This is a song some 15 years in the making. The original 4-track cassette tape tracks laid down in 1997 - and this past year Frank added bass and drums. Its my fault on how there are still rough edges - that is the result of how I did things…
a long time ago I often collaborated with an immensely talented composer from France, Alister Flint - this is one of our collaborations. Been years since I've heard from him. He's been missed.
The Pursuit is a composition in AA’B form combining electronica and pseudo musique concrète by using a 17 edo guitar with effects, voice, and synthesizers.
I pretty much kill this one, though it was a lot of fun to tackle. I approached this as a 3 piece band cover, that is drums via a Simmons SDMP-1 drum pad, bass, guitarist / vocalist. John Wetton's vocals were a bit too high for me to sustain so…
The Goseck circle is a Neolithic structure in Goseck in the Burgenlandkreis district in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany.
Its construction is dated to approximately the 49th century B.C., and it seems to have remained in use until about the 47th century…
Ooh, really cool. Not really sure what to say, sometimes the tones are all just perfectly balanced as they are here... and transforms into a whole other entity.
Lyrics
The Good Lifeless has Become Boundless
such that it is written,
went where and windly
with pentacles of pie
like know our way
down the screem
when we find what it
is that can been and be we of their

She does that to all of us Reg. Over and over again. Don't take it personal.
If it makes you feel any better, her dog ran away and now lives at my house.
I sampled and tuned my aeolian harp to a just C major chord and used it for this improvisation. There is a thin veil on reality that keeps most of us sane. A few have crossed over and post music here from beyond the veil. I salute you all and…

My final comp project of the year!
This is the first movement of my violin sonata. ("Concision" is the second movement).
I incorporated some metal and dubstep elements. It really gets going after 1:30.
Another week of classes and onto…
Another full band cover of an acoustic Kurt song. Apologies to KC for the guesswork.
LYRICS:
One less side of me
Wonder how I breathe
I know that I need
Just because
you want my seed
Seems to me that harvest’s overgrown
Step aside…
a bit of doodling turned into this .....
The clock strikes midnight and Jennys heading home
Peter, makes do with bus and he sits there on his alone
He’s Watching the streets fill with people as the the raindrops form to the glass
the falling…
It has long been the role of the troubadour to challenge and lampoon Authority through music. This is one such piece, written following a speech by the U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), in which he spoke of African slaves…
Shout out to Tom Waits, one of my favs. Rumor has it, he has had a similar problem with his piano.
I didnt think I would make it signing this way to the end of the song, lol.
Throat lozenge anyone??
I like your froggy throat! Reminds me of an iron chef where the main course was lobster and one chef took to dunking his live, huge, 30 year old, lobsters into a cask of sake or something alcoholic. You need a similar cask for your Gibson. To answer your question - glass slide.
A crazy little song written while considering Ed Robertson's plane crash from a few years back, "Any Landing" is given much legitimacy by Ashley's incredible voice and Kavin Allenson's (Kavin S. Acoustic Church) guitar.
Any Landing
Learning…
Old Age is a bitch.....
As this game of truth, slowly fills up with lies
As the happy ever after gets more and more disguised
The inner truth will pull the mind closed tight
As we introduced ourselves to the end of the night
Somedays…
Just another obscure saint. Not much known about him. Probably much more important and significant than any of us will ever realize.
Oh, yeah, and then there is Saint Simon. Same thing for him.
RIP Alex.
3 Congas, Vintage Bass Cocktail…
From December 2017, my take on an old classic, with a little twist of a bonus number near the end. It may be the first tune I did in 6/8 time, at least that anyone has heard from me. This (sort of) should have a rolling highlands sound to it…

Chris great lead sound on this!

Dreamy...then unsettling...always clever.

love this!
excellent!

A beautifully crafted song.
Someone needs to take the Dr's prescription pad from him. I think Gobbels would appreciate this bold rewriting of history. Its sweep is asphyxiating
Yes!

Merry Christmas to you and yours as well!
oh I mean this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZQxH_8raCI
It has shades of Paul Revere and the Raider's Spirit in the Sky mixed in what has to be the most rocking version I've heard!
very beautiful vocal, production. Very sweet sound!
Nice work!
beautiful!
