Thank you for the comments on Sympathy for a Friend. I didn't use a synthesizer. All of the sound is from one take on my 19 note per octave guitar + effects.
Sort of a Tuesday improv...
Built up around a synth texture that I built up with:
Operator->FilterStation->Volcano->Kombinat->Panstation->RP-Delay
(what's the fun in having plugins if you can't abuse them)
Heres a collab with Wildgeas Music a beautiful bit of music hope i did it justice with the vocal............
Tomorrow (Lyrics)
I know the curse of the darkness is coming
those dark nights that will feed upon my soul
with no forward glance of tomorrow…
So after hearing some of Stephen Krell's outstanding picking, I asked him if he'd like to play along with any of my songs... I can't be happier with the one he picked to add his banjo to (seeing as how the song is written about my favorite Pete…
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!
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!!

Sounds lovely Chris. Beautifully composed picture too. Bee
Did John play this? Excellent work!
Perfect for a Sat' afternoon, after the grocery rush. "A national Acrobat" kicks ass!
great track and subject matter is something I can relate to. I am assuming your situation has improved.
I love this song. Amazing track.. strong vox in this. POWER
great tune, fine collab gents!
suspenceful i must say nice job
Nice track, Vaisvil. It feels like two competing ideas that drift back and forth between uneasy and dreamy.
Very nice. Sounds like the music track for a Chaplin or Keaton silent movie.
Beautiful .....
Well played.
Very tasty track. I like!
Peculiar.....no resolve...experimental journey.
pretty cool,, reminds me a bit of Vince G. (the fellow who did cast your fate to the wind and the Charlie Brown sound tracks) there's a nice whole feeling to this r

What do you have in your ambient rig? I am enjoying your work!
Hi Bethan - I have no idea who played it - but they did an excellent job. The midi file I found somewhere in the 90's.
wow - another side totally! I like the string / piano combination.

The cello work is especially good.
