Somewhere in Africa, two little kids with cheap saxophones started playing a little motif that one of the village elders thought sounded like someone saying ?didn?t the pop go there?. He then called the other village people to gather around, pick up their instruments and join in...an attempt to drown out the annoying cacophony created by these two little kids who obviously had little experience with cheap saxophones.
Elektro Cave Ritual
I don't know what the muses were thinking when they gave me this one.
Flymore Jazz
Smooth jazz for the rest of us...well the strange ones at least.
Funkmeister
The Funkmeister stirs his cauldron of thick electronic guitar spiced funk stew. That's me attempting to play crappy guitar...well, it isn't the guitar that's crappy...
Lizard Dance
On Halloween night, Frank Zappa, the Addams Family and an uncharacteristically mellow Cecil Taylor have a jam session in the Sonoran Desert while lizards dance at their feet.
Hypnopompic Visions
The hypnopompic state is the transition state of semiconsciousness between sleeping and waking. For some people, this is a time of visual and auditory hallucination, for me that seems to be where my reality exists.
Laughing Buddha, Dancing Man
Marsh Monkey
A marsh monkey walks into a bar to the nasty sounds of distorto-hammond funky bluesy soul jazz and says to the bartender, ?Give me a Kool Aid.? The bartender takes one good look at the marsh monkey and gives him a Kool Aid...black cherry...no joke.
I wrote this when I was eighteen years old. Back then I called it "Manny Marshmallow", but changed the name to "Marsh Monkey" (which I think sounds way more cool) when I updated the tune a couple of years ago.
Soul Mate
For Ella...I wish the song could be better.
Star Face
Perfect Pitch
A friend of mine, who is a damn good sax player told me the following joke: Q: What is the definition of perfect pitch? A: When you throw a banjo into a dumpster and it hits an accordion. That joke inspired me to write this, which isn't really in my usual "style" if I do indeed have one.
Sage
Walking with Miles
Miles is an elderly gentleman of a black lab. He likes to walk.
Unwrapped
Tulip Test
Here is an experiment with samples composed mostly in "Acid" and finished off with "Cakewalk Sonar". The song is made almost entirely of samples except for the "fretless bass" and "electric piano" solo in the middle section.
