On this beach made of sand and shells
and broken hearts
as with so many things in this life
it ends where it starts
And like the waves that will roll over me
you take away everything that I see
So I walk to the place where the sand
and sky…
"I'll know it when I see it"
Is what she finally said
"If there was some other way
I'd do that instead"
And blindly without question
I followed down that trail
That led into the hidden night
Beyond the parted veil

A WildGeas and CaveStreet collaboration
some say once upon a time
there was a line
that was never meant to be crossed
if ever that occurred
you might have heard
an innocence would have to be lost
but having crossed that line
I can…
Hey thanks, Jacob! Paul (WildGeas) and I are working on some new stuff even now. Perhaps you're right... I should put this album in a more prominent place on my page. Thanks for listening! :-)

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…
super cool track!
too early to drink but too late to have coffee:)
as for the sounds i think i will just try to recreate my own sins i just bought a Blue HD microphone...anyway this was delight for my ears...thanks for uploading.
@Terrapin - I do like to double (or more)the vocal tracks... On this track it's an acoustic guitar, an electric through a line6 swell effect, and an old yamaha analog keyboard....

just a few random weird alien sounds or "smart intelligent words" coming from a wisdom person...My voice is garbage that's why i stick to music lol
but whatever you have and want to share would be cool cause I'm going to need a few.

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?

"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
Yes sir thats a great song.
I like the Mark Lanegan style vox.
Ah the voice! Lovely, laid back guitar sounds.

Hey thanks, Jacob! Paul (WildGeas) and I are working on some new stuff even now. Perhaps you're right... I should put this album in a more prominent place on my page. Thanks for listening! :-)
Great tune...this should have more number of listens...great!
You did a great job with it mate, not an easy one to sing. Hope we can do some more soon. Cheers. Johnny.

i like the double tracked vocals, i use the same trick a lot. how much of your instrumentation is synthesized?
just a few random weird alien sounds or "smart intelligent words" coming from a wisdom person...My voice is garbage that's why i stick to music lol but whatever you have and want to share would be cool cause I'm going to need a few. Tank you
Title drew me in like a magnet, you my friend have some talent. adding to my chill favorites!
like pink floyd early stuff...i like it very much..it gave me hope...
nice stuff!
your vocals are very soothing. songs are great too!
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!

All time faved!
