...is what kind of made my day today. Do you know that feeling? Working in a far too warm room, and finally when you're done walking outside and discover that summer is over and a bit of fog is in the air which is surprisingly clear and cold... I tried to catch that situation within an idea, and this is what I played:

Phrasing technique
...is what I wanted to practise by playing this piece. If you didn't sleep in music when you were in school, judge by yourself.

Experiments
The impro I bring to you today is subtitled Experimental, which refers to its nature concerning rhythm and playing technique. For example, there is a part where I (try to) play in 5/4 time, and another where I kind of paint a whole soundscape (at least that's what it sounds like to me). But - listen yourself and decide whether you like it or not (and tell me by rating)!

Groovy Harmonies
Hello again,
today I am bringing to you Impro#4, which is subtitled as this post is titled: Groovy Harmonies. This comes from the fact that it's more about basslines playing with chords that are based on them than about chord-supported melody playing. Anyway, as usual, I hope that you like it and ask you kindly to rate and comment :)

Waltzing Summer
... are two words that don't belong together but describe how this piece came to life. It was still summer (which is over now) and I just had to capture my light-hearted sunny feelings about it!
Enjoy listening and don't forget to rate :)

Coping with the past
...is kind of what I do with presenting this file to you. It is the first guitar impro I recorded in the series for this blog, and that was quite a while ago.
Also, the topic behind this music is kind of inspired by things expressed in the title of this post. I hope you like it, don't forget to rate!

Everyday Invention says Hello!
Hello, everyone! This is me, and this is my brand new blog!
What am I going to post here?
Well, that's fairly easy. I'm a hobby musician, the inspirational type, you know... so from time to time, I get an idea and hit the record button to share it with some of my friends. But since this was kind of eating my email space (although I have gmail and therefor like 7 GB of storage!), so I decided to create this blog to keep all lovers of my inventions - in a musical way - up to date.
My pieces I post here are 98% spontaneous improvisations on my guitar(s), but I also play the piano so maybe there's going to be some of that stuff later. But please don't jugde too hard on my playing :)
After all, I would still be happy to have you guys rate my posts and the songs within with the stars that are below every post's title. Comments are also very welcome!
With this post comes an improvisation with the internal number 3 (I started recently to index the new ones), an experiment on how to transfer melodic ideas through different playing rhythms and patterns. Make sure you stay until 4:00 or so, when the real action begins ;)
I hope you like and enjoy!
