I improvised this piece a few days ago utilizing electric violin midi’d to a Yamaha FM module, looping in Loopy HD/iOS. A new friend I know from my biking adventures, Henry Reid Carter, responded to it and did a remix embellishing with processing, percussion and some really great sounds digging on the retro to FM.

Jim - Goodin - Till

Jim Goodin's music is a mix of his Delta roots blues, organic folk, Reichian minimalism and rhythmic chunk.Goodin for several years walked in the light of the late Michael Hedges doing his own spin of the solo acoustic guitar thing.Some people said in that time that he reminded them of John Fahey. In recent years Goodin moved to an improvisational approach in his music influenced by collaborator/partner in the duo Chinapainting, Daryl Shawn as well as steeping into looping technology in his performance.During this time Goodin began experimenting with oud and violin and has grown to give them both a lot of focus in his music.He has endorsements from GHS Strings, Seagull Guitars and is published by Mel Bay.He is a member of Loopers-Delight, ImprovFriday, produces WhatsNewAtImprovFriday and co-produes the ImprovFriday Radio podcast series.
