Music. Photography. Thoughts.
Before I forget it – every newly published album becomes ‘album of the day’ on Wikiloops, and so did my latest one today:
Go and listen to it if you like. And thanks for reading, and for listening, or even downloading. Thanks to Richard, and to Wikiloops and its musicians and supporters for making this possible.
Just published a new album on Wikiloops, and here’s its front cover from Flickr:

As always, thanks to my friends on Wikiloops, and to Richard & family. Thanks to you for listening, downloading, and so on… hope you’ll like it 🙂
Sharing a Youtube video from 2012 here:
Like Dick & Mr. Baer said, you’re invited – and it’s free. Join us, it’s fun! 🙂
After trying out the new and upcoming artwork for Debian 11 “Bullseye” on my desktop (see my last post), I downloaded the poster art for the last Wikiloops member’s meeting in 2018, and tried that – and so this is how my desktop looks right now:
Fits, because first I’ve been there (which was great), and second I’m a bass player… 🙂 So thanks to Dick for providing this – and thanks to you for viewing/reading, as always.
One of the neighbours’ cats just walked over my notebook, pressing the key combination to take a screenshot. So he’s an IT cat… interesting…
… and yes, we’re open for visitors. Both human & feline… 🙂
As always, thanks for reading 🙂
Some fellow musician in Wikiloops asked about output levels of songs, and how to get these. I tried to answer it to my best knowledge, and also explained how *I* do this using Ardour. Since version 6.3 of Ardour there are two ways to export to a certain loudness level, and I hadn’t fully explained that before, so I did it now – and made a short howto video about it:
In case that is useful, I’m glad that I could help. And as always, thanks for reading, and watching/listening.
Zuleikha recently asked what’s so great about alcohol. I tried to explain why people still consume it despite all the negative effects, but who could explain it better than Professor Moustache? That’s a series from the French/German TV channel ‘Arte’, and here it is with English subtitles:
As always, thanks for reading, and viewing. And thanks to Arte.TV for the explanation.
I wrote about ‘my’ version of Ray’s game in April 2018, and shortly after that, Ray uploaded a video compilation of his collected tracks to Youtube – watch and listen:
Awesome. And what an honour to be a small part of it. Thanks Ray & everyone, and thanks to you for watching and for listening.
What an awesome track from Anne and from Benjamin – just had to grab one of my instruments and to play… listen to “You play on” on Wikiloops please, and if you like it give some thumb ups to the musicians. Thanks!
P.S.: got a remix from David after an hour or so already – thanks a lot my friend!
As always, thanks for listening.
Sat down with my guitar to try out recording with the new Ardour 6.8, then decided to speed up the whole thing, and to continue with an off-beat metronome, and with my bass. I uploaded the whole short uptempo track plus one with my bass only to Wikiloops, now hoping for remixes onto this shorty:
As always, thanks for listening.
