May We Hold Hands Ft Snowflake - Burtsbluesboxes

Wow Thanks Jamid :p I love spoken word set to music, a lovely voice is a bonus! I really like the message too. (recorded in the local cemetary) ;) LOL!

Such simple,crude instruments but with such a beautiful sound!! Oh yes, I'm always left wanting more and more anytime I hear cbgs played! I can't stop building and playing them myself :p When I get an album together (free) I'll make a forum thread with a download link. There's a bunch of cbg music up on you tube too. Here's Swampwitch album to enjoy all played on cbgs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDRQtBVMmI8

Thanks Orlando :p These guitars are very special being they're one of a kind handmade, not mass produced like so many overpriced ones. I LOVE spoken word with music!! So powerful. I really need to properly mix/master this. I'd like to make a cbg album for free download with this song along with some more unpublished material. I found Snowflake's and MissJudged pellas available for use on another site with the requirement to credit and link back, no problem since it's a pleasure to use such great works in my own stuff.

I absolutely love that lo fi cbg tone! Just built a 3 string fretless olive oil can guitar today out of all found materials except the strings and tuners. Really loud acoustically, tuned open D, D A D, for a different tone then the usual open G, GDG. This is played on my 3 string fretted cookie tin guitar made with a 64 oz. Danish butter cookies tin, oak neck. Originally was for the school but I like it too much so I ordered more fretwire to make them another, the music teacher just laughed and said that's cool, the kids will love it when you bring it in. Also ran into the maintenance director of the high school when I came out of our little hut/workshop at the dump with my newest build, he got really happy saying he'd just taken up guitar. Good, you'll get one too for the high school :p I play through guitar rig 5 on my computer, that's a damn good price for a pod 2!! Jealous. Addicted to these 3 stringers! I want to make an electric diddley bow to jam on too. I have one with a piezo but magnetic pickups sound so much cleaner. Cat's can't seem to control themselves around cords, I'm constantly chasing them away. Remember National lampoons Christmas when the cat bit the christmas lights cord hahahahaha! Studies have shown plants like music, helps them grow. I got a Behringer 6 string I'm thinking I'll modify for slide since I have others for regular playing, higher action makes it easier for slide playing. Guitar can be such an expressive instrument! Thanks Spiv, lots more to come.

:p I love the pellas available there. They're all attribution, non commercial but I don't make money on music and prefer to credit the artists anyway. I'm going to have to do something with some more Lovecraft stuff. Already did one for Cthululu and Yog Sothoth. Maybe Azagthoth will be up next.

This just kind of happened hahaha I was playing with my newest toy before work and thought hey that would make a good loop. Recorded, uploaded it. Then said hey that would sound cool looped with some slide lead played over it. Then I said Hey I have those cool spoken word pellas... :D I'm going to make a video too. When I get dug out from this 3 feet of snow. Mournful crawl desribes it perfectly! Just look what us stupid humans are doing to the earth and don't even care. I don't have pics yet of the guitar yet but it,s made with one of those 64 oz Danish butter cookies tins, the large tin. Love the sound! Thanks TA

Do you ever visit ccmixter? The spoken word pella is from there, likely been used in other's songs over the years. Been so busy with work, hopefully this weekend I can properly mix this. Thanks Metabolic. Did you ever get to do anything with the rats in the walls?
