Inspired by a gorgeous recording on a wax cylinder by the composer, Tanburi Cemil Bey (1873-1916). Performed on politiki lyra (classic kemençe), a small bowed fiddle from Istanbul. Recorded at The Banff Centre, November 2008.

Feels good to just jam and let loose like the old days.

A song for the end of your last set of the night.

My first completed 2013 RPM track. Thanks to Kavin for turning a simple acoustic song into what you hear today. ONE LAST DANCE I never got to tell you what's been on my mind It might be just as well now that we're running out of time…

Play at maximum volume!

This is like, hmm... like talking to a stranger on a train. First, it's nothing about, and then suddenly you discover that you're about to tell your life; or you listen to someone's story, seemingly intricate or simple (and therefore seemed familiar…

(Remastered 22/10/2021) I've been missing in action for ages - apologies to all, I'm about to start listening again too. For ages, I'd been considering a move away from my trusty Boss BR1600 on which I've recorded and mixed nearly everything…

An ambient anthemic piece. The process: - Start with a live take of me playing an iphone app called tonepad. - add camelphat and camelspace - add an Alchemy instance, find a big fat pad, work out a riff - record a single take accompanying the…

This was the first track i demo'd for this year's RPM but i just got round to tidying it up and adding the third verse. A bit of a feel good record!

Used Michelangelo's percussion track.

DREAMING Inside the dream I'm drowning I struggle for the shore I'm swimming 'neath the surface I'm sinking ever more While Davy Jones is laughing And Neptune scoffs at me I'm swimming on with purpose I'm frantic to be free - The…

There's a pretty good video for this song on YOUTUBE. We wrote this song years ago...90's in fact.

A lonely little improv in Dminor tuning.

Track 3 from The Bunker 2013 Summer Breeze The summer breeze Brings it all back to me starlight skies Pull me to my knees to cry But the Blue sky and the sun gives me hope love will come to me again The greys skies Take my hope…

Been carrying this around since 1982, finally recorded it. Composed when we were expecting our first child, hence the anxiety.

Guitar and vocals. Kind of the opposite of last years 'Honey, Why You Stay With Me'.

I recently bought the Imperfect Samples [Braunschweig Upright](http://www.imperfectsamples.com/website/samples/braunschweig/braunschweiguprightpiano.php) (Pro) sampled piano for Kontakt after falling in love with the sound of the demos. I have…

Vocals by Greg Connor, lyrics by Connor and Merry Bear, music by Bear. And y'all thought the Hokey Pokey was what it was all about! This song is 4 dimensional – up/down, left/right, in/out, now/then. BIG THANKS to Greg Connor for fabulous vocals…
