Default New EP coming

https://soundcloud.com/dr-bekken/set...e-hour-of-need

Hello, everybody - thought I'd give you a pre-listen...

Here are the tracks on my upcoming solo guitar instrumental EP, which will be available for streaming/download on May 6. For now, they are a playlist on soundcloud.

All music was recorded in one sitting, April 20, on a Roland Edirol recording device, and no mix or mastering has been done. I want the raw sound, totally unfettered with.

The tracks are:

1.Way Down Deep (1947 Hagstrom parlour guitar, standard tuning)
2.Dark Night Descending (Richwood RD-12 dreadnought, ca 2010, open Dm)
3.Help Us In The Hour Of Need (Landola 12-string from ca 1980, open D)
4.Richwood (Richwood RD-12, open Gm)
5.Still Way Down Deep (1947 Hagstrom parlour, standard tuning)

The music is improvised ambient drone folk/blues, influenced by artists like RL Burnside, Fahey, even improv players like Derek Bailey and Wendy Eisenberg. Hope some of you will enjoy it, even if it is pretty crude at times. Anyway, it turned out like I intended!

Good luck with your project. What does EP stand for?

Thank you! EP is short for ‘extended play’, meaning a release which is less than 30minutes, but with four or five tracks, so it can’t be called a ‘single’. In the old days, an entire album was an LP....’long play’.....
