:) I almost put best subject matter for a song but that would have to go to Phonus Interuptus (spelling?) I love that song, actually best mix should go to all your recordings...your songs always sound so damn good!
It seems a lot of you record with open mics and can relate. I record 1 track at a time with usually 4 or 5 tracks. So, Im only asking for about 15 minutes of Silence...IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK??? Anyway, my house is so loud, I get a lot of bloopers…
drip by drip..
I did the guitar and bass tracks first, then procured my 10 year olds cello for the main bass line :) I also tried my luck playing cello with a bow on this track- which was a new experience.
The trumpet and violin bits are played…
This is a recording of Norm and me playing together a few months ago. I didnt have any percussion instruments so Norm was on a Roland electric trap set and I had a cello. I looped some of the stuff we did that night, and retrofitted the rest…
I have issues at my house, sometimes they manifest themselves in my tracks. In this case, the bassoon and oboe represent the mouse. The guitar is the peanut-butter.

You never would have caught me playing this genre a few years ago. WHat the hell happened ??
All the instruments were recorded with an open mic at my house. Which, as you know is always a chaotic place to record :) If you listen hard enough…

This is my first effort with real bongos. I've been so inspired by Norm's talents, that I had to give it a try. I borrowed a set of bongos from my brother Asa.

A few of you know I accidentally wiped out one of my SD cards that had all my works in progress on it. I'm just starting to piece it all together again - A slow process. This was supposed to be a reprise to "In My Head", but ended up being in…
So there I was, trying hard to complete a big production that I've been working on for ages, and I was getting nowhere. In frustration I started composing this little thing, and it quickly evolved into a nice piece of music all of its own. Funny…
Spontaneous little ditty about carelessness and always staying on the move. Quite different from the murky, depressing trite I always seem to end up composing.
This started out as a loose solo guitar jam around a simple chord sequence, and…
Another song from the archive... Written about a friend who somehow seemed to come out of her general sad manner... Thoughts go back to a lunar eclipse when the girl I was standing next to to watch it (way back in college) disappeared from sight…
As chance had it, I found myself in an acoustically great room, full of cajons! Well, they were unfinished cabinets actually, but they had lovely tones. Since this is the stuff dreams are made of, I had no choice but to seize the opportunity and…

WORLD PREMIER! FIRST RECORDING OF THIS PATTERN - EVER!
My friend Kokou "Alex" Yemey called me a few days ago with some urgency in his voice: "I must record this before…
Dude, of course this is an instant fav. Yemey and I were hanging out in Togo when I first showed him this pattern. I call it the "King of Windsor" pattern. Naturally, he couldnt tell you this as his english is Kwaai. The lyrics are old too, its about my brother, Norm, the last time he went pheasant hunting. Excellent, man thanks for sharing this

Great wide open brotha ! Some floydish feelings too. Always like to hear your guitar work
This is one of my favs by you. Very ,very good
magic tune, great vocals
Been listening For a while in the car. This is a really great tune. I wish I could fav again. Outstanding.
cool vocals and lyrics, fits well into the song

Ha ! Launched, your absolutely right ! How could I have overlooked this? man, the next song I do... mouse trap on the 4's
really takes on an Flyodish feel ( animals?) around 130
Nice ! The perc is cool I can practically hear the burn in your forearms at 1;30
cool change ups and groove throughout, Even without it mentioned, I think I would have been compelled to mention its Radiohead feel
excellent AF
very cool video with your song had to play it a few times. the strings add a powerful touch
bummer about the memory card, I know the feeling, losing songs blows. I like the song, lyrics are awesome too
Nice collab- the harp is a great touch to drive this blues track home
vocal samples (?) seeded within this song are cool. drums and keys are perfect.
This song is an instant Fav. The guitar riffs are excellent. Welcome to AT !
yes, great lyrics. I agree with Richard, this would have a good feel as a live performance.
they sound excellent ! Is there a way you can stop with your kitchen remodel and keep the cabinets as they are???
great song, cant believe I hadn't heard this yet!
