Added Planet Piano on the Trailblazers page - it's a very experimental piano thing. Maybe some parts of it could be cut and used in a collab, that'd be cool.

I went to a cool jam session last night - I played for three hours.. I started with Rhodes backing for a simple blues jam. Then I picked up a guitar. And later I played a bit of bass. It was a huge jam - there were singers, accordion players, saxophonists, the works - half of the time I couldn't hear what was going on really. But fun.

A lot of times everyone became stuck in just one chord.. I wanted to somehow make them pause so I could bring about a chord change with the rhythm guitar. I wanted basically to have a way to end movements and assign responsibility to a single band member for progressing the piece musically. But I am not sure how to do that.

After much time I have finally re-recorded the bass on Since using a real bass guitar.
I also did some other minor improvements and added another guitar track on the left side. So, this is now something a bit more than a demo.
I still might have to re-do the voice, a couple of the guitar bits.. and improve the drum track.

New stuff in the works:
A blues backing track for guitaroo, (similar to 58 blues, but with a varied chord sequence, two rhythm guitars, one bass, waiting for the lead guy to work his magic)

Someone told me that you can't have a blues song without the lyrics 'my woman did leave me' - so I added it:

And this is the real version, with Guitaroo:
Collab with Guitaroo

Added preliminary bass on a metal track by victorskull:

My bass is still not quite good enough for such a fast piece, but
I think I can do it with some more practice.

Add bass, guitars on a drum track by AWJ:
Just Drums And Bass And Guitar

Added guitars on a synth sketch by ChillinBuzz:
Were you afraid guitar mix 1

A simple rocking thingy I made the other day:

People to work on new ideas are welcome. I feel creative :) (Smile)

I started practicing my classical guitar again. Now I am trying to tackle Sagreras 5th book. Here is an effort, OK, but a bit slow.

I made a new version of Lost Planet, with fx-heavy electric guitar
rather than classical, which I think is much better

Hm... trying to organise some jam sessions in south-west switzerland (valais, vaud). If anyone is interested, drop a note.

Some surprising news. Part of one of my older tunes, Reversibility, is going to be used in a documentary about Prague, by a Brasilian director named Tomas Creus. I hopefully will get to take a look at it soon.
