Re: OT: 5/4 challenge

[Jim Goodin <jimgoodinmusic@gmail.com>]

That's wild as I almost said it was dulcimer like or something very 'foreign' that you were getting and it was a great contrast Dan to the thick more modern electric g sound.  You are knighted first lap steel Charango player! (though bet Mr Bill W will comment :) ).

Thanks re the banjo think it probably comes from low action on a cheap one as well as my technique is like all my string explorations kind of naive hybrid from my fingerstyle guitar days though I really like claw hammer and appalachian style stuff so that's probably in my psychy as well as Arkansas roots.

That song is such a haunting thing to me and I didn't get it till your words came in and I went wow... good to be talking, don't think I've ever met you at the loopfests though have heard you several times and just missed you saying hello.  Not going to be out this year but bet it's going to be sweet...

Thank you for listening, Jim.  Nice track and god like Banjo sound.  It has the old rootsy fourstring blues banjo quality.  

Nice mood.

Really dig the tone on the guitar and intricacy in the manipulated/plucked like treble part going on

That treble part is actually played on a kapoed Charango with a lapsteel bar.   I am thinking the Charango has probably never been played as a lap steel before.  If someone know otherwise, please turn me on.

As echo'd I really dug your 'One Kind Favor' take Daniel.  In response to that as sometimes I hear something that I really dig and I react with my spin which may have nothing to do with the piece at all other than the energy of muse that it gave me.  This was the case with your piece which I've always loved the trad tune but your spin was cool.

This said I've been playing a lot of banjo of late and improvising with it.  Sorry there is no looping in this (well maybe some organic repetitive in there) so it's now OT as OT from 5/4 but here is my repose of creative energy from hearing Dan's piece.

Daniel that is wonderful!  Just fav'd on FB.  Really dig the tone on the guitar and intricacy in the manipulated/plucked like treble part going on.  Great feel of a great song.

And one from from me too--   

This live looping improv video has been lying around waiting for me to cut the other camera angle in. I never got around to it.  When I saw this thread I just jumped Da and posted it anyway.  Its mostly a shot of my elbow.  Tres Sexy.

Nice tune !

Talking about playing in 5, here is my "contribution":

http://soundcloud.com/eterogeneo/dance-polymetric-piano-counterpoint

At  the beginning you can recognize 2 marimba parts playing in 5 (same shape, but shifted), interlocking with other patterns of different lenghts (playingin 3 and 4).

...and yes, I love Steve Reich music :-)
