We shared some love and laughter
Lived through some tears and pain
Now that you’ve gone to hereafter
Or somewhere I can’t explain
I’ve searched in every empty room
Every cupboard every case
I know you’ve left a mark somewhere

Maybe should have saved this for Halloween. Another oldie, this was really just a demo - keyboard, drum machine and voices/effects on a cassette - the whole thing recorded via the built-in mic of a second cassette player. Hi-tech or what ? Although…

a dark rainy night, warmth in a dark spot. a steady rythym , fuck how do you spell rythmym

this one is a tepid tale of an intrepid adventurer, without words

there is some force to this intro, it yeilds to a thoroughly slave to rythym (sp) intense galactification. there is no hope for release, we are cycleanimals.

this is ambient stuff but I am unsure of the way it has been labeled..

Stepping outside of my normal "dub" vibe...this track was an experiment that started out as some support tracks for a live performance at a club for a Japanese band I was producing about 11 or 12 years ago. I had used a bunch of drum tracks and…

This is a song from my RPM Challenge 2011 album "Decade Interrupted". This is a remixed - remastered version from the original RPM Challenge release. The title actually comes from the name of the synth setting used on the song, but the vibe is…

Another one created by bouncing tracks between 2 ordinary cassette recorders. Includes some of my earliest samples [made on cassette], not to mention chanting Buddhist monks and the voice of T.S. Eliot reading from 'Four Quartets'. Tried to fit…

I've always been a fan of the Allman Brothers Band!
This is one of my favorites that they do....
I played all the music to this and then I asked Mike [Holdempok] to put down the vox....

I hadn't done an improvisation to tape for a few weeks, which on the one hand is not a bad thing: I have a number of concrete ideas that are still waiting for a recording, and have made a few in the last couple weeks, too. In any event, I took…

The planxty is about as high a form as one can get, and while this isn't a planxty in a traditional, musical sense, Tom deserves a tune.
Tom is, indeed, just Tom as far as I know, and I did meet him in AA. His bottom--how low he went, that is…

I've had this tune for a while, but for whatever reason never had a decent approach to the arrangement until the last few weeks. I'm pleased with how it turned out, and particularly like how I stole a Sun Records Johnny Cash arrangement for the…

I've been listening to a ton of free jazz recently, and having just read Amiri Baraka's Black Music, I checked out Albert Ayler, about whom I'd heard for years. I was floored.
I knew that John Fahey was a fanatic, and thought I'm not the world…

This, it turns out somewhat surprisingly to me, is the first original, vocal tune I've posted here. So be it: I like the tune, and the recording, after an initial try that was not only in too high a key for my voice (never a good idea) but was…

Aside from the drum machine, this is a fully vintage analog take on what the young whipper snappers these days are calling "dub-step." The distorted guitar sound is actually fret-less bass (as is the case with all my tracks because I only own…

As an aside, I’ve also made a page on Bandcamp for my music.
I was listening yesterday morning to the Carolina Chocolate Drops, and this tune, the first on their record, Dona’s Got a Ramblin’ Mind (or here, in iTunes), came on. Their version…

I used to spend time with my 4-track just starting to drop track after track, building up a recording as it came. I hadn’t done this for well over a decade until I did that last recording, a bit over a week ago. This one has a more conventional…
