#musiceveryday 213 no scales
by now we are aware
that where we are
is neither here nor there
but
somewhere
inside
a
melody

back to the past
a few days
what happened
where have you been my
son?
i saw a long shadow rise over the hilltop over the city
i saw a mummy sitting in a museum and people on their cellphones
i saw a grocery store full of poison and a sky full of trouble
force
field
use it
makah the cello go
boom
here we have
ukelele again
our friend ukelele
always getting after it
mr ukelele
ok, I have been making music everyday. and sometimes recording. just not sharing… ok? geez.
anyways, here’s one. I’ll eventually catch all these past ones and throw them in a box for you to sift through.
first breath
that was realized
as breath
today
when made this
thingy
recording with the studio door open. kind of nice
honestly today i really had to squeeze this one in. not busy, but i’m glad i did find the time. that’s what this is, time.
did i record this a few days ago?
maybe?
and what
it’s like a viking drunkly strumming alone
on a hill
in the late spring
why in this heat
hast to get overwhelmed
workin’ all the time it seems
not playin music out there
on the festival floor
whatever
who needs
i called this one scrimple
i don’t know what it is
the world is so strange
today
these days
how do we
just love eachother?
again?
oi.
can’t even write a blog post like a normal
it’s not like i’ve been watching game of thrones
or anything
here’s some cello action
for ya
here’s some
time
in the form of
harmonies
for ya
falling string
sings
a lack of whether or
why
and a bunch of
slings
I made sure to share some music
playing with broken
things
making a mess
of it
picking up the cello again
stumbling over it
and that’s fine
and that’s
what happens every time
with every thing
and you remember it’s yours
if you tell yourself
so
is that a word?
favores
whatever
is that
even
a word?
let’s get
all caught
up
and play
geetar
gee
star
i fell out of it for a little while
doesn’t mean it’s over!
it’s never over.
music everyday forever
playin guitar
sometimes takes me
back in time
at my brother’s house, playing his awesome martin guitar
end of week, time getting circled on itself, here are some 2 minutes of music for your day, week, life.
an unplanned cover song
the better by ten billion version is here: https://itun.es/us/EMkAp?i=258517408
making the pentatonic hits, on a daily basis
ok, everyone is allowed to play with synthesizers every once in a while. i don’t know how i feel about this but it is today’s thingy, so there.
here’s another ukelele poem
wow, i got lost this weekend and it was great! this sunday eve i recorded some ukelele just to check in with you
This one turned out a bit hippy, if that’s your thing, you’re welcome, if not, you’re welcome.
also, Music Everyday was / is like, not the creativist title ever and so these are now a part of a thingy called “REVERIES” and yes, that added notch of pretentious *does* make me breathe a little easier.
the end.
part 2 in the cello tried to be new age and turned kind of cool and meditative series.
the ol’ angsty guitar routine.
been around lately, a good weekend out in what LA is, a museum, some galleries and hundreds having fun, electric evenings. I suppose summer is here.
Also I played guitar tonight.
look, there are bells everywhere. just a kind of song to remember where they were.
started as called broken
I wanted to see if I could make a new age track, and was being ironic and cynical. and then i actually really liked how this turned, might do a few more. here’s for you to do what you can with it, like, close yr eyes and sit awhile. or party hard.
and an 8 minute meditation track gets in on the everyday action.
this guitar went that way
this one is ukelay lady lay
this one is celloed out
made three songs this weekend
all continuing from the previous, and kind exploring what hides in one chord, even though that sounds more thought out than it was
oh and three different instruments: guitar, then cello, then ukelele
was listening to screeching weasel today. forgot how much i missed that.
my bet’s on c#minor
if you like imperfectly improvised solo cello pizzicato, this jam is for you!
make the cello go
melodica. that is all.
turning to my good friend mr. ukelele for today’s moody jam.
Last night I had the pleasure of practicing with the great Molly Allis and Jenica Anderson of Bear Club. We’ve been playing electric lately, but in preparation for a more intimate show we were armed with marimba, cello and acoustic guitar. And of course their voices. Sorry, the cello is a bit loud on this recording of us practicing a song since the recorder was close to me.
played some more bach action and then improvised afterwards, imperfect and all.
picked up good ol’ Cello McCelloface today. I played some Bach badly and then recorded this improvisation.
i like my toy xylophone
