:) 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…

You're just kidding yourself if you thought I could resist the chance to add a bit of percussion to this wonderful song by Osckilo & Launched. I used Paiste Sound Discs to create a 3vs.4 polyrhythm against the delightful underlying 4/4 Spanish…
Abakua refers to a secret, Afro-Cuban, male society of percussionists - as I understand it, one had to be initiated into this society before they would be taught how to play percussion in their style. One of their hallmarks is to impose what I…
CROSS-OVER POLYRHYTHMS
This is actually a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with **different meters** (i.e., a different numbers of beats/measure) are played at the **same tempo**: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms…
Another wacky production from the stretchy, bouncy, and elastic world of Rubber. Special thanks to Mark (Launched) for writing this one for us.
We had a whole bunch of fun with this song and you will too.
Enjoy!

When I wrote this song.... It was about staying true to your Ideals...
In fact... It is about a person that put me in a very difficult situation....
One that effected my life for a while... Just for doing the right thing...
I think…
Do you remember those in your past who made your life more magical?

strong, excellent
wow, what a cool collab. the 3 musicians and instrument sounds mix well. I would crash into this late night show any day of the week
complex pattern and really good timing. Great percussion track S to F
have to agree with launched, good song-crafting here. catchy
oh my, What a great opener... juicy middle section and cool vocals - nice one guys
This is a great tune. clean and complete
polyrhythms, thanks for explaining that - Tasty percussion. Also, Vaisvil does a great job playing along this groove
F*ckin great song, Just gets better as it moves along...needs volume
2nd listen. Cool collab, vox keeps reminding me of John Hall ( king missile)
Fantastic. Fav.
This has all the ear tags of a great heavy metal song. I like the march feel of the guitar riff throughout and the drums in the back
Tasty ! Sort of reminds me of the endless summer days at Dead concerts. Very good gents.!
Oh ya man, great track. Agree with savage that crunchy syth really hooks it. Almost Beck-ish
cool song, like the subtle transitions
wow, cool track I like this one.. still pondering just how deep the variety of your stuff is. . Is there a genre yet unturned?????
Downloaded at 18 secs. Just like the first Doors cover I heard from you, its unique enough to almost not be a cover at all - I like that.
This is a cool song, I like the vox and the voice rolls in the background too
Welcome to AT, Laid back ambient track. This one does have a feeling of enormity. I get the feeling this track could go on beyond 530 ?:??
This is a great song to cover. Im pretty sure I heard a beer open near the end of the song.!
Has an opening flavor of Nick Drake. Great song. Sweet collab
