I was playing with Celine Bonacina (the sax player) Sextet: "Réunion"
I had some great fun using the Kat as Fender Rhodes and Balafon...

Hey vibes peoples:

Here's a little trio jam I did a while back on my Malletkat Rig. Tune is entitled "Baby Smacker"

-Tyler

since very very few people posted something on ornithology i decided to post this practice session from today. not very structured, few mistakes in the head but anyway...i post it.

i want to hear you guys on that tune please post what you have so far no matter what it is...

i think it´s not easy to play a good solo over it because i tend to fall into scales and licks i always use if it´s that fast...not easy to get rid of that :(

Before a new school year, I did some work on my M55 to improve it.
I was unhappy with the silly W brace system, always getting loose at the worst time (when rolling the vibe to my van at 2AM for example...), and being a nonsense mechanical feature, as explained here by John Piper and Nico.
I had noticed too that the gear wasn't sturdy around his vertical axis. Just one bolt on each side to maintain all is not enough after some years of use and the horizontal pieces making the "T" part of the horizontal pedal brace were already bended, meaning a shaky vibes in a few time.

Hi everyone,

For the next few weeks, we will be studying Summertime and Wave. These are great tunes for the TOTM, many things to talk about with both. I will be posting the first introductory lesson on Summertime shortly.

Eventually got round to doing this. Funny how the situation arose. I have started a new job as a tutor with a group of other musician in a project called Music Generation. U2 have given 5 million to get the younger generation back into to music through school projects. So this 8 piece band get together and we rehearse all different genres of music for educational purposes and one of the tunes called was Donna Lee. So as I am playing vibes drums and congas etc I had to get to work on it.
