I abuse Jeff Lynn's (ELO) wonderful song.
I sing it a minor 3rd lower then originally recorded by ELO since I wanted to use my 12-string guitar and it is a lot easier to play tuned down to reduce the tension a bit.

12 string rhythm…
I saw discussion of Bleu tuning on the yahoo tuning groups – all of which were tempered to a pure octave. Embolden by Andrew Heathwaite’s 88 cent guitar I decided to try the tuning without tempering to make the octave pure. So I made a scala…
Hello, I thought I'd upload a track from 1993's Strange Beauty today. It was reviewed by the WMR (Weekly Module Reviews) team (in 1996 I'm guessing.) These reviews were published on "uesnet" about music posts to the same system - Usenet is an…

5 string bass guitar solo.
Here is me and my 5 string bass, which I really, really like playing despite the pain in my pinky to make those stretches I hear in my mind. The name seems stupid - but way better than STE-018cn.

I also recorded this once through on the Martin and Zoom H-2 yesterday as well. One day I'll do a decent version of this, I promise. For now this is my modest Happy B-day to John.

Chris sent me the the track this afternoon and i took to it straight away and threw it down the cellar to see what would happen and Frankie Zee quickly scribbled the lyrics and Reg sang it or should i say spoke it straight in one take because…
Product of noodling around. Lead guitars are a combo of UAD's Nigel plugin and the Fractal Axe Fx. Clean guitars are the Fractal. The outro guitars are my Princeton Recording amp.

Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode

And when we find ourselves in the place just right,

I reverted my Woods acoustic from 18 edo back to normal 12 edo - and ran 2 tracks of it into guitar rig. Added 5 string bass - and then added the drum pad - which explains the totally odd percussion. The first track I did had an open mic (thus…
I bought a thing called an irig for the I pad and an app Amplitude ...i used the onboard mic on the ipad......the song is my version of take it easy baby it's been Regged.... I still have to work out how to mix it .........I did this while sitting…
Back in December of 2009 I sequenced a number of tracks from Bill (http://alonetone.com/acid ) and didn't release this alternate mix. If you like ambient you may enjoy this. Creative content by Bill, production by me.

Revolution in their minds - the children start to march
Against the world in which they have to live

They're tired of being pushed around

They'll fight the world until they've…
and I see I still have an alien. I guess the only thing to do is to accept that the charts at AT are meaningless. That is what happened at traxinspace.
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
Great beat mate dig it. Thanks for listening and commenting. Cheers.
wow.... just wow... and im only a minute in!
I don't fully understand the technical side but it makes for an interesting listen.
Divine Madness
One of my favorites man. Cool choice for a cover tune.
hi Chris,, soundwise/music interesting,,, i sometimes feel like a tourist in your world of music,, not sure i get it all, but i do know that at some level it helps me to appreciate both my own way and the bigger picture of musical sounds in new ways,,, have a happy 4th R
Nicely done.
Nice one mate great job.
Wild mix mate very cool.
Very very nice!!!
Agree with Norm - and this is a great song that's new to me. Lovely.
Oh man! Arranged like a Bond theme! Bold, bright and brilliant!
Raw blues - love this kind of thing. Am now going to analyse the crap out of your improvised lyrics! :D
Great sound!
The parts around 2.12 are completely uplifting - great stuff!
Perfect title - great conceptualisation. Check out me and my long woooooooooooooooooooords.
Well done. I love the synth work.
interesting,, not sure exactly what i think about it, but it's always neat to hear your musical thoughts
I like your spare take on this!
wild tones...duel survival.

Hi Reg - the drums on Staggering Home is provided by my old band mate Frank Miller. listening....
I'm glad you took this child under your wing and helped it grow up!
no aliens in the fav box - but still 89 favs - interesting.
enjoyed - I certainly do love the background you give to your work.
great enjoyed!!
beautiful!
whoa - I've been missing out - this is sweet!
This has the vibe - not the sound - of T-Rex. I really like this shuffle rock - and cool lyrics!!
I'm playing a hot rodded Fender Mustang in that video. And I want that Taylor so much .. man. I wonder if I should sell the car.
indeed don't quit this one!
Hi Kavin - Alien Renegade is a 6 string steel I love your playing here!
sounds good!
wonderful music - lovely playing!
and, so far, no aliens!
@ Norm - I think she is saying I need you help!
groovy!!
apparently so - seeing another one slipped through the wormhole
well I guess there goes any meaning for the charts at AT.
oh this is really top stuff!
