Love it! I have had a xaphoon for nearly 20 years. I’ve got loads of old recordings of myself playing xaphoon like this: free-form improvisations thick with reverb and delay.

I don’t know what it is with winds but I love them thick with space and verb :) The other track is sent through some guitar pedals and such I have kicking around :) Are those samples of yours still around? :)
Cheers! |

Fantastic—love it. I also love your percussion work. Do you know a song called “Solid Air” by John Martyn? Would love to cover that with you in an extended jam!
|

I love Solid Air both the song and the metaphysical phenomena! :) I loved your take on May You Never too… a fitting homage is at the end of the latest incarnation of Steeped :) I would do just about any track with you Javo! A somewhat pricy ticket not-withstanding I think a tour is in order!
Cheers! Cheers! |

Some day I will take a trip over yonder and we shall jam the pants off of all those luck enough to hear us play! :) Until then we’ll have to jam pseudo-live some time. Hows your internet connection up that way? :) I wonder if any ccMixterers have ever done an internet based live jam… Anyway always great to hear from you Javo!
Cheers! |

Yup, ditto most of the superlatives above. I’ve got one. It don’t sound like this ;-)

I played sax in uni so when I sold it this was the consolation prize :D There is always time to work on one’s embouchure :D
