Where's the link, clones? Can't find any :(
sorry about that - it is fixed now
This is quite a solemn piece. Enjoyed.
I'm beginning to like this 'daily' concept.
If I understand it well, it's not about each day a composition, but it's made on one day.
Hi Sam,
Actually the "daily" concept is something that Bill (ice9) started and it does mean a composition (or more - or less) a day. However I've stretched that concept to my needs.
When I was a teenager I used to write lots of poetry and then I would sometimes sit with the spiral notebooks and improvise the vocal and guitar work inspired by the poetry - the daily concept is similar for me to that except that now, with midi and digital audio recording I have a chance to take a recording like that and expand upon it with much greater ease.

Yep, the ability of recording makes a big difference.
Nevertheless, retrospective, my best improvisations were not recorded, just gone in the air..
some for me too - but I have lots of tapes I'm still going through. Back then with the poetry I was recording on cassette with 1 mic and line in for guitar.
Some moments from that time were captured that I like - such as that solo for Eternal Return.
Some moments... I'd rather forget ::)
Tapes and cassettes... I guess we have a lot of work in common in digitizing these resources..
I read about a vinyl player with USB connection. I would welcome a cassette player alike, but it's idle hope, I'm afraid.
I think I saw a cassette with USB connection.
Might have been on Think Geek.
If I run into again I will send you the link.
