Norm has been teaching a master's class in percussion and gave me (a lot!!) of guidance to try to add bass properly to this. I added 5 string bass, Fender Mustang and GR-20 sax to his excellent Tumbao track. We hope you enjoy it.

Hey man I always open to ideas! I tried it and I am really glad I did! I was in a space today thinking "yeah but..." And I try not to get into that mode. Even though I might not always agree with an idea...It does not make them wrong. I spent to much of my life as an...well...an a**hole..it's something I feel I can always improve on, and always try to better myself as a human being and this strange rock we call earth. Did I make myself sound intelligent? Ha ha :) glad you liked it man.

My Life has Become
I have all of these memories
That come on back to me
I don't know what to do
I don't know what I should do with them
Out of nowhere they cover me...
Like a breaking beam of light
Like the star dust in the night
Like…
This piece is a digital remaster of a track done on 4-track cassette back in 1987 for the Modern Clones album.
Christ Killers
Take me in and We defy!
We destroy all life
We have no respect
We destroy all life
We are the Christ killers…
I bought a $50 Woods DW-15 acoustic dreadnought 12 note per octave guitar at Guitar Center, fret wire, and a fret saw.
After a couple days of work I made a usable 18 note per octave guitar.
Most of the details and lots of pictures are on my facebook…
East-West Choir went on sale and I received and installed my copy yesterday. So this is a quick improvisation for ImprovFriday. Boys choir, double bass, tuba, celesta, bass drum, timpani and electronics.

improvisation with pianoteq and hollywood strings
I am feeling like all of my improvisations sound the same again. I probably need to devote even more time to scoring - and building instruments.
Originally recorded in 1996, this is an excerpt of a Time Lag Accumulation of sounds from a Roland JX-3P, with some backward voices (the tape was "liberated" from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation after its useful days were over and re-used…
I support the CBC liberation front! Definitely a unique soundscape here! I wonder what you and Bill Newbold could come up with in a collaboration. It might be fun!
I have mashed Shane Cadman and Chris Vaisvil and myself. this is a neat mix -- I took Shane Cadman's song here and then with Chris's mandolin work I stretched it out to match the length of Shane's Song as well as doing the same with two drum…
Nice neoclassical trio - very pleasant!
The octave mandolin is available at music stores that deal in folk / country instruments. I bought mine used and is made by Trinity College. Not sure if they are still in business. Its double the size and not surprisingly tuned as a regular mandolin but an octave below. Search for Sierra Hull on youtube - excellent mandolin player and has some videos that compare the two.
So, here is the third and final Movement of my first Piano Concerto...have really enjoyed this project. I will soon now be adding the complete Work to this site too.
A collaboration with Chris Vaisvil! I'm so jazzed he took a Thumbjam sketch of an idea and ran with it. Either an alternate Star Wars imperial march or Amon Duul jamming with Mahavishnu, don't know which.
Chris Vaisvil: guitars
Kavin.: Synths…

On theme and on message! Really like this! To quote Rodney King - "I just want to say – you know – can we all get along? Can we, can we get along?"
nice work - somewhat subdued and introspective
nice work here!
Thank you for putting this together! Sounds great!
