"Guitarist Collective" - see www.guitarcollective.org.uk/forum  for details of what it is about. It is a bunch of musicians (mainly guitarists) who have a monthly task to create some music that fits a task and then we all feedback on each others attempts. Here are mine, with my latest entries are at the bottom of the page.

 

Guitarist Collective - (January :  2010 Task)

Beer and cheese soup was the task ie do something that either you don't normally do, or fit different stuff together that doesn't normally go together - so...here is my entry, NO guitars! except a guitar synth modelled nylon acoustic! - an attempt at doing strings. Not really sure what I make of it and my compressor is knackered so sound quality issue warning! Also watch for the transistion from 3/4 to 4/4.

Guitarist Collective - (February :  2010 Task)

Grunfeld (Oli) has posted some you-tube videos and the task is to make music that fits them!

My entry is called "Don't look down" & it doesn't quite last the full 6 minutes and 30 seconds of the kings way film, but that was simply because I know it can be boring to download big files. However, this is still quite big.

I'll JOT about the making of it later!

Guitarist Collective - (April :  2010 Task)

Well I tried NOT to contribute last month... this month I will NOT contribute, simply because I have to break the habit! - 39 straight entries is obsessive and compulsive and I need to rest and take a holiday! ----- I will be back in May though!
