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 song is not for everyone but I like it because its a live recording with a single instrument using infinity delay FX. (I turned on the loop delay at :09 after the guitar was flat on the floor.)
All the sounds are made with an acoustic bass…
Norm played the percussion first, which is a Bembe pattern; I couldnt help playing a melody and creating lyrics for this perc track. Thanks for the listen, Enjoy!
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 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…
this was originally a song about breaking through paradigms but turned into a song about a girl.
Keys and string samples from Korg, MIDI with the old Ensoniq,
one diving board.
Thanks for the listen ,enjoy... RW
3 guitar tracks followed by a track with the trap set. A lot of alt tuning lately posted on AT which I like. This guitar was tuned to an open G. After I did it, I thought the sound was more like a backwoods, hillbilly song.
Unfortunately…
Oh well, nothing like going to a middle school music function to break writers block, all those posters and flare about achievement...
Special thanks to my sons middle school band, The Preston Pumas playing at the end !
Different recording here as the electric guitar, bass guitar were not plugged in, just recorded raw with a power mic and then EQ'ed to make it sound amped - pardon mistakes!

@ vaIsvil, ya that's right! It was an accident. I just wanted to get a rough draft song down in my head. I had no idea the electric guitars could sound "plugged in" by just EQ tweaking post production The string strumming is pronounced but seems to keep the tempo...

Nice song - I did finally get around to listening to it :-) So this is literally unplugged hard bodied normally electric instruments - I've never heard of this being done before - awesome idea!!
The door of my heart is now open.
I am free
I am free to love
free to love like you do
I am free
I am free to give
I am free to give my love to whom i choose
Oh my heart I release you from your prison cell
I alone can be the one…
The chorus of this groove is in 5/4 and the verse in 9/4. You can hear me fall apart at the very end… guess I got worried.
Lyrics:
*Try not to get worried*
*I am with you always*
*Try not to get worried*
*And don’t forget*
*Simply…
this was a little audio scrap book of some of our youngest sons favorite knock knock jokes enhanced with some tastey harmonized guitar... a family favorite
The reunion was on...they came from far and wide....it was held on Easter Sunday down at.....the new cellar of Regs...chiseled in to the Yorkshire Granite ....sound proofed....bomb proof.....as they say it started with a beat...everything was…
I was thumbing a ride along a hot, deserted Caribbean road. When Steve pulled up in this vintage pre-war Chevy, I was very grateful. It just so happened he was heading to the same cantina I was, so we kicked back with a pitcher of mojitos…
ha! thanks for the comments guys. The car passing that POS on the highway was a viper- I just love that sound.
Norm, ill be hanging out with the wheels tonight if anyone cares to join me.
This track is actually 99.583333% M.T.C. But, I needed an easy project for July, since I didn't have a lot of time last month. He had published it as a "B-Side" called "Quarter of a 60th Spanish." For fun, I just added a few subtle twists. Probably…

Damn, that's good.
Wow... this is pretty interesting. It evolves and moves in ways I didnt expect. Well done!
Like the groove!

That dog ain't never coming back. But she completes the trilogy.

El Classico!! Love this!!

That's pretty neat!

sweet, subtle. nice playing. the fxs are just right for the feel
I like the goove here bro! The lyrics help bring out the count I'm Percussion illiterate
Moooooooo! I love that. This song will be even cooler for you in about 5 years. Man they grow up fast
gets me in the mood for the MS150 to key largo this weekend brohaun! gotta find the old sandals and a frosty one
have visions of slow motion perfect wave rides when i hear this. nothing too big. a nice long 5 ft barrel
welcome home. The granite bomb proof cellar has just the right acoustic feel. Brilliant

Great collab. Love the laided back breezy feel. Instafav

one last song to download before boarding the plane thanks for posting, great song crafting here
cool samples throughout this one. great mixing
great tune, double vox sound great
such a great all around gritty rock tune.
great tune, wide open with great mix
this one grabs my attention. It could easily be on the bitter dregs album. Like the emotion in the guitar.
you have to blow the smoke out of the room after a song like this. Always interesting hearing you play guitar,sounds wicked with the keys
Nice new one from you. cool tune, called the HW signature sound from across the room
