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
This one's for that little black and tan, Nahannah.
Lyrics:
I said nahnay nahnay nahnay hey
how'd you get so good
how'd you get so good
I said nahnay nahnay nahnay hey
how'd you get so good
how'd you get so good
first thing this…
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…

ack! the glubot is blocked from the spam filter! I sent you a comment while logged in, still waiting for it to go through. Anyhow, amazing work, Brando. Love each style and mood. Nahnay Nahnay is my favorite tune so far, but they are each awesome...especially given that you did them in 24hrs.
Am very frustrated that I can't seem to leave comments at the moment and wanted to let you know that I am amazed by your excellent 24 project! So many different flavours, all of which are beautiful! Just amazing.

I recorded four minutes of bird life in a bamboo patch during my last day in the Amazon.
I arranged the string section with single note samples of cellos performed by the Philharmonic Orchestra.
A further march down the road in acl's evolution - and one of the many directions we've been dying to get to... it's, ummm, water-y. (And this song is especially dedicated to J Wentz.)
After an adventure in re-recording the entire song down a third, we came back to the original, tightened and tuned.
Always the self flagellating perfectionist, it still needs a bit more love. Always the pragmatist, it is probably done for now.
Yeah I wrote this with a little help form Dmoneye. Here are the lyrics:
2008 presidential (s)election
It’s the 2008 presidential selection, not election
planned to perfection by media's erection
for soundbyte speeches by political leeches

This is the basic theme for "weekend in new orleans", a documentary we're currently writing the soundtrack for (it'll be adapted with variations throughout the film). It's very quiet. (Video trailer coming shortly.)
i made this song up real fast. and i obviously threw it into the computer real fast. i have trouble with levels. but then again, that's what the songs about. let's hear it for Temper Tantrums!
good lord. i was addicted to crosswords, and therefore became uncontrollably competitive and paranoid.
[by the way, if anyone could help me master my songs, please give a shout! i can't seem to get them any louder...]

this song was created after hearing some downtempo, that was so minimalistic that we said, 'that'd be a great track, with some synth, vocals, bass, and beat variation' and so "syncronicity was born"

9. One big Eurocity
The title is nicked from a line in a Tuxedomoon-song. I wanted to have lyrics for this one about travelling and coming across similarities in different cities in Europe. But, alas, no time left. It's an instrumental now.
Comments on brando's stuff
Liked this a lot!
need to here these lyrics right about now. thanks!
yeah, composed in an intergalactic prison system!
This is great. I sense a penal colony in space. Compelling, futuristic piece. Oh I like this very much!
Hey, "how'd you get so good?" My admiration to you.
Could we be about the same age? I think your ear is more switched on than mine. Wonderful!
Well you pulled it off anyway! This is a 24 after all - not many can say they have accomplished that. This song is brilliant, love the bluesy touches.
What lovely depth on the guitar, very meaty.
A medieval quality, very pretty indeed. Didn't realise this epic was going on! Good for you!
This blew my socks off! w;-)
tranquil, melancholy, very inspiring

Awesome. Just beautiful - this is an astonishing 24 project. Brilliant stuff all round!
Wow, what an amazing track...love that dreamy 3 mins+!
Brando, you are my hero. Amazing work. Love each tune. Congrats on yet another 24h!
Great fun. A really great 24hr effort altogether!
Has kind of a Floyd vibe about it- like it!
Yes- I could get lost in this space. Nice stuff!
A good one hear. A 24 hrs well spent sir.
Comments made by brando
nice arrangement
Good to see another acl playlist.
Stuck in my head all day.
You're tapping into my greatest anxiety.
I hadn't heard this track yet. It's beautiful. Great theme.
These new ones sound so good. I'm a fully devoted fan.
Love that bass line. All I do when I’m not working or sleeping is cruise to alonetone incognito and listen to this song.
I'm really into this track.
Beautiful.
I'm late to the party on this one. SUPER COOL.
It seems there's some great music happening in Austin these days. I want more.
I just jammed out hard with this song. It's good fun.
Wonderful guitar overlay.
I can't believe I haven't commented on this song yet. Love it love it love it.
this makes me wistful
Makes my day every time.
Love those fingersnaps at 2:44 and that explosion at 3:22. This track is really something.
Wow. Great beat. This whole album has got me on the edge of my seat. Very engaging.
I love it all.
Trent Reznor and Prince had a baby and named it Glu.
