A tribute to Ted Kennedy. It was a little ambitious for part of a 24h project.
Lyrics:
the world was hurt today
with news scary to say
we lost another man
right when progression began
and I hate to see you go
I just wanted you to…
This one was originally slated for the RPM, but I never got to it. I put together this layout one day, and it hasn't progressed since then, but vocals are coming. Does anyone have Tom Waits' phone number?
This is beautiful. It helps a Jersey guy understand that there southwester sitchiAshun.
Thanks for taking the time to listen and to comment.
Lets somehow colab someday.
best, kss

Lyrics:
Caged as a bird
free will is such a bitch
it's your responsibility to stay alive
pay the bills etc, etc
but how you enslave yourself
whether or not you enslave yourself
it's up to you
Just ran over to fave this, but I see I already have. What astonishing taste I have.
Lovely intricate guitar with provocative emotional undercurrents. I know exactly what I mean.
Brando, this is my favorite. It's beautiful... that weird beat flanger is really nice. what really makes the song for me is the end: the way it dissolves into this sad chordal montage....you got me there.

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.
In the outro: Trombone, Horns, Clarinets, Mouthpiece buzz by Andy Hentz (arrsuarez) and organic drum related sounds by Glu.
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.

The sister can throw a vocal on anything of mine any day as far as I'm concerned.
I like this, very nice. You ought to have Sister Savage do some lyrics and vocal on it. Her voice would be good on this.
Wow, this is a great tune. Love it...

Very Mellow. I dig!

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.

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.
