I'm working on making this old song from Two Old Friends into a better version. Today I got inspired to pick up my daughter's 3/4 size Martin (which makes the runs easier) and recorded this on my Zoom H2.

I resorted to some unmarked old CDRs in the car today on my way to and from my Dad's (I brought him a new laptop) and found one of the earlier collaborations between Norm and myself.

This was way too short! Fabulous soundscape you guys painted. I think it should at least segue into something.
I listened to this again on headphones, which was well worth it!

This song is special to me for a few reasons: one of which is that this was my very first on-line collaboration, just a few days after I had begun to learn the very basics of recording/mixing. Chris has been very kind to put up with my steep learning curve: it's been a very educational (and humbling) experience.

Found this track from 1998 - I'm on a Time kick I guess...
Time waits for no one
We are all adrift
Finding ourselves in space
All Lost
Where is my Home?
Where is my Home?
Where is my Home?
Where is my Home?
Time waits for no…
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…
I had some fun this afternoon with a bluesy tune - and ran out of time for singing and my vocals are not good - wanna try?
I need to remember to tune my guitars down when I want to sing - that would make my life easier.
No doubt you have heard parts of this before.
Guys - if I could play like this I would not be making a living as a chemist! This is a midi file I ran through pianoteq - I put this together in an hour this morning and I wanted to share before…
my brain on my ex - originates from 1996 - details below.
Dulled
What can I tell you?
I hold nothing inside
My brain aches from lack of....
Direction
I am shriveling up inside
Having not one thing to express
And my feelings are dulled…

Well, I make no claim to the authenticity of Ethno 2 samples - though assuming they are top notch is probably a safe bet. I just released a revised version to my private mailing list and here are the instruments:
This piece is a quasi-middle eastern section using the celtic 12, E, and D guitars and the lead Electric Bouzouki plus acoustic bass in Zurna tuning and the percussion includes Timbales, gong, Bendir, Daires, Darbuka, Tamborin, and Sistres.
Backyard Ghost sent me something to work on...i added my own touch and arranged it...i sent it to him and he added another of his touches and rearranged it and You've Had My Tears is the end result...we both love this collaboration...expect more…
Abakua refers to a secret, Afro-Cuban, male society of percussionists - as I understand it, one had to be initiated into this society before they would be taught how to play percussion in their style. One of their hallmarks is to impose what I…

This is one of my first alonetone collaborations written by Louis Smit.
Everyone should go listen to some of his tunes. Louis is a very original
and talented folk style acoustic guitarist- singer - songwriter.
You can hear him here.

This is a special request by Sister.
It's kinda sloppy. Frankly, because I suck at it :)
I'm not much of a cover musician but I gave it hell.
It's mostly analog. MIDI drums, DB33 organ patch,
strat leads, and Ibanez chords, Dean bass…
Hi - I enjoyed this composition very much. I would like to mention though that the volume was very low. So much so I have to normalize it to listen reasonably. Do you lack software to do this type of manipulation? (or was this on purpose?) In any event this piece impressed me enough to go through your series of sonatas!
CROSS-OVER POLYRHYTHMS
This is actually a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with **different meters** (i.e., a different numbers of beats/measure) are played at the **same tempo**: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms…
Many nebulae form from the gravitational collapse of gas in the interstellar medium. As the material collapses under its own weight, massive stars may form in the center, and their ultraviolet radiation ionises the surrounding gas, making it visible…

pretty cool tune Vaisvil...dig it!
Great meter changes here and I love the lyrics.
This was way too short! Fabulous soundscape you guys painted. I think it should at least segue into something. I listened to this again on headphones, which was well worth it!
Very cool!
Nice one mate dig it. Thanks for your recent comments mate.

Very fine!
marvelous!
Deeeelish(ious!) I love home made instruments. I want to do something like that someday. Very cool tune!
Cool! Who else would have thought of using a towel bar for a bridge
I like the tone of this thing. cool that this is a home made instrument too.
sounds asian... interesting

wow. You have captured what St. Casimir cemetery sounds like at 4 am on a spooky fall night...
Man alive!! this is astounding!! what a trip!
As for the song icon for Don't Look Down - a friend made it for me and I am not sure what he used. Subway is a good bet.

this is wonderfully sad and mysterious!
beyond just excellent! This is a trip through space to another place, time, and existence! I can't say enough!
Excellent!!
Excellent sounds and I keep wanting to hear more of her :-) I especially like the percussion.
Beautiful!! In composition and execution.
Nice tune - so this is a cover?
Nice tune - like the production
nice an heavy!
entrancing! Not at all what I expected with "march" in the name - much more subtle and smooth - I enjoyed this one very much!
Awesome!!! This is so perfect!
nice, really nice!

welcome! And excellent track!
Aengus is all Ethno 2.
