My first rejected Ramen Music submission.
Too Much
I wrote you a letter but I never sent it
I was afraid you might never get it
or what if you did and I lived to regret it
and it was just too much for me to take
now its four in the morning…
I’ll make my exit on the wind
Nevermore to pretend
That I’m fine
Yeah, I’m good, so good
At doin’ everything I should
To convince you
That I’m okay for today
An’ I won’t crawl out of my skin
I’ll just pretend
Some days…

Hey Norm, it's Treefrog on the didg.... I can put you in touch if need be. Let me know.

Awesome, I wish I had more time these days to keep up with everyone. This one was beautiful, tender. I wish the vocals were just a bit higher in the mix... my ears aren't very good. :D

so very good. I love this song. It is the loss of the folks who rejected it I say, It was too good for their purposes. They couldn't handle the deep soul of this track.

This acoustic song is a drunk nihilistic escapade with a surprise ending; so if you like to howl, join along and do your best "ahhoooo.."
Lyrics:
At full moon, I was drunk as a skunk
My belly full of bourbon, and my breath really stunk…
Back to basics here. recorded with the Yeti mic.
Ramblin' round your city,ramblin' round your town
I never see a friend I know
As I go ramblin' round boys
As I go ramblin' round
My sweetheart and my parents I left in my old hometown…
This started with a couple of samples in a new version of Boite Diabolique where the samplers slide over them at different rates and varying granular density. I recorded some of that as I varied the rates and then brought the recording into Live…
Hey friends, it's been awhile! I just got back from Alpharetta, where I managed to get a few short hours hanging with my good friend Treefrog. We recorded a whole bunch of weird noises & then decided to do at least one "real" song. This is…
so you came in to play the muse
b/c your strung out from the road
and you were never much into coal
but your in love with a big black hole
sometime your enemies come in two
and your friends too
but you are one to choose
that you may win
and…
Well this just put a huge grin on my face! I like the breaks & the over the top (in the best way) vocal.... too bad a bout the clipping towards the end, is this one re-mixable?
This is my submission for Akron/Family's "Woody Guthrie's America" Project.

"My Love Belongs To You"
I may not know what I want to wear
or the best way to style my hair
I don’t know where I want to live
but I do have a lot of love to give
I don’t have many answers in life
but there’s one important one I do
and…
She keeps the stars from heading home
Just like a running grave
And at night when I'm alone
I wonder where I'm supposed to be
'Cause if the worlds a clock
Then she's the lock
That keeps it still every time she talks
She sees the space beneath…
The long 8 minute track from "The Haystack" revisited. I hope you all enjoy the more chilled out version w/o the spoken words.
Thinking of going back and recording the whole album over again as it was a rushed rpm 2010 thing.
This is an excellent track. Transportational!
I suggest playing this in one window while playing [Read Meat 1 by ACID](http://alonetone.com/acid/tracks/red-meat-1) in another! Awesome ambient mash-up!
Dude. I'm listening to this track of yours with [this track](http://alonetone.com/crypticmeadow78/tracks/bravely-go_revisited) in another window and it's pretty incredibly awesome. Total ambient mash up.
The three times he came to him
were in fact the three eyes of man
thrice his eyes decieved him
lies only made his wisdom
as deception distorted him
as inception courted him
the martyr of all man
the horror, for after all, satan
in his pure moment…
Reg was at his local AA meeting last night and just had to express some truth's he had to the others there......................but they didn't believe him they thought he could stop but Reg knew better.......i mean it was the Devil that told…
Did this back in 2009.
Before me and Jim actually met each other...
The music was improvised to the notion of returning home from space.
Jim did the Lyrics in 5 mins over the net..
And here it is..

Improvisation is what I love, finding out about things (when there is a little time).
I also post the video where I have used it in. Hedgehogs were here last year in our garden, and now they start coming back from hibernation. Uk, the hedgehog…
It seems a lot of you record with open mics and can relate. I record 1 track at a time with usually 4 or 5 tracks. So, Im only asking for about 15 minutes of Silence...IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK??? Anyway, my house is so loud, I get a lot of bloopers…
Sloane did me a favor & played an electric guitar part on this one. I had hoped to work with her more on this project, but she wound up leaving town to help take care for a recovering family member.

As far as I recall, that was simply a stock rhythm track from an old Alesis drum machine. I was applying some effects in real time during the mix, bringing the level up & down which gives it that cool swirly dynamic...
Thanks for listening!
Comments on Cave Street's stuff
Solid!! Man this is kick ass sh*t!
Yes - I love it!
I think I've said this before, but those are awesome vocals - Much like the incredible Mark Lanegan. Hell yeah!
> Norm said > Are you playing the dig on this one > by any chance? Hey Norm, it's Treefrog on the didg.... I can put you in touch if need be. Let me know.
Are you playing the dig on this one by any chance?
i like these kind of tunes...just relaxing...soft pillow for my head.
Dude, we need to talk about this one. Ramen may not want it, but I bet we could remix this one and get it on a sound track.
Awesome, I wish I had more time these days to keep up with everyone. This one was beautiful, tender. I wish the vocals were just a bit higher in the mix... my ears aren't very good. :D
Damn man I love this, so tender and fragile. Big time atmosophere on this song.
and I love your music.
This is perfect for a Rob Zombie movie. Desert road, convertible automobile, night falls, you stumble on a psycho hotel, you wouldn't sleep anyway.
Beautiful man!
Amen. :-)
Most intimate. Very nice Michael.
Nice one mate great vocals. Top track.
:-( I hope it's not the last. This is saucy. Liking your lower register. :-)
Lovely song, sexy smooth vocals too. Nice one. I like the sound effects too.
@Dave Berry - Thanks dude, you're too kind.
so very good. I love this song. It is the loss of the folks who rejected it I say, It was too good for their purposes. They couldn't handle the deep soul of this track.
Digging your smokey vocals on this one.Nice one man!
Comments made by Cave Street
Nice one, Nick.... nice & spooky. This is just about my speed. I could see (hear) myself possibly covering this one some day...
Nice one!
That choir chant coming in and out definitely makes this more psychedelic and somewhat disorienting... Nice textures & space.
> Wildgeas Music said > Nice job on the mix. Thanks! The one up now is the newer one, tried to clean it up just a bit...
Dig the vocal effect on this one! What are you using?
Well this just put a huge grin on my face! I like the breaks & the over the top (in the best way) vocal.... too bad a bout the clipping towards the end, is this one re-mixable?
Thanks, Trevor. Sometimes I feel like all my stuff sounds the same, so it's nice to hear that!
Dig the double vocal. Catchy tune, Trev! Reminds of the Ween 4track days.
Nice... I like the layered guitar tones. Also the percussion kicks. *Great track!* Welcome to Alonetone!
Thanks for the words! Sure would dig it if you'd post them for all your tunes.... help out these old rock n roll ears!
