Can't remember if I ever posted these. I wrote them 20 years ago.
Couple of dancey ones. They've held up OK I guess. But aren't any good.

It might be just me, but vocaroo isn't embedding anymore. I reconstructed the link and its a good tune!
I think these stand up really well. Track two (my favourite), were you chaining the vocals to pitch and synthesis parameters (or not, or something else altogether)Can't remember if I ever posted these. I wrote them 20 years ago.

Another version of this. Looks rubbish, sounds rubbish, but don't let that confuse you - it really is rubbish. Get your rubbish here!
If you're hungry for more here's a thing I did for xmas. It's a lovely song called Dead Reindeer Blues.
A real gem of genuine shizzle.

Don't fight your instrument. Just tune it nicely and let it do its thing. Luckily it was in a good mood.
Completely different thing here from the archives that I don't even remember doing. I think the mic wasn't switched on and you're getting the laptop sound which is terrible. But the song is also terrible so it works I think. No idea what I was on about.
Got this one as well. Sunny resonating drone tune. I guess I've cornered that market that nobody was asking for.

Same old story, should be finishing some other tunes I started but been playing my strat more recently and did this yesterday. Not perfect but will do for a thing.
I did this song for someone's kid. I'm getting quite a six year old following. I should have spent more effort on it, but I think the make it up as you go along nature of it is part of the appeal. I'm known as the silly man.
And here's a bit of po faced experimentalism. I like the idea that different octaves have different scales, with the way the instrument has different tones on different strings and different pitches, this makes sense you can sort of separate the sound. Not that that's really what's happening here, this is just a stab at something that may develop into something if I remember to do it.
And see what you make of this one.

Some old Spanish/classical guitar shorts....
This is just a little flamenco strumming thing. But I like the way I'm keeping the chords simple (in terms of fingering). I like to feel that making something easy to play is a virtue. Music anybody can do.
I've got this thing where I do a chord sequence that matches the most basic things to do in standard tuning and that sounds nice enough. I then add doodles to it. This is a fairly good version. Not much to it and it doesn't go anywhere. Whatever.
This is something a bit more interesting. An improvisation that mixes one thing and then another - it's really not sure what mode it's in. I try to avoid that "one thing and then another thing" thing so I rejected it. But looking back it's alright, I like what's going on here. I feel I should build on it. I probably won't.

For your amusement...a young clair on vocals. Aww I was so young, thin and nervous...none of which I miss. I only saw most of these pictures recently when my mate decided to upload this. I wrote the guitar and lyrics on this.
Mate asked me to do a song about lightening the mood at work (he got an employee of the month thing). He wrote some words for me thinking of Hoochie Coochie Man sort of blues thing. But I can't get that to not sound thin on a solo acoustic. But I've got some sunny sounds I've been playing with and did this manic jangle slide toss with it. Hope he likes it 
. If he's willing to sing it himself I'll Hoochie Coochie it.
This might be more the sort of thing
Still at the development stage though. Maybe some more words and a bit of polish...

Put some stuff on Tiktok. It's surely the right place for my 1min approx improvised outbursts. Got a bunch of views and a few likes from rando's immediately. I think if nothing else what I do is suited to giving doom scrollers a quick wtf dopamine rush. However this one got a couple of likes from two actually talented musicians.
