Ok, so I've dug up some stuff from an old drive I pulled out of a
burnt up laptop and guess what I found... A vid of me doodling
some fingerpicking! Honest to god, I think I've degraded since this
vid, which I shot around '07/'08 while I was still in the Army (That
was my barracks room in Mannheim, DE). I barely pick up the
guitar anymore. In fact, I broke a string on it, and that poor thing
has been broken for like 5 months now.

I'm neglecting it. I promise I'll put some new Martins on her. Maybe
make a new vid while I'm at it, too.

Anyway, here's what I guess I remember was just a little loop I made
up on the acoustic, back when I first started getting into finger-picking.
Should be pretty obvious how unorthodox I am, but whatever. It's good
times.



I don't have an explanation for the hood and all. I mean, it was cold as
shit there, but I'm pretty sure I was more embarrassed to be fully identified.

that's pretty good, I enjoyed listening to that and I completely understand the whole having a string broken and not touching it for awhile.

I picked up mines the other day even though it's missing one of the strings.

I started to just strum it a bit and a song slowly started to form as far as lyrics. My chorus is pretty fleshed out now. I just need to work on the verses.

Aww bruh I blush!
To be honest, I need to get back on it. Although I'm completely locked into the way I strum. You notice I only use three fingers on particular strings, and it's EXTREMELY hard for me to get away from that. Still, to this day, I do the same kind of strumming/picking, and it aggravates me to no end that I can't move beyond it. Grrr!!!!

Very nice, man!. Sorry for jumping the gun, as I'm not quite "on the road" so to speak, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Man, if my dad ever got wind of your stuff, he'd force you to jam with him over the internet or something. Your stuff very much reminds me of the kind of stuff he and his buds used to play when I was growing up, banging on pots and pans along with them.

I bet he could show me a thing or two about how to play some of them swampy blues like Benoit or someone. From what you said it doesent to much different from the get togethers we had when I was little.

Relatives use to pull a 16 ft. trailer out behind my grandma's every couple years when I was little and everybody who played would use it as a stage. Nobody around for miles anyway exept the cows, and mosquitos so they would cut loose till the wee hours of the morning. They always played a lot of country, but I always took more of a liking to playing blues style stuff. Hendrix was of course..,from outer space to most of them, but that never swayed from obesessing over his music.
I'll add that other than me that nobody play's really anymore,(gospel ..puke) but like I said now a days nobody plays and the ones just a few years younger in their mid 20's are a hopeless generation of PS3 and Wii minded relatives. Not that theres anything wrong with that if thats what your into but times have definately changed from when I was a kid.

I'm interested in this. I know absolutely nothing about you musically, and the one time I asked, you mentioned that you were taking a break from all listening for creative purposes.

^ I must have been drunk.
Sadly, I'm not drunk enough to come up with an excuse that savvy at the moment, so I'll just write about something I was recently reminded about.

Today, I posted a vague (and presumptuous) recommendation in the Electronica forum, which prompted me to do a quick search with the intention
of checking up on the artist. The Flashbulb. Admittedly, I haven't been keeping up with him like I should. I have a bad habit of putting so much
focus into an artist, but in such short periods of time, then abandoning them for ages. It does leave me open for surprises though, many of which are pleasant.

Apparently, he has a new album out, and on top of that,
these videos are the first time I've seen his live stuff. He
has really grown as a musician, and I was overjoyed with
the ensemble he's now using, and the degree to which they
lend to his compositions in a live function. I can safely say
that he is one of the few artists I would genuinely love to
see live, in relation to this genre of music.

Take a listen (Absolutely beautiful):


Another (Love his midi from guitar):


I'll post some of my older favorites of his in a few.

Here's some of my older personal favorites from The Flashbulb.
Honestly, he's been pretty much a staple in my IDM diet. More
so than Aphex back in the late '90s when I got into him as a
drug-addled kid all about the weirdness. Now days, I get more
out of something with emotion... But I still love the rage. It just
has to be the right kind.

Anyway, here are some personal favorites from The Flashbulb:

From: M8 (2000)


From: Kirlian Selections (2005)


From: Flexing Habitual (2006)
