Left here smilin' but you came back mean
Ain't no need to tell me, I know where you've been
Ya tell me you love me, an' you really care
an' if you just had some more, you'd be happy to share
You came back wantin' once you'd lost in all…

This started as I was finishing off the comment to "I Promise" and I was grabbed immediately by the Didgeriedoo like sound ....which ,hey I presume is a didgeridoo ?
I have one of those which I can drone ,but I am buggered if I can get the hang of circular breathing....hey the production on this is excellent at about 05:00 the tinklesa and then the hand drums (sorry I am shite when it comes to id'ing various ethnic and "primitive" drums)The talking in the background really works quite well.Ah there they go ,clearing off ...and in comes another...the background chirping at the transition and then a bit more reminds me of living in Singapore and the variety of night time noises that serensded you to sleep....or frigging well kept you awake depending on the time of year and how loud they were !
Ar these your percussion sounds...you must sharethe same playroom as Norm ....cool beats and rhythms .....At ten minutes I have hit the download button this is a definite keeper......this is almost soporiphic,and I mean that in a good way at about 12:00 plus i am almost more chilled than I have been for a little while ....nearly nodding off....nice little rhythm and echo set up going on here....we seem to be drawing to the end of this nocturnal journey with the inclusion of some synth swoops and swirls....sunrise ..dawn ..? and a fade ...excellent.
Most fun and enjoyed....sorry about tye blow by blow commenting but I got a little caught up in the moment .See Ya Later

I seem not to have got the hang of replying to comments...so I will tag my answer to your question re "Jumbled Layer"..all instruments were Weltmeister Stella 60 bass Ackordeen I only picked that up in September so am not very good with it yet...Squier Strat,Vintage 6 string Banjo (which is a nightmare to keep in tune ) and triangle played on the yammy keyboard...the only "fake" instrument.....as I type this out in my single simple fingered way I been listening to" I Promise"....very soothing and restful....some really nice improv going on ...the guitar fiddle has a smooth and mellow voice...great stuff......

This one is for all of you intrepid audio explorers out there: our latest experimental improv featuring Treefrog on electrified cigar box & washboard... Definitely not for the faint of heart!

Nicely done sirrah...now I remember why it is that I came back by here again ....the juxtaposition of the bass drum with the jazzy high tones are spot on and make an atmospheric blend....that guitar is how I like it...understated ,simpl sounding single notes strung out to their extremeties....NOT a simple technique....great first tune to come back to...
Cheers Jarvoid
New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…
My 100th upload to Alonetone!
I played a pretty random arpeggio which I arranged into 3 versions of medium notes, long notes, and short notes followed by a gap. I cloned these version and transposed them up and down one octave respectively…
---------------------------------------------
EDIT:
---------------------------------------------
I finally was able to remix the song. Please listen to "Fide On The Broom Stick (Version 2012)" in my track list to compare…
Nice track! I like the added orchestration right before 3 min... lots of nice textures & layers in this one, I like it as is. The title got my attention, love the Granny Weatherwax connection.
Recorded the intro and traffic sounds on my bus ride to work two years ago. This one is urban-esque, breakbeaty, and switches up the tempo a few times. And there are fat funky synths to boot.
I haven't tried the vox pipes in a few months. I've been sickly and singing was out of the question. After 24 days of instrumental RPM, I started getting back to 99%.
Might as well sing right? Better yet , let me trash the greatest song of…
This is a piece written for 37signals, made to accompany a [fun video they did on Letterpress printing](http://37signals.com/svn/posts/2795-a-letterpressed-thank-you)
The track is best listened to in context of the video, since it's scored…
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…
I saw "the Watchmen"....got me thinking.
are we truly immortal?
will we live through the material passing
or have we died oh so close to the light
not from this earth
not bound by its laws
A slave of no one
I will move beyond

Final version
One of my heroes. Willie McTell was blind from birth and travelled all over the south in the thirties at a time when many people would never go more than 20 miles from their home.
Plus nobody sings the blues quite like him…
Final version
RPM 2011 - my first track recorded and the opening track for the CD
A kind of Old Time gospel number, which, if you listen to those pre-war guitar playing preachers, are virtually indistinguishable from blues. Except for the lyrics…
Aw, we tried to make this a bit more pro, but sometimes the really fun moments in life are fleeting. So here it is warts and all. But don't mind that - just get out onto the dance floor with Reg! It's ok: he's up to date on his shots.

Comments on Cave Street's stuff
Very cool....nice feel and ambiance to it
The tones and sub bass kick butt on my 800 watt studio monitors, cool.
I really like this! Very pretty.
Cool. I missed this, thanks Djork.

Damn nice! Love that guitar. Thanks for listening man and have a good Christmas yourself!

Nice improv man!
Ah, nice. Simple, but it takes me places.
Beautiful tone. I could listen all night.
My gosh, you guys are the ad lib kings! Magical guitar tone. Love the brooding percussion also.
Hey, tha,nks for listening! Great song; haunting, and in the beginning it has a bit of a Tool feel.
I like it! I gotta get me an electric cigar box!
smoother than babies bottom........
I love the floating feel this has.
Cheers, Jarvoid!

Your vocals & some of your lyrics remind me of Trey Anastasio... Love the change about a minute & a half in - jamming track!!
Excellent work, reminds me of Blue Rodeo, one of my all-time favorite bands!
One of my all time favorite NY tunes (and that's really saying something)... nice one, esp. the extra bendy guitar parts - Neil would approve!
Nice one, Dave. I could never attempt this in a million years! Good work.
I'm a little late to the party, but happy 100th nonetheless! *LOVE* this track!
Nice track! I like the added orchestration right before 3 min... lots of nice textures & layers in this one, I like it as is. The title got my attention, love the Granny Weatherwax connection.
nice one dig the tempo change
Paul, I think this is your best vocal yet, it sounds as if you're exploring a new range! The backing vox add a whole other dimension.
enjoyed the video! well done!
this is excellent!
cheers mate
This digs so deep today.
Too much! Great track, *love* the vocal!
Great stuff, Stu! This is the real deal!
nice track, I dig this record!
psychedelic!
Loving the layers of sound!
Really like this one! I would like to be able to read the words to this one. All of them actually, so please post the lyrics!
really liking you album, dude... but out of listening time right now. will resume later
Great track!!! Thanks for the comments, Norm. Lyrics have been posted.... :-)
