Thanks Vais, I DL'ed yesterday and have been messin with it. I tried adding a few things today but never got to a point that I thought it was an improvement. Pretty full - if anything, I think my additions distracted from it -
This is a piece Norm and I collaborated on last year. We hope you will enjoy it.
two improvised 12 string guitar lines
bass line ( I took a few takes)
improvised piano
Norm's percussion in Tumbao rhythm
This is a microtonal Jazz-ish piece produced with some newly developed techniques.
Norm Harris provides the excellent percussion. I probably could have made it easier on myself by not being so chromatic… but there it is.
The piano, bass…

only 32 secs in and this is hooking me hard and fast....visions of sleazy alleys rainsoaked streets and snap brim fedoras above a trenchcoat mac...great job guys.

Playing guitar while watching a storm come in on weather radar.
Fernandes guitar with the sustainor pickup system. It's like an ebow for all the strings at once! Loads of fun :)

This is an invitation, with instructions, on how any AT musician can hop a train in the US and get to my house for a jam session. Figured the lyrics needed to mention all 3 of the collaborating musicians home towns cuz they all run along these…
I asked JohnnyRobbo from over on the Cool-lab to do the backer for this one as our next Collab together and he's done an outstanding job on it ...I had the easy bit adding the words...Hope you enjoy this Led Zep classic......
All this Big Brother is getting a bit much for Reg............so he's got to thinking... O,O!!.... So here's a bit of a noodling folkyPsychodelic thing in Protest at our loss of freedom and where the future may lie......who's to blame?..........
Reg is leaving in the morning...there's a great big world out there to see....Acoustic & Voice trying to play that Bb Harp.........

damn, I'm floored. This is perfect and you are becoming an incredible song writer. All the right stuff in all of the right places - its that special sound man, you got it! Knock 'em dead!
I've been sent to the cellar by the wife as she has a visitor...bad luck hey!...so i got the acoustic down of the wall and even tried a little harmonica...hope you enjoy........
Over the Hills and far away (Lyrics)

Just a little cover tune I did in preparation for last year's live RPM Challenge album "Letters."
Nylon string Yamaha travel guitar, vocals, and one mic... Missed notes and all.
we all have cover a Pink Floyd song at some point, and the only way to cover a perfect song is to make it completely different. Deep down, I think everyone was hoping the wall was not too high, and the song could end on a happy note of breaking…
This is one of my more agressive industrial-ish tunes. There's also an orchestral version done by vaisvil; it should be somewhere in his gigantic list of tracks...I'll see if I can find it and post a link.

simple and to the point. well done
Looking forward to hearing this grow! Solid foundations!
cool piece, the guitar tracks are based on? sounds like a standard rock progression? what's the tuning on these instruments? good fun as always
Really a sweet song!
Cuban garage band! Hey Pops - the guys are coming over to jam this afternoon, so I need to pull the '52 DeSoto out of the garage for a bit...
funny how rumba turned into some 50s rock&roll :)
I just finished watching War of the Worlds, and now I'm scared shitless after listening to this! "Killer" stuff...
Ingenious and original. Very creative gents.
It also sounds a bit like Whales having a jam session 'speshly toward the end !
Serious dissonance and ear wobblingly traumatised notes.....weird,but GOOD weird,Jarvo.
only 32 secs in and this is hooking me hard and fast....visions of sleazy alleys rainsoaked streets and snap brim fedoras above a trenchcoat mac...great job guys.
Kicks Serious Ass! w;-)
This rules! Love the bass and that Beck/Zappa hybrid sounding guitar. Solid!!!
Way to push the envelope, Chris! Very nice work.
I just LOVE that fretless guitar!
very cool, i really like all the different approaches you are taking to music making,,it's giving me a lot to think on
Well done. Fascinating description of your process!
That's some ear bending stuff!
very interesting

great vocals and lyrics - wonderful guitar work! and the harp too!
beautiful Keith, just beautiful. I love Indigo Girls and this is so on the money.
just give your phone a bath - that will do it!
on a roll!
this is a cool take on this. its like pink flyod version from the period they were doing movie sounds tracks.
I do say it seems you've added a great deal more Tension since the last revision I heard.
Always loved this song! Here is the CSO version http://alonetone.com/vaisvil/tracks/tension-acoustic-orchestral
I love what you did with it!
cool - very convincing orchestration and production!
