Thought I'd try an improv with two capos to get an open C tuning.

The last piece I improvised this past weekend for my dad and the residents who wanted to listen.

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

I *finally* found a solution for my two broken tuning machines on my old beat up mandolin. After getting the machines fixed I decided to take it for a spin. This is an improvisation as recorded on my Zoom H2 with just a bit of compression.

Okay this is one for the serious noise freaks only. This is three instances of Loop Shifter that I played in real time using my Novation Launchpad. Turns out the launchpad makes a great keyboard for loop shifter, better than a real keyboard…

BINGE!

gig rehearsal recordings edit.

bit of brightness, it was sort of a new year's fanfare.

Slightly related to the song about the cheese. Alternative progression for a verse or chorus (or whatever)
