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…

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…
The sounds recorded for this piece represent some of the oldest known musical vibrations combined with some of the most modern electronics: the iPhone.

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…

And, thanks for the kind words :)

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!
Ring of Fire - lyrics by Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash -1963. Slightly modified.
This wasn't meant to be Ring of Fire but that's how it wound up.
I have been wanting to trash Ring of Fire and the words just seem to fit this simple 1-4-5…
@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....
This is pretty cool! I'd really like to read more about these tracks. If you have the time, maybe you could add some info to the "about" section for each song.
Enjoying your music Steve.... I recently signed up at ImprovFriday and hope to be able to contribute something in the near future. Interesting that the time listed for this track is 2:51 and yet it played until 4:38. I don't think I've ever seen alonetone do that before.
More LoopShifted piano accompanied by Stylus RMX and Omnisphere. At over eight minutes it's perhaps a little self-indulgent but maybe it's more like punting down the river Styx than jet-skiing on a lake of fire.
Frustrated with how slow my solo acoustic/vocal songs are going, I decided to spend the weekend making something chilled out, just to relax myself and to let people know I haven't died.
Its a short instrumental track. I call this minimalist electronica…
This track hasnt started off sounding anything like this. I had a drum beat in my head, so I keyed it into my laptop, then edited it around and it ended up like this.
then i recorded everything, and just as i was about to save it.. EVERYTHING…
Its a song that was inspired by a dream I had. In fact.. it was the soundtrack to the dream. The ending is purposely left with a feeling of being not finished, as I can't remember how the dream ended.
I hope you all like it :)
this was originally a song about breaking through paradigms but turned into a song about a girl.
Keys and string samples from Korg, MIDI with the old Ensoniq,
one diving board.
Thanks for the listen ,enjoy... RW

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

Dammit, this one keeps fading out before I'm done with it... *Repeat*
this is neat
Excellent track!

Cool track!
NICE!
Psychedelic!
Interesting choice for the last piece... a bit of a wake up following the chill out of the previous songs. Dig the drums. Another top track.
I agree with Kirk regarding note choices. Quite jazzy. Well done!
More groovy bass! These pieces go very well together, a very nice EP you've put together here.
A nice moody piece.
Good stuff. Dig that bass.
I dig this.
Great track.... very intimate sounding. Thanks for sharing
this one makes me nervous. well done
lots of great textures & spaces to explore Like!
i can dig it
nice track! would like to hear more
