: "Are you a bounty hunter?"
Bounty Hunter: "Yep. A man's got to do something for a living."
Jose Wells: "Dying ain't much of a living, boy."
Samples used in this tune from the NY subway this summer. Inspired by Dave Dunseath
3-12, just uploaded a new version of this with guitar- and some other changes
This song is about all the Austin bands that tried to make a living with their original music in the Austin, TX area in 1991. Lots of Austin bands got their start playing at the Black Cat Club on 6th street in Austin playing for the door. This…

Oh you just totally rule. I mean, for goodness sake. I have a tambourine...hmm.

Wow, Norda Mullen can really work that flute. What a treat to play with her!
Lovely!
Excellent! Love the Udu.
Tasty piece! Adored by aliens too!

Great song, which I had not heard before. Well done!
Ha! Reefwalker is right... the sounds of anguish strike a real chord for all of us who have done exactly that!
@RW: Count me in too.

Great cover Reg.

That's it. I quit.
Sounds like great fun! Nice hats.
