Whoa, flipping back to the minor at the last second! I was thinking to myself that things seemed far too positive and uplifting on that last leg for a person who had been grueling over notes and tones for 24 hrs! Excellent work.
I'm really digging these. Planning on expanding them at all? extending length?.... separating them? I really like the melody at 14:00. what a mood in that one. Why can I only heart something once on here!?
srsly, this has been amazing! i've been listening all yesterday, and again today whilst studying....
you have amazing talent, brando.... wish i had made you give me some stuff to listen to earlier!
xo,

An extremely commendable endeavor! Ever since reading the book "The Frustrated Songwriter's Handbook" I've wanted to try one of these all day write-a-thons. Maybe someday I'll shut out the outside World and actually do one. My hat is off to you sir!
I knew this would be a rewarding listen (like all of your stuff) - but man... all this in 24? Outstanding! Loved the crunch - but the last seven minutes are just plain wonderfully melodic. Wow. Excellent work (as usual) Brando... now get yourself some well deserved sleep. ;) k (& w)
A masterpiece indeed. I am wowed, but not surprised. Your work is always amazing. A favorite of many. Are you planning on exploring any of these ideas more? You could easily turn this into an hour long album. Each piece is so well defined and poignant. kudos.
Yeah brando!!!! Wow, this is a masterpiece. I'm loving minute 9-10, it is rocking so heavy and great panning, degradation and oh my. bubbly and so many sounds and adventures and man. Congrats!
This is a track from my abandoned "Weekend Follies" album, which was recorded in my parent's basement in Mercer Island, Washington during the summer of 2003. This track was recorded during Seafair weekend. That's one of the "Blue Angels" flying…
First draft.
Dedicated to my mother on her birthday.

this vocal arrangement only made the cutting room floor. full instrumentalized version forthcoming. i just wanted this arrangement its own chance at life!
The Dutch painter Mondrian was apparantly a fervent dancer to Boogie Woogie and that image stuck because he seems such a stiff guy otherwise. So I thought that would make a funny subject for a dance-tune. Normally I wouldn't make a song about…
My Clique-contribution with some added ambientsound recorded from my window. This is partly the traditional filler-track but I quite like the ambientsound. If I do a record next year (I probably won't) it will most likely be just 35 minutes of…
more tabla/club music. this one needs some melodic work, perhaps some more instrument layering, more chord progressions... anyhow, should be enjoyable enough for now.
2 tablas, acoustic guitar, bamboo flute, tambourine, spanish lyrics.. thanks Hardrick for the help!

Sudara says: Just found this on my iPod.
Basically it was the first full mix of the tune, before it passed back to glu and then back to Sudara for the "original" version.
This is heavier, more energy, less fraility, and in Sudara's opinion a…
I was listening to this one at work today. You, of course, have a vast supply of great music, but for me this album is an absolute triumph. I love every track, and just listening to it makes me feel like the coolest motherfucker on earth.
Okay so I enjoyed doing Glubotism1 enough that I thought I'd take a second crack at it. Same tools but took a different approach to how I used Stylus RMX and I introduced some of it's built-in effects on some of the parts. Also I bused RMX and…
Sunday aftnoon (11/09/08) took the reso down to the Fort Worth Modern Art Museum and recorded some doodling inside the Serra sculpture Vortex. No effects added, all natural reverb inside the structure.

great stuff brando!! really enjoyed it all but especially the last four/five minutes
killer sounds and moods, bdo. i <3 14:04. seems to sum you up very well. i'd love to hear some vocals over that, too. :)
Wow! This is just phenomenal. Start to finish, you had me enthralled. Wow.
I'm glad you went on the 6th, too. You've made the Southwest Region proud. What will you do with your new powers?
YEAH... GREAT. eXcElLeNt... wow... really emotive

Thanks guys. I'm not sure if I'll ever touch this stuff again. That was hard work. I'm beat.

Nice club track. I'm feeling pretty subdued today, but a part of me is ready to rage now.
It's good to see you. Love the movement in this track.
Beautiful and awesome.
I'm always a fan of your vocal arrangements so it's a treat to hear one straight. I'm excited about the forthcoming.
I really like the tone you've achieved in this mix. Heavy, biting, AND smooth. Well done.
This song refuses to leave my mind. Thank God it's so good.
I love your stuff. This is a great arrangement in this playlist.
oh! Body movin'.
Aaahh. The comfortable, familiar sounds of progression. Still one of the greats.
Just flipping through your library of tracks. I wish I had more time because I could be content here for quite a while.
I love how heavy the bass is in this song. Drifting...
Si!
absolutely yes.
Oooh. Wonderful soundscape.
I was listening to this one at work today. You, of course, have a vast supply of great music, but for me this album is an absolute triumph. I love every track, and just listening to it makes me feel like the coolest motherfucker on earth.
Cool! There's so much good panning going on I had to instantly listen again with headphones.
Already cool. The natural sound makes it even cooler.
I love the string part when it comes in. It's so... cavernous.
You've inspired me. I've assembled favs vol. 1. http://alonetone.com/brando/playlists/favs-vol-1/
Thanks for the list. Perfect to come home to. I look forward to the next collection.
