GM& GM

A thousand miles still on we go
Said goodbye to all we've known
Heading North, Magnetic Pole

Senses heightened by the cold
Ghostly gleaming, blue the snow
Austere beauty all around us

Frozen landscape, Silent Night
All is calm and all is quiet
Out of nowhere bathed in light

Transported to some other place
Emotions rise we turn to face
Spectral rainbows flowing over us

What mystery?
What magic sight?
Words can't describe it

Banish Darkness
Spirits dance in light
Aurora Borealis
Tonight

Many thanks to Gordon, the man behind Napier's Bones!

Hetland (featuring Gordon Midgley)

An instrumental about the midsummer nights north to the polar circle.
This song is not totally new and was released 2-3 years ago under an other name. But I've felt it could benefit of fresh remixing/ mastering. Since the original didn't contain a real guitar on it I've asked the Prog rock/ Jazz/ fusion maestro - Gordon Midgley if he wants to add guitars on tune. 
The (new) name of the track is inspired by Gordon' s lovely guitar work, which gave me the feeling of how ideal summer nights are, here north to the polar circle!

Gordon Midgley: 12 string and electric guitars
Guy Mauseth: Bass guitar, synths, drums arrangements.

Midsummer Nights - Featuring Gordon Midgley

A journey through mostly keys of A. The journey starts at Mellowsville and ends in Proggyville. 
The Sound Hound is kept busy as guitar gear exchanges in between the various sections: 
Hagstrom HJ600 w. 012 flats, finger style
Tele * Red Llama - fingerstyle
LP * Blackstar - fingerstyle "mysterious"
Tele * Red Llama - plectrum {revisited some of the ideas from the Hagstrom section but with gain & bending }
LP * Blackstar - finger tapping - classical influence to accompany the synth arpeggios
LP * Blackstar - plectrum w. pick-tapping finale

On the bass side the sound man had an easier job as the bass used is a Fender Geddy Lee Jazz. Starting on a single amp solution - Ampeg SCR DI which later changes to dual amping solution where Ampeg SCR DI is used as amp one while EBS Multicomp and Tech21 Sansamp Oxford are exchanging as the 2nd amp role. Mellowsville bass is finger style, Proggyville is pick (Herco Flex75) bass.

The song started as a practice on finger style bass playing and progressed thereafter. The inspiration for playing finger style came from music I've listened to recently.
In the recent months I've listened to two particular bass players where both master finger style and pick style. The bass players are Jonas Reingold of Karmakanic, The Flower Kings, The Fringe, Agents Of Mercy, Kaipa, The Tangent. He is in my eyes the finest bass player in the prog rock scene. His playing covers everything in between Jaco and Chris Squire. The other bass player is Gordon Midgley of Napier's Bones and Bowing Tide. Like Jonas Reingold his bass playing is inspired by several big names but from different backgrounds and different playing style - Jack Bruce, Percy Jones, Jaco, Geddy Lee & Pete Trewaves. Gordon finger style bass technique is quite unique and extremely effective. He tends to alternate between pick style (with or without pick) and pure finger style on the fly, just take a careful listen to Napier's Bones bass playing to discover the depths of the his bass playing. The fact that most people tend to focus on the guitars (and he is a very skilled guitar player)and he synths tend to "hide" his great bass playing.

The song itself is somewhat inspired by Karmakanic, a prog rock band which likes to blend jazzy elements and prog rock.

A Journey To A --  featuring Gordon Midgley

A proggy instrumental featuring Gordon Midgley of Napier's Bones/ Bowling Tide/ SGF. 
Now, I had the honour of having Gordon to sing or play guitar (or both). But we have in previous occasions talked about the possibility of doing a bass duet, somewhat inspired by Wal To Wal by Brand X. 
On this song Gordon takes the lead role on his fretless Jazz bass while I play my fretted Jazz bass. Gordon added a funky rhythm guitar on his Strat while I've added a 12 string rhythm section. The 12 string is emulated, played on an iPad! 
There are also some electric guitar lines earlier in the song, these was played by my on a Squier VI, which is really a short scale 6 string bass tunes E to E. 
There are some other stuff going on here, an hammond, an iSEM (iPad emulated SEM) and some other synths, all played on the iPad
The song was mixed an mastered as usual on my iPad using Auria Pro DAW.

So:
Grodon Midgley: Squier VM fretless Jazz, Fender Stratocaster
SoundHound: Gordon's 4 legged sound technician takes care of all of Gordon's gear arrangement and various technical support such as neck relief adjustments etc.
Guy Mauseth: Fender Jazz Geddy Lee sig. , Squier VI, 12 staring emulated guitar, some synths and drums arrangement.

Guy Mauseth & Martin Neuhold - Matty Groves

En liten stubb kreert i sofakoken en vanlig onsdagskveld med gitar og PC på fanget. Bortsett fra gitaren, som jeg har kjørt gjennom Amplitube, har jeg brukt softsynther fra/mikset i StudioOne 

Onsdagskveld i februar

Min gode forhenværende kollega Per Granaune og jeg satt over lunsjen og filosoferte over livet og universet - og hvor mye det er mulig for oss krypene her på kloden å forstå. Kanskje finnes alle svar rett foran øynene på oss - men at den klatten med graut vi er utstyrt med rett og slett ikke er i stand til å fatte busdkapet. Det måtte jo bli ei vise :)

Det handler om være roen - på havet - med årer. Men man kan jo være roen i så mangt - og meget... I livet, kjærligheta, løkka - og så mye annet.
Dette er en liten stubb jeg skrev for 25 år siden på lugaren om bord på Geco Echo på seismikkoppdrag i Rødehavet. Jeg hadde nettopp møtt min tilkommende fru, og hadde ikke nokka lyst til å være der... Låta blei spilt i vårt bryllup med kirkeorgel og fløyte. Her er den i enkel bluesaktig combo - lett vrengt stratocaster, Hammond B3, trommesett og bass. Etterttitelen "med ro" handler om at det er den rolige versjonen. Det finnes en latinvariant også...

Roen - Med årer

Å seile fembøring gir en ro til å finne på musikk. Livet på havet kan også være kjølig om man ikke kler seg godt. Derfor tittelen. Den fungerer også godt som metafor for mange ting her i livet. Det tok 12 år fra åtte takters ide til en hel låt... Enhver referanse og påfallende likheter med Pat Metheny/Lyle Mays' musikk er absolutt tlsiktet...
