Hi all, I am launching a Patreon, partly as an incentive to work on music regularly with a commitment to delivering things, and partly to have that awkward conversation of valuing one’s work.
A brief bio:
Righard Kapp has a storied history of guitar experimentation, improvisation and wrong-way-round composition. In the aughts he started the One Minute Trolley Dash and Jaunted Haunts labels to put out like-minded artists’ music. He has released one studio album entitled Strung Like a Compound Eye.
The Ghost Notes project is an initiative to encapsulate Kapp’s solo compositions and sonic explorations into a set that contains original music old and new, and several arrangements of pieces that has informed his writing process.
Kapp has also played with The Buckfever Underground for several years.
NB i have a job that gives me a decent income. I suppose I can always use more.
Would appreciate feedback on the tier pricing.
Coming soon will be:
- A new edition of Strung like a Compound Eye (basically leftover stock with updated sleeve artwork (the album is 15 years old and really holds up in my opinion).
- A digital remaster by Dirk Hugo who engineered and mixed the album.
- Plenty of new material that forms part of my new Ghost Notes project meant to encapsulate a new body of work that has been accumulating since.
Again appreciate any feedback!
Here is video showcasing a solo arrangement that is quite representative of the Ghost Notes body of work.

There will also be a debut performance on Mon 17 19:00 for 19:30 at Obz Books - extremely limited capacity - i am attempting to work out a way to livestream the performance.
