I *finally* found a solution for my two broken tuning machines on my old beat up mandolin. After getting the machines fixed I decided to take it for a spin. This is an improvisation as recorded on my Zoom H2 with just a bit of compression.

This is a smooth jazz piece built around Norm Harris' percussion using Garritan Jazz and Big Band sample set with the Aria player and a touch of tonehammer's Francesca sample set. Something Norm and I did last April.
Scored for upright bass…

cool. I like your range of work (a fellow eclectic).
re: twikk, there may be some beating effects thought they weren't explicitly planned. there's certainly a crapload of hard, random panning.

Not terribly odd except for how I did it with Fretless gutiar.
I recently bought a used Fender Squier for $60, pulled the frets with pliers, filled the cuts with plastic wood, sanded, and jammed. Took about 2 hours to make the guitar fretless…
This started as my fretless guitar bowed and picked with various effects. I then applied Paul's Extreme Stretch at 8x and also with Just Intonation harmonic constraints similar to Keys at Lowes - then the 4 tracks were loaded into Sonar 8.5…

Another recent song somehow not posted to AT (?) cleaning house this weekend.
Had the privilege of playing around with a cello in the house.
Dont know how to play the damn thing but too fun not adding it in the mix
Working through a barrage of songs over two different computers. thought I posted this already but its not on AT. (?)
A little re-tooling on this one today as well.
Enjoy- Reef
First one for a long time thanks for listening .... thought i'd try playing everything...still got to work on that bass and drums

The pages of the book were leaking into the dream
Wading through waters of time, an unconscious stream

Takes you by force into the deep

Damn! Feels good to hit the Upload button again!
Completed RPM 17. this is the last track!!. the album is my first run through with logic pro ( dumping pro tools and the monthly subscription fee)
I feel great playing again.. been so long…
I wrote this song about 2 years ago and shared it here on Alonetone back then. I decided to do a studio recording of it recently. With the help of the team at F5 Soundhouse here in Minneapolis we've created this updated version. I hope you enjoy…
Here's the second song I recently decided to do with a studio recording from one I wrote and posted here a while ago as a purely vocal version. It's one of my favorites.... I hope you'll enjoy it too

I decided to keep working on this one a bit on the "keep messing with it" program.... added some backing vocals and some piano.... kind of like where its heading after the one take wonder before... Any other suggestions are very welcome…

I rearranged my old nostalgia-soaked piece for two guitars, hope you might like it.

a demo for the band..gave the Blues harp ago on this one ..a little bit of politics
So everybody’s spoken
so theres nothing more to say
they seem to know where we’re going
it’s to the other side today
so lets get going while the the sun…
Putting my own stank on a cover from another mother. Jeff is brilliant and so is Stevie Wonder who wrote and George Martin who produced Jeff's Grammy winning version. What Greatness!
For some reason i jumped straight in, i was rushing it as time is short but why ??? your guess is as good as mine. Anyway it was a lot of fun Hope you enjoy…….
I'm fascinated currently with alter'd tunings and I don't mean the altered open guitar tunings used in a lot of acoustic folk, celtic and instrumental guitar which I have done and they are all great and inspiring. I'm speaking of the alter'd…

cool one bud.
Bowed/ebowed mando, how about that. Great sounds and arrangement.
wow! fantastically done!
Nice one. :)
Wild tones , I like.
Enjoyed that.
great tune! i like what you did with those instruments on this one.
Think you can safely say the mandolin works, guv! The vocals are also fully functional (if a little quiet?). Cool!
This is excellent. Love it!
oh yeah!

man you sound like Gilmore on this! Voice and guitar!
Ha!
nice that you are doing it all - you've grown alot in musicianship over the years!
this is so touching...
There is something very vital here. I really like it.
Zeppelin III had a lot of special songs and this was one of them - excellent choice and execution!
Great!
This is wonderful!
Love - indeed too long!
This as well is wonderful too!
This is certainly one of the best I've heard by an internet artist, period. Superb writing and performance.
Lovely song and performance!
Beautiful piece!
look on youtube for this Thomas Dolby - The Devil Is An Englishman
that is some great guitar and vocal! Love the harmonica too!
I agree with fairynuff! And thanks for the comments!
gosh this is lovely!
Oh yes! One of my fav Zep tunes!!
ha!! groovy!
nicely exotic Jim!
