Hardly of this world, how can he be gone then?
Have a couple of hours of Scratch to mourn our loss. Playlist follows.
Do we truly live upon this earth?
Nezahualcoyotl (1402-1472)
Not for ever on this earth, only a short time here.
All things, even jade will crack,
all things, even gold, will break,
even the quetzal’s plumage fades;
not for ever on this earth, only a short time here.

* When: I hope you can stop by next Thursday night around midnight (Or Friday Morning if you are on the East Coast!)
7th installment (take 2) of “Sleepwalk with the Digital Guitarist.” When I explained to my 9-year-old nephew that my show last Thursday was called “don’t wake the baby,” and that I messed up and there was no sound turned on for the whole hour I played, he remarked, “maybe you did that ‘don’t wake the baby’ thing a little too much.” It was a great set, sorry about the glitch, so I will try the same thing again this coming Thursday. I am just going for a mellow vibe and we’ll see what happens. Part of it will be on the new 12 string, but I will probably switch it up a bit too. I won’t wake the baby though, promise. But this time with the sound on. 🙂
Just before Midnight, THursday May 28, til about 1 AM Honolulu time. That’s 6 AM opn the East Coast and 3 AM on the west for you early risers and late nighters!to one, Thus
“Sleepwalk with the Digital Guitarist #6” I’ll explore all things Mersey/Athens/Brit Invasion/Hoboken exploring the jangle and the chime by introducing the newest member of the family, my Danelectro 59×12 twelve string run through different amps and such. What is the difference between “Needles & Pins” throaty Vox chime (or hard days night, or …) and the fendery jangle or early REM (or anything from 80s Athens or Hoboken)? What difference does the guitar make? How about different amp Sims? (although I’ll do the amp shootout some other time!)
If you want an idea of what the sleepwalks are like, here is Sleepwalk #3:
Eric and I are working on Album Four, tentatively titled “rrepost.” Here is what we have so far…two more cuts to go, I’ll post them soon.
Here it is, RREPost
Way Music went down for two days…Sorry about that! Now it is all refreshed since it got its REST 😉 I have been busy though, and just completed a video playlist demonstrating the Tec Breath and Bite Controller 2 and showing how to set it up. That will be the last BBC2 video for a month or so since I am having a tooth pulled and won’t be able to play the BBC2 until it heals.
Open source mind-controlled robotic arm. Musicians should be all over this! Mind control OSC or MIDI CC. I’m looking.
Finally getting around to giving my Christmas present a workout! I got a TEC Breath and Bite controller 2. Here I try it out for atmospherics on this almost ambient piece.
This is really fun. I can already control two things from my guitar by where I pick and by the MIDI volume knob. The
Two new things today, a new song to cheer you up from rreplay, “Happy PIL,” and a new Digital Guitarist video in my series of reviews of KVR Developer Challenge plugins.
New from rreplay: Beats for days. The title is the song!
