I hijacked Norbert Oldani's excellent piano improvisation and add some guitar to it.
His original is here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5150711/PianoI911.mp3
I salivated over this $3,500 guitar last night. I had the "expensive guitar room" at Guitar Center to myself so I played and recorded on my zoom H2. Yes, this is guitar p0rn...

This is an improvisation I did live on ustream - but the audio quality was horrific - fortunately I had recorded everything in Sonar so I used Sony Vegas to make this into something listenable. Since the frame rate was messed up (you can see…
This improvisation (chords, melody and lyrics) is complete fiction and any resemblance to anything at all is just a coincidence.

Hi - thought I'd throw up an older piece today while I have time (doing work at the new house later). This is an improvisation with my Fender Mustang / Roland GR-20 combination retuned on the fly to 9 notes per octave "Sorog" tuning. I think…
Yes, as a matter of practicality one performs with volume greater than the actual Fender (headphones to the GR-20, amplification of the Roland GR-20 ) - although I have mixed the "normal" and "new" tunings together and in some cases that sounds nice and fairly unique.
Really nothing more than some voice leading practice. Unfortunately, I had no keyboard or orchestral samples when I did this, so I used Lilypond and TiMidity++ and step programmed it in a text editor. I've since bought Cubase and EastWest/QuantumLeap…
As chance had it, I found myself in an acoustically great room, full of cajons! Well, they were unfinished cabinets actually, but they had lovely tones. Since this is the stuff dreams are made of, I had no choice but to seize the opportunity and…
well.... tell your wife you'll build her a new addition if she lets you keep this room as is :-)
nice - the sound is so surprisingly robust and resonate in tone.
Caveat emptor: I did absolutely none of the drumming in this piece.
WORLD PREMIER! FIRST RECORDING OF THIS PATTERN - EVER!
My friend Kokou "Alex" Yemey called me a few days ago with some urgency in his voice: "I must record this before…
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…
Hi, The Suicide is programmed actually and uses Kontakt sounds. I have a large number of manuscripts which I created in college and shortly after (before 90's no computer program I had could let me score reasonably). In this case, The Suicide, was scored at an upright piano and I could play it at the time. Its really easy to play.
The last track that I'm going to upload for a while. I will be re-recording a few songs to release a LP under my own name. Hopefully it'll be good :)
This one is another exploration using loops and delays. I hope you like it!
A second version with the initial lead guitar standing alone...a little cluttered after a few listens and some constructive feedback!
Norm's Groove for St Monica inspired this one. Thanks Norm!
Lead Guitar, bass guitar and acoustic guitar…
still one of my personal faves. - although i'd wish to redo some parts, i'm stuck with this version, since i don't own one of the synths used there anymore..

If you have the fever and the only cure is more tambourine, here it is.
MORE TAMBOURINE SOLOS!! (But you should probably wait until you have the house to yourself...)
last eve there was a beautiful moon
dancing in a blue black sky
outside my piano room, it called to me
this tune is a one take playful moment, loosely based on the main theme from the 2nd mov of my piano sonata,,, i only toned down about…
Hey Richard - for Rumba - the guitar tunings are standard so if you want to play along on your piano it should work. If I remember correctly Brian laid down a basic I-IV-V in D major. I put 7th chords on top of that.
Just another time traveling love song from your ole Uncle Paul.
Mostly MIDI synths and some analog bass and screaming Ibanez.
Drum loops too. I was going to drum it, but these two loops really kinda drive it along.
Enjoy.....
filled…

Great playing mate very cool.
Ehat is one full sound , i love it Rob
In my half-century, I don't recall ever seeing this kind of string configuration. I'm gettin' excited. Great porn.
I want one :)
Wow! is that a Fender Jazzmaster?? Nice. They (Fender) say Jazzmaster players are the movers of music.
Stunning arrangement!
Ha ha, let it out, Chris! :) Love the "aint that true" spoken part - very cheeky.
Reaches a musical height that I can only dream of. Superb
Yes, I can see the diaphanous raiments floating about in true Minerva splendour! Most beautiful, Chris.
nice song :) I like the lyrics
wonderful ........
Beutiful combination of instruments!
Very Nice! Lovely vocals and arrangement
Awesome ha ha, love Norm's comment. Nice chord progression.
I've tried fav'ing this 70 times but so far no success.

Lol :)
Cool psych folk. Is that a 12 string?
Addictive chord sequence
Fatherless, I would say! Very strong and determined strumming there Chris!

This is a great tune - I love the percussion and the deep deep sounds.

nicely done - sounds a bit floydish. Introspective Roger Waters.
all of the compositions are wonderful - I feel emotion from your work.
this is a very nice progression against a pedal point and exposition. I agree the room acoustics are really great - it sounds great!!
very classical period sounding.
well.... tell your wife you'll build her a new addition if she lets you keep this room as is :-) nice - the sound is so surprisingly robust and resonate in tone.
wow - this is complicated!! and cool!

wonderful!! So this is in part classical guitar? If so great tone!
bizarrely the opening bass riff sounds like the theme to green acres - a usa 60's sitcom.
sounds like my ferrets playing!
excellent!
yes! love the sounds here
this is nice indeed!!
one of my personal favorites too :-)
Dude! You own this place!!

I'll see what I can up with.
nice work!!
