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.

this is one inventive piece! what a mix - are you sure you didn't grow up south of I-10 in Louisiana? You have that Cajun blues thing down and who'd expect you could get oboe and bassoon to work so well with it! wow.

I knew it!! There had to be a snap at the end, no question about it. A very accurate depiction of one of the little b*stards sneaking around my kitchen, eventually meeting up with its impending doom.
Only peanut butter never worked for me - I always ended up with a bare, unsnapped trap. Always had to go with american or cheddar packed tightly around the trigger :)
I've actually watched it a couple times. If I only had some for this wonderful soundtrack!

Excellent. That mouse had it coming. Let me know when you are inclined to do a track about your bear problem: you'll need some heavier percussion for that one!

Oh I love this! Sounds like a psychopathic toad hobbling home from some evil doings! Great musicianship - fab execution! The toad thing says more about my brain, so just ignore it.

I was about to write, "tell the mouse thank you for me, for the wonderful oboe and bassoon, and give it some more peanut butter", but then ... well, you know. Maybe a nice lily, instead?
And but: if a mouse is an oboe *and* a bassoon (choices I quite admire, by the way), what possible combination of instruments would adequately represent the raccoons that keep breaking into my kitchen and stealing all my corn chips and avocadoes? I'm thinking some kind of Gamelan percussion ensemble might almost do the trick ...
... anyway. Wonderful track!
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…
Oh my gosh you are making me laugh! If I had your number, I'd totally call you and tell you that in person! Directory assistance isn't coming up with a "reefwalker", though ... I'll keep trying. All the best in the meantime!

Did the guitar tracks first, followed by bass, then drums and vocals last. I wrote this song in a bookstore, after I came home and recorded it, I realized I made the song too short for all the lyrics.
Im talking, she's texting

I'll take your word for it that this wasn't conveniently edited... but even if it had been... that's some funny sh!t right there. Bravo, sir! I don't record much with an open mic myself... but I do have four feline furbags that insist on 'keeping me company' whilst I record. :-)

Had these backing tracks laying around on my drive for a while and didn't know what to do with them, so grabbed my Ebow and a fretless electric that I built for myself a couple years ago and had a go. My fretless playing is really in its infancy…
Found this track from 1998 - I'm on a Time kick I guess...
Time waits for no one
We are all adrift
Finding ourselves in space
All Lost
Where is my Home?
Where is my Home?
Where is my Home?
Where is my Home?
Time waits for no…
Wrote all the lyrics and most of the melody for this song in one sitting during a particularly busy period in my life.
Just an indulgent little jazz tune poking fun at myself... those who know me well will instantly recognise the lyrics as…
An exercise in dissecting a well known song to see what makes it tick. Drums are looped, bass is not in tune, guitar is not quite right, but I'm slowly getting there. Will update this later. Somewhen...
It's not unusual to chase your girl around with a dull axe, is it? Just kidding - This was 60 tracks and almost a year to finish. I had some help:
Guitars: Tony W
Fadeout Solo: Gnasty
Acoustic/Rhythm Guitars: Me
Phone Message: Tony W &…
Well, I had this crazy idea that *maybe* Buddy Guy was using some microtonal inflections in his cover of Tramp (which are what the "blue notes" are and thought it would be cool to cover it with my fretless guitar. As it turned out it was my ear…
electric mandolin on 3 tracks - 2 bowed (right and left) with viola bow and 1 strummed just a bit and mostly ebowed (center)
Washburn bass
voice with effects
drum loops sliced and diced
We went to visit my dad at his assisted living facility and they have a Yamaha Clavinova on which I improvised for a half hour to provide some entertainment. This is a ~ 3 minute excerpt from about half way through. This was recorded on my Zoom…
Since Norm found himself in an acoustically great room, full of unfinished cabinets I couldn't help but add some acoustic guitar, crank it up and hope you like it Norm!
oh man, I really like this one. I had attempted a tune with this perc track using samples of other kitchen sounds but could never get it right. This sounds really good . nice collab guys !

Very cool tune. Dig it!

One Mo' Time!!!!
Real professional musicianship. This is fantastic. Get yourself a cat. I have a great mouser. All I have to clean up is the little mouse tail.

I love the dancing bass lines - reminds me of scene from Close Encounters where the military/government is 'talking' to the alien craft.
what a great story telling! the oboe is just a delight for the ears..
Excellent. That mouse had it coming. Let me know when you are inclined to do a track about your bear problem: you'll need some heavier percussion for that one!
Nice combination of instruments! Great stuff!

Cool tune love the trap snap end.
I sure enjoyed that.
Wow. Just a great sound, as I've come to expect from such a talented artist!

Great combination of instruments. Has a Peter and the Wolf or Nutcracker visual. Excellent!
It seems like you like to deal with technological themes - c.f. Phonus Interuptus. Cool, man.
This is why I moved my studio to the back porch and tossed the cell phone. :)

Ha, nice one. Just like my "studio."

K, the fretless was exactly what was needed. excellent playing as usual.
but wait, theres a floydish Animals ingredient too in that bouncy bass
wow ! very cool, I like the big open smokey jazz lounge feel
fuzzfilth ! great tune. I think it sounds great as is.
cool sounds, really like this tune, crisp
of corse this is excellent. the sound clips are a really cool addition, I have a pic of Duke in the music room but have never heard his voice.
creative and tech great mix...and ah yes, that solo...Download
very cool tune. love the harp
cross-over rhythms are getting a little easier to follow, in large, do your your posts man ! keep em coming... sounding good.
wow, dude, I cant believe I missed this one, nice Ukulele - like the tone at the end and beginning.
great tune, well timed out and mixed too. I like the guitar notes and tone thoughout
Gritty, raw, cool Tramp tribute. I think the fretless guitar is excellent. perc matches the raw feel.
I like the subtle progression- almost a rick wakeman feel near the second part. I like the simple ending too.
wow, strings really fill up the room. Great sound !
Im glad to see you back ! tight rhythm and cool new Fx's. the new room sounds good - almost like cherry wood...
cool rhythm, sounds like some FX on the bass drum too?
Nice improv. Something also to be said about doing songs in different locations too. background voices a plus.
yeaaaa baby!!!. dig this song. Nice collabatone!
oh man, I really like this one. I had attempted a tune with this perc track using samples of other kitchen sounds but could never get it right. This sounds really good . nice collab guys !
Another sweet tune
