This is my version of Greensleeves.  There is NO GUITAR on this track.  All parts other than strings, piano and drums were done on my NS/STICK.

Drums were played by Mikey Lewis (Six Minute Century, Helstar).

This is my Christmas gift to all of you...please download, enjoy, share and save.

Greensleeves

Back to the Farm

Arthur Durkee: dulcimer, NS/Stick

A soundtrack to a short film, evoking nostalgia. A pastoral improv for solo dulcimer with added chords and baseline.

Back To The Farm

Here is "Io" from the upcoming Dr. Froth album...Velvet Shades of Moist.

This is not complete on the production, but has all the parts.  There is no guitar.  Everything except the drums was done on my NSSTICK.

Except that sound in the beginning...that is the actual sound of the moon of Io as recorded by NASA.  Cool huh.

Mars Retracts

From the 2002 Well of Souls album "Sorrow My Name"  
I always liked my bass part to this track.

Ashes of Despair

I wrote this song for the last Six Minute Century album.  Don LaFon and I trade solos in the middle.  It is Me on the stick, then Don, then Me, and lastly Don.  Fun stuff.

Needham Point

Chapter 4 from the upcoming concept album "Gathered in Darkness."
This song features Robert Lowe, Lance King, James Rivera, and Chuck Williams.

Tribunal

This song was created with my NS STICK and a Fractal Axe Effects processer.  THERE IS NO GUITAR on this track.  All the leads, everything except the drum loop and the samples from the Europa documentary are made with the NS.

Enjoy.

Seas of Europa

This is a track from the new Well of Souls album "Sorrow My Name."  This track really shows what is capable with the NS/STICK.  During the clean, slower passages you hear things that sound very synth like...they are not...that is my right hand on the high range of the NS running through a Fractal guitar processor.  I do this while playing the low end through the bass rig with my left hand.  There is another really interesting two hand portion that comes in at 5:25.  While this band is a different flavor than Six Minute Century, I really enjoy getting to explore the sounds that I can create in a different way with the NSSTICK.  Enjoy...and buy the album from any of the places you would expect...after Oct 9, 2012.

The Pain's Not Forgotten

This is a solo done on my NS/STICK which I play as an extended range bass guitar.  It is not layered and can be performed live (crowd not included...haha).  I was going for the sound of the bastard love child between Cliff Burton and Van Halen.

Enjoy.
