How Will I Know When I'm Home?

Liner Notes
#improvisation #acousticguitar #passerelle #pickaso #alternatetuning
This just kind of meanders for a bit, has a few false endings, and is then done. More a proof of concept of a combination of things I want to practice more with than anything else. Also one more thing done, and I like bits of it.
Wrecked old Ovation. Passerelle bridge by Atelier Rosenkrantz, guitar tuned (on the bridge, shorter side) FADCGA. Pickaso guitar bow.

Love this! Bowed guitar is one of my favorite things, I've got a cello bow I've been trying to figure out. This is such a beautiful piece, very contemplative. You have such cool tone too, its very unique. Awesome experiment!

I like this. Feels very purposeful and narrative for an improvisation. Hope to hear more of these sounds - very evocative. (I just looked at the price of a passerelle bridge in Australia and am considering scavenging in a junkyard to see if I can find something equivalent.)

Beautiful atmosphere you're conjuring up here, the meandering is perfectly OK with me. The guitar sounds really cool with that bridge, and the bowing works nicely with it. Two cool guitar gadgets I'd like to try out but fear I'd never really use - glad you've used them so I can enjoy the sound for free, haha.

Is one of the instruments one of those Chinese stringed instruments that people bow on the subway sometimes - or is it a guitar in that tuning. There is a feeling of being far away from home and not certain how to get back or whether to try.

That is a lovely guitar sound you get from a 'wrecked old guitar'.
There are words her I don't know - passerelle and pickaso.
Again the music stopped short, it would not play past 1.43, I did not hear a bow?
I would listen to more
