Strange Maine 6.19.08

I will be playing sampler, followed by an Oudist. Not bad for a Monday night in Portland.

More from Amsterdam

Vernal Onslaught - most days had their stages of rain, wind, and hail; but I'm not here to site see so it's all the more reason to stay in and play sampler.





I "wrote" this one back in New York before I left. Mostly, it's samples of me playing electric violin through a phaser, etc.



Damn Your Niceities!

The Lekker Sounds of Lewis and Salvador

Grettings from Holland!

Amsterdam is going well.

Although plagued early on by the logistics of European voltage conversion, since we've gotten the set up working, Scott and I have been recording everynight.


UPDATE (4.15.08)- I finally got this one working after having major problems with the files I brought back from Europe. It sounds a little fuzzy but I can't remaster it because the original recording is on Scott's laptop in Amsterdam.

I like it anyway; tentatively titled "The Jonathan Lipnikki Translations" (thanks Macdonald).

Eastern Drone

The bul bul turang is an Indian folk instrument, traditionally made using typewriter keys to bar a set of strings on a fret board. Kind of a cross between an autoharp and a harmonium.

Mine is very old and out of tune, but I like the way it sounds with a contact mic and a pedal chain.

The synth "solo" in the middle of this piece is played on this WSG which was built by Colin at Narbotic.net.
