This was well done. I really enjoyed it towards the end as it built up and became prettier.
What about that picture then. Where are we, somewhere like Venezuela?

What a creepy bastard JD was. Good thing they got rid of him in jail. Goes to show you, looks are deceiving. Sad to think humans used to eat one another all the time. Nature can be such an ugly b!tch. A documentary on him said he ate people because he wanted to keep them close, so they would never leave.

that second dissonant chord construction is tense or intense or extensively extreme// this is so neat of a composition it could go on and on IMO :) well done..
A good friend and percussionist Norm Harris contributed percussion to this track – A Cast of Billions - so I ripped out all of the midi percussion and used Norm’s percussion, added a track where I speak Evan’s poem and did some remastering…

Kinda rough. I'm uploading this mainly to share a guitar technique I've been working on. I'm wearing a slide on my picking hand and using it to alter pitches in single line phrases. There's a lot more can be done with this technique that I've…
I 2nd the request for a video. I'm assuming you are pushing the slide off the bridge toward the neck - correct? I've net ever heard of someone putting the slide on the picking hand before - but it sure sounds great!! Beautiful piece of work here Kirk!!
This rough track uses my Blue Just Tuning system (go to www.johnsmusic7.com for details and a photo of the guitar). This is the same tuning Chris Vaisvil used in his Excluded By Peers piece. I hope to add some lead to the track soon.
This blues piece uses my Blue Just tuning system (1/1, 15/14, 9/8, 6/5, 5/4, 4/3, 7/5, 3/2, 8/5, 5/3, 9/5, 15/8, 2/1). For more on my tuning go to www.johnsmusic7.com

Adventurous and epic!
Laid back, twinkly playing.
Intriguing and intricate sounds! Gorgeous!
Nice! Love that sound. Planning on adding a nylon string to my arsenal soon
This was well done. I really enjoyed it towards the end as it built up and became prettier. What about that picture then. Where are we, somewhere like Venezuela?
Love the picture! You know I'm not technical, but I really enjoyed the right ear on the head set. This is a lovely piece.
I do have to say that your composition is ideal for the subject matter. That was great!
Why are all the pretty ones insane? This is unnerving and scary. Thanks!! :)
Amazing!
Woah, awesome percussion - this has some guts! Epic underpinnings! Clever vocals interweaven into a powerful soundscape! A masterpiece!
Lovely!
some really nice guitar phrasing in this.
ahhhh so so nice ., very well done. we need to collaborate on something at some point with soft guitar work like this looped through the piece :)
interesting tones,,great use of GPO, very nice sound quality,,

Such a harmless looking beast....
Terrific! I like the bits that start at 1:30 or so. Cymbals are perfect.
goodness this is pretty, gravity is everywhere. so I have found ...

Love the Eastern flavours you're cooking with more and more these days - great stuff from El Norm also.

this is beautiful - I love the slide. Gosh I sound so amateurish compared to you guys (and Kirk, and Bethan, and Tess, and ..... I'm just wow'd .
I 2nd the request for a video. I'm assuming you are pushing the slide off the bridge toward the neck - correct? I've net ever heard of someone putting the slide on the picking hand before - but it sure sounds great!! Beautiful piece of work here Kirk!!
wow - this harkens back to the Beatniks with a motown funk vibe - that is so cool! - I love your voice Reg!!
would either of you have a rpoblem if I added to this?
excellent! The interplay between guitar and percussion is very good.
I notice "voip" - is this what caused SKYPE to crash? excellent!! brutal!
