Improvisation based very loosely on the chord progression for "Four On Six."

Don't remember the improvisation seed for this one either.

Don't remember what the improvisation seed was for this one... more of a "Let's do another Asymptotic Taste album, shall we?"

Improvisation based on a chord progression of root-5-9 chords

Improvisation based on the "Hendrix chord" (7#9)

Improvisation very (VERY) loosely based on the chord progression for jazz tune "Move."
Uploaded
This one was improvised based on mostly playing harmonics 12 frets above the fretted note.
Uploaded
The improvisation concept behind this was to only change one note at a time out of a group of three, slowly morphing the tune, except for a couple times that I forgot what I was doing.

This used the grain delay in Guitar Rig to get the shimmery sound in the background. Otherwise I don't remember what the actual improvisation thread was.

Sometimes you just look at your capo and think... hey, I aint used you for a while - its rough and sloppy but hey... just like me!

Short(?) intro to the album; counterpoint to the extended outro "Mantra 2"

I guess this would be the "centerpiece" of the album. Like the rest of the album it really stumbles along the line between droney and simply repetitive, and it needs a bit of a reworking to reach its potential.

The lyrics continue the theme of the previous track, if you care about that sort of thing.
