Samples used in this tune from the NY subway this summer. Inspired by Dave Dunseath
3-12, just uploaded a new version of this with guitar- and some other changes
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.
PS, and yes I could hear you smoking along with the engine on smoke break.
Stop that, or I will take your bull-horn away and go hang out with the wheels.
"Late for the late shift". "The seats are out of cash". I just love that.
I'm laughing at the sounds of that crappy engine attempting to turn over... it's strange to hear those sounds in the absence of some rather colorful language!
Hey, and there ain't nothin' wrong with 100bpm.

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
Thanks to Sister Savage for helping us debut our new project. As busy as she is, Sister managed a bit of time and some great Jovian vox for us.
This piece or art is unique, sublime, and psychedelic.

Many thanks to Kirk Lynch, a real gentleman and a pleasure to jam with.
His tracks are the heart of this tune.
Lyrics:
I have a a pain
deep in my Chest
I can’t Breathe
as I Light my cigarette
Oh my head, Woe is me
Oh my head, Woe is me
But…
For this Mother's Day week, a conga improvisation dedicated to Saint Monica and all the other mothers who surreptitiously provide for and incessantly pray for their children. Thanks Mom!
** this could really use a tasty melody to go with…
This track is off of the third CD. This is an improv recorded one afternoon in my basement recording studio. Recorded with my Huss and Dalton MJC in standard tuning.
Enjoying a few tracks on this site with Indian flavor lately. My brothers legs were so red from slapping them to get the perc sounds in this track, I had to laugh, That alone was worth doing the song ;)
Enjoy # 92
Spicy percussion provided by Norm
Thanks guys for the comments. Yes, Norm is my brother he did the percussion on this track. The other tracks are 2 stereo tracks for guitar and a 3rd for the sitar sample ( I wish I had a real one to play!)
This is our little bundle of joy now grown up to be 10 years old. She took up the flute this year at school and this is her first effort in front of my microphone.
She decided on the flute after watching some vids of Ian Anderson and Jethro Tull…
The vodka, ahhh. One of 3 that I recorded to a dimming flashlight during a power outage.
One take into the Micro BR hole with some harmony and noodle overdubs.
Vodka
I want the vodka
'Cause I know it's gonna make me play better…
Reworked this one last night...

A little scratch track from a few months ago. A song about the trials and tribulations of being 11 years old. Watching Six Million Dollar Man, dodging bullies and pretending our bicycles were Harleys.
I was at a friends house and saw a little…

Buddah defined compassion as "a trembling of the heart."
Details: Epiphone Les Paul (DADGAD/DADGAD Capo VII), Seymour Duncan Pickups, POD XT, Boss RC-20 Looper, EBow, Audacity.
Kind of a Sonic Youth version of the old folk tune. This was with my band Lincoln The Chain. Our vision was to create new and weird versions of tunes from the old timey days. Traveling music for post apocalyptic underground railroad...
As the song says, this is a song I wrote for the RPM Challenge. I simply took my actual experience beginning at 12 midnight on February 1st, and a couple or three hours later I had my first song. The player takes away the intensity of this track…
