Richard Richard Very technically proficient treatments and styles with guitar. David should be composing music for film. Favorite track: Plurally Familiar.

elementus musicalis My friend DD. Fantastic reflections, which show you are an artist with enormous sensitivity. The album should be listened from beginning to end in complete isolation and solitude. I especially loved the last two tracks. Really good job 🙂

Lloyde Olonko ‭This beautiful album embodies ‘A Psalm Of David ‭23‬:‭1‬-‭3‬ ‭NIV‬‬: The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake.’ ⚡️ SPIRITUAL PERFECTION! Favorite track: Unnecessarily Dramatic.

about

I had originally intended for “Solo Guitar for Unheated Leftovers” — a five-minute track celebrating my indifference to food temperature and/or quality — to be my only recorded output on Bandcamp. I didn’t expect anyone to ever hear it, because my promotional strategy for music has usually been to release it, then mention it to absolutely no one. But a few people did listen, including the incomparable Lloyde Olonko, who advised me to “release more music.” Here in southeastern Pennsylvania, we know better than to argue with the man from “Telford!”, so “Relatively Unobjectionable Melodies” resulted from that conversation — an album of sparse unaccompanied guitar with intermittent atmospheric departures. Afterwards, I boxed up the ‘ol USB audio interface because one album of solo guitar is quite enough for one lifetime, right? Well, no, not according to Lloyde it isn’t. Thus, the inevitable follow-up “Inessential Reflections” is the continued sound of a guitar hobbyist having a whole lot of fun. Should you choose to listen to this, I hope the music conveys the joy of the process of creating it. What I’ve learned from many years of playing the guitar, is that the moments of buoyancy that uninhibited music creation can bring to otherwise challenging times are invaluable. So I enthusiastically suggest that if you own an instrument and you’re not currently recording music, then please plug in a USB microphone (or record directly into your phone for a nice low-budget vibe) and make some noise. That’s what I’ve done in anticipation of my next conversation with Lloyde — taken some preparatory measures and recorded more music. Like, a lot of it. As I sort through all of it, I’ll be releasing more albums here, and some tracks will be showing up a few other places as well. As always, I appreciate you wonderful people for listening.
