So, here's my "listening lounge" of sorts. The mp3s are below and grouped by style or setting. The REALLY obno things are at the bottom (LOOOOONG loops where I was experimenting on things). There are covers, early recordings, some worship music, improved loops - kinda like a box of chocolates if you know what I mean - so sample carefully - some may be yummy some may be not to your taste but see what's in there!

HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL SUPER LONG “I-CAN’TBELIEVE-YOU’D-PUT-SOMETHING-THIS-SELF-INDULGENT-OUT-THERE” MUSIC
http://www.bdotson.com/music/allthewaytherefromhere.mp3 Okay, so you are warned! This is an experiment I was doing to check out some new guitar patches I had developed so it was just intended to be a test – but I liked the craziness and the vibe so here it is in all 8:00+ minutes of it’s goofy glory. It’s all live looped by the way with the drum loop built into my GNX3000 and the bass being a detuned guitar patch played on the Korina V. (January 2k9)
http://www.bdotson.com/music/avisitfromali.mp3 So, same day - I’m still testing tones and settings and getting used to the Korina V when I decided to try out some cleaner tones. I looped them and you’ll hear that my little girl Ali (5 years old at the time) comes in the room (she was on a field trip of sorts!) and I left the recorder and loop running while she gave daddy a hug and said hi. This is WAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY LOOOOOOOOOONG - It was an experiment but I liked it and thought I'd share. (January 2k9)
