Very romantic start. Sort of islands in the mist with a hint of sadness. Against the sea almost definitely. Whisps of light and shades of hades at the same time. Backwards guitar gives interesting texture, but can be swine to get right.

Good use of sounds in here. Not at all like my usual techno babel. Start brought to mind something primevial and then a soundscape for a scifi horror train in a futuristic fairground ride.
Cheers

Dad wanted me to write him some funeral music. This is it. He's still alive at 91 and sings this song to himself and tears come to his eyes. I have a video of Dad and me singing a duet of this song.

A Song I wrote about a friend of mine who used to Jump out of planes a lot.
This is one of the hidden tracks on my new album "Black Cat" which features Beth, Keith and Reewfwalker from alonetone and Geir and Jim from Songcrafters.
Here is a…
An experiment that became a meditation.
Two tracks. One guitar, one looper, one e-bow, two tracks and a touch of Live's Overdrive effect on the second e-bow track.
The starting premise was could I get the sound of many guitars by continually…
This is a tune I picked up from alonetone a while back. Johnny did a piano version of "I'd Love to Change the World", and Michael Thomas from Cave Street added the outstanding vocals.
When Michael told me he was doing the vox on it, I wanted…
Also nearly unchanged from the demo version, although it still needs a bit of revision. Kept the title this time.
5 tracks guitar
1 bass
1 Indian toy/souvenir bowed instrument of unknown name
Sorry for killing the comments when I deleted…
I am noticing a patter in the musics like at minute five to minute five and a half I start to slow down and change up the systems.. anyway when i mixed the two things they came out like this.

Odd, but somehow interesting... :)
Wow, sounds like some kind of clockwork romance!

how many aps have you got on that sumbitch? I might have to get me one of these things. :P
I think we're vibrating on the same wavelength. Excellent experimentation man.
Clearly things are very good in Valles Marineris...

oh so good!!!! Cant believe this source of this!! Pro!
Very cool! The first couple of minutes are like some kind of tribal techno
Ooh, this is potent. Love that heavy rhythm underpinning the experimental ambience in the first couple of minutes.
Wow! It's kinda out there. Not sure what to make of this. Could be my closed mind. Cool in its own way. sixmilewide member
nice! can't wait to hear how you incorporate these ideas into your show :-)
This one has a nice flow to it. The flute adds another dimension to the sound, with the bass adding depth.
pretty neat man.
I gotta break out the DL4 and the looper again and figure out how you do some of this stuff. Great sounds man!
I've been looping this album for hours... One of my favourites!
Real nice one. Nice album cover too.
I'm digging that funky stuff with the octave pedal. Cool!
Nice! Sounds like it was mostly improvised on the spot

another excellent alonetone artist that just dropped out of sight...
Wish I could get a clean gtr sound like this. My Tele has such a buzz. Nice.
Nice dynamics, method.
Great dynamics. Interesting method!
Great great James. I like the picture you took of him thru the window on FB.
this is wonderful!
Thanks Kirk, only guitar fx are the DL4, live looping, playing over a background of virtual Partch instruments altered and looped with Sound Doodle.
Nice violin and a bit of Latin vibe.
Great sounds in this playlist yawl! http://alonetone.com/inkfuel/playlists/near-the-east-coast-of-honshu Thanks for helping Japan.
cool sounds here. Like flute/synth/perc mix!
Still awesome ebowing!
Awesome additions to Johnny's version.
Excellent album, enjoying very much.
Yeah this is really good, didnt care for the autotune thing at the beginning, tho.
Nicely done, great album. Makes me want to read the book now.
Fantastic tone! Kinda short :(
Your songs are so tuneful, and great harmonies.
Cool piece acid but kind LOUD!
Wow. 2-3 minute ambient soundscapes. How do you do that? Like this project.
agree with Kirk, this is my 3rd listen here and at IF. Like the spare arrangement and the backward cymbals. The comic brings back a memory, too.
