I hear the sound of one heart breaking
an I wonder whose it is
then I come to realize
I'm the only one there is
oh how'd I get so far away
how has it come to this
of all the things I've had and lost
there's only one I really miss…
>Who are these yahoos and were they serious?
@Mrs. Nussbaum's Credit Card- Yeah, it's a true story if that's what you mean. :-)
I recorded a conversation with a friend of a friend and then did a whole lot of cutting & pasting. The rest of the song is made up of tracks I stacked up one at a time.... this one is about 5 years old.
I listened to a bunch of your stuff yesterday when I was tiling my bathroom. I didn't have time to comment then. This is a great song (as were many of them, if not all, but I was fading in and out of listening range so, I'm sure I missed some, just being honest and accountable). Who are these yahoos and were they serious?
I been walkin' since 3 am
From Empire to Birmingham
An' now I'm headed down Vulcan Lane
Kudzu eatin' the road away
Air ain't friendly, skies are gray
An' things round here don't seem the same
If there's one thing for sure that's true…

you say i got no reason
to be here knockin' on your door
i guess ya had no reason
to think you might see me anymore
hey I got some news for you
yes i do
y'know i seen a lot
of different things
through these two eyes
i've heard…

I honestly didn't even know there was such a thing... I must have missed quite a lot while I was hunkered down in the cave here for so long.... I guess I completely lost track of time. I certainly had some VERY strange dreams.... Btw, is it still 2013?

Once You asked me
If I could see the end
It's okay to tell the truth
I don't want you to pretend
And I said I would not lie
But I don't believe it ends
It goes on And on Forever Forever
It goes on…

Nice, very nice!
Tell your kids - we'll send lyrics to "old" soon! We got a real kick out of their question about "just remember i'm santa clause :)
And, thanks for the kind words :)

Featuring Otis Maly on Organ.
Maybe it’s a trick of the light
The way your eyes shine at me
I don’t want to fight and I can’t take flight
Somethin’ tells me I’m gonna see
Just what spell you put on me
I can’t let you out of my sight…

Thanks Dave, props to Otis Maly on that one. He's an amazing local musician who I hope to interest in playing on more Cave Street tunes!
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…

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..

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, this is cool, cool, cool
Thats a smooth, cool sound here.

Nice thoughtful piece. Crystal clear production. Tops.
This is fantastic, it's going on my mp3 player.

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!
