Thanks
Thanks for your comments. Glad you like the bird sounds. That's actually just me whistling and such. I'm a big bird lover and always enjoy throwing a few whistles in for natural ambience.

A little story about bird whistles: In Santa Barbara I play with the world fusion ensemble, Dreamtime Continuum. At one of our more recent shows at SOhO in downtown SB I was doing my bird whistles during one of our extended shamanic jams. Afterwards, three separate people had to come up and tell me how much my bird sounds affected them. One gent said, "When you started those bird calls it just opened the door for me . . ."

Cool!

Not sure what "twee" means, but everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Not sure what necessarily counts as "real life" either -- reggae can't be
metaphorical or spiritual? That's a little limiting, don't you think?

And for the record, I'd point out that the song descriptions reads that it's
more world fusion reggae that straight ahead reggae.

So there you have it. Thanks for commenting.

I've been recording music since I was 15. Here are some of my latest creations using GarageBand. In the early days I just recorded rhythm guitar tracks on a tape and played that back into another tape player with a lead track, or maybe bass. Eve... [see more]
