This week's track is a return to the fingerpicking guitar trio thing, this time with the Just Intonation Tele Deluxe. Digging into the mechanics of performance, there are hammer-ons I'd like to perform, but find difficult--at the nut, the neck is narrower than a few of my more-fingerpicking-compatible instruments (parlor guitar, PureSalem Mendiola). So it's interesting.
This one was a bit tricky to edit together--many parts begin on an off-beat, and recording over two sessions meant that the feel between some parts ends up quite different.
In any case, there's a gentle, contemplative vibe to this.
The title comes from the minor planet 583 Klotilde.
Another week without my OP-XY, so I once again re-visited a song that I started last year. I really like the sonic space of this song. I tried to apply all my newly acquired EQ abilities to bring out the things I really like in the song using the M8's newish ability to EQ individual instruments. I hope I didn't over-do it.
Hopefully I will be back to making brand-new music next week, as my replacement OP-XY should be here by Tuesday!

Lots of old stuff in boxes somewhere, degrading.
A quick and dirty fun track where I just plugged the guitar and recorded some silly simple melodies. And I spent the Sunday on the ocean shore as we had 20 degrees Celsius. The ocean recording is a recording of the Pacific Ocean. There were some Hawks as well, but I could not capture their sound and had to resort to a splice sample.
It's light and silly, but a track is a track.
