I've been giving my Telecaster a fair workout lately, trying to get my head around some more complicated things than playing chords (which was quite complicated enough for a while there!). I want to learn how to play better, and a style I like…

This is an oldie that needs something. A personal touch but I haven't quite figured out what.

Shreya's composition, a tale of love and death that is also perhaps a sly reference to the most famous proponent of the ontological argument for you-know-who. This is the dreamy guitar version, and there is also a classical-sounding piano version…

Originally recorded by blues singer Walter Coleman in the 1930s. This is not me singing, it's a different vocalist

Based on the first lines of a Hindu spiritual song I've had stuck in my head for years, this song was included on the RPM 08 world music category compilation. World music--crazy! Wouldn't have expected that, but I'm honored that it was nominated…

Standing in the shower last summer one weekend when my family was out of town, missing them. It made me think about how empty life is without the ones I love most. Also worked in some imagery I've been toying with for a number of years--the river…

This is the beginning of a song that will be about the monkeys named Albert that all died during U.S. rocket missions.

This is another song snippet/idea that sort of sounds like it could be used as a theme song to something.

The drums are kind of neurotic and I'm not really happy with the violin sound but it's a start.

Great little snippet/idea will a killer tuba as the bass instrument.

More playing with BigSeq
Thanks sandbags for the initial idea that started the thing; which was to run piano loops through BigSeq. Then slowing the tempo down to 26 I started adding some other textural things and ended up with this. Then some…

This contains a sample of a Studs Terkel story. My tribute to the great American voice.

Solo acoustic guitar recorded January 2nd 2009. Hope to do a longer more developed version at some point ,but for now just a short version to learn more about using new DAW software.

red cowboy and hot burrito were recordings done for a friend of mine who wanted to check out his new (old) drum machine. Both drum parts are constructed from prerecorded beats (from presets or previous owner, I don't know) and have 4-5 bass tracks…

I thought the hand claps were a bit weird but I wasn't running this dog and pony show. See more notes under "red cowboy" and "I left my toothbrush in St. Louis".

Started playing with a new toy. A plugin called BigSeq from AudioDamage and this came out.
This is a rough mix that I'm not at all sure about.
Suggestions welcome. I'll post an update when I've had some sleep.

This piece was about the various ways sound and shapes can be bent.
Composed for winter percussion - the indoor percussion equivalent of marching band, with a dash of theatrics.

This show was about the various ways we feel grooves - or don't feel them - and the different kinds of grooves we feel in music.

My brother Tomas recorded our Niece Clara improvising this tune, and in light of the lyrics then asked any one to join in and add to it.

The song came from the phrase May I be Worthy. As a christian it's a constant battle to feel worthy of the sacrifice that Jesus made for ME! I thinking of trying to do a chorus for it, but it be fine just the way it is. Suggestions are of course…

well, i thought i'd kick start the idea.

A cover of the Raconteurs' track. Recorded December 31st, 2008. My cat runs into the mic about halfway through...sorry about that.

One from a year ago or so. Never was happy with the recording quality, but never got around to re recording it. My attempt at a kind of late 70's Phil Keaggy thing

This song was written to celebrate freedom, actually, (the Russian at the end is one of the dudes from Freesound.com saying "sound should be free!") after a decade when I wasn't. Props to Shreya, who apparently is like me and will just not go…
Uploaded
Just a fun track I made that I haven't quite figured out how to integrate Shreya's piece 'Hades' over the middle section. A bit jarring but I still like it.

Yo-Yo Ma uploaded this cello part on indabamusic and invited others to create with it. I thought it was a cool idea. I had help with this christmas song from Matthiew, a wandering Parisian trumpet player.

the 3 note sequence was generated, repeated, overlayed, slower and faster in software. it is a small piece. it comes…

An acapella bit of Shreya's. She had recorded it to sound super high-pitched, and when I dropped it down a few octaves, was treated to a wonderful Bjork sound. At her request I threw some hip-hop beats underneath and away we go. Scary and sexy…

Earlier this year I was in a community choir, mostly senior citizens performing songs by bands like Soundgarden and Green Day. One of the songs, "Grateful," had a lyric that went 'In a city of strangers/I have a family of friends.' It was Halloween…

This was the first song Shreya played me, and she said it came to her in a dream, and I believe it. It's flooring, and her vocals/acoustic guitar are relatively untouched. I added the other virtual instruments, and if you listen carefully, you…
