I wouldn't call this style overdone at all, it's beautiful, requires a GREAT deal of creativity, talent, and feeling.
You CANNOT play or compose this kind of music without putting some feeling into it. That would just be so wrong.
You sir, are amazing. Keep up the good work, and maybe some day you'll end up touring like Andy McKee. Hell, maybe you'll even open for him! I know I would kill to.
PS: Who cares about his appearance. Just sit back, close your eyes, and listen.
@2Funky4me I see what you mean, but i think its got more to do with the tone of the instrument. You know, how you play when you plug into a new amp or pick up a new guitar. I wonder how it would sound if you played that on an electric guitar.
@2Funky4me I know what you mean, it kinda sounds like theyre meandering around in an open tuning and maybe hitting an extra chord or two and thats about it. Oddly enough, Kaki King is my new fave at the moment!!
Dear 2Funky, its Michael. I agree that the style is getting way boring. I've moved away from it over the past few years and gotten back into electric guitar...also trying out dj based programs with electric guitar loops instead of synths. I think part of the 'cosmic' quality lies in the open tunings. When I was writing in this style I did my best to put more angst into the compositions to throw it off a bit. Cheers.
Thanks for the feedback, Michael. You're with no doubt a very talented musician, it'd be cool if you share some of your work with the electric guitar here on YT. Take care.
This brings me to a higher plane of thought, thank you michael this is perfect

i think that playing like that on a telecaster should be quite interesting IMO
