We are okay to go. As our spirits we are sending ourselves on missions never ending, we are okay to go, we are okay to go. Rainbow colors flashing, astral waters splashing, canopy projected, our spirits are protected, we are okay to go, we are…
A little white house, just off the highway, ghost of a black cat scratchin’ at the door. Old dry well out in the backyard, we just can’t use it anymore. There are some secrets here. Oh, there’s secrets everywhere. I know nothin’ more or less…
Fourteen days till my ship sets sail, fourteen days of nonstop hail, punchin’ holes in everything I see. Fourteen days of howlin’ wind and rain, fourteen days full of doubt and pain, gnawin’ my guts till finally I’m free. I can’t stop, I can…
When the bombing ends and all that's left is sand and bones and charred remains, what will you think then? Will you call it a win? Or will you lay down and die with all the rest? Its not too late to stop, call this death march to a halt. I promise…
Fourteen days till my ship sets sail, fourteen days of nonstop hail, punchin’ holes in everything I see. Fourteen days of howlin’ wind and rain, fourteen days full of doubt and pain, gnawin’ my guts till finally I’m free. I can’t stop, I can…

A solar flare is the ejaculation of energy from the north pole or the south pole of this super concentrated point which has turned itself into a black hole because it has so much energy that it’s sucking in everything around it at such an exponential…
All guitars by my good friend Chris Mitchell. I had a chance to record this while I was in Dallas this past Summer. This is a companion piece to my song Secrets from the "Of Sound Mind" album, my RPM 2009 entry.
Remake of another old song. This is little me and my big acoustic, recorded with two cheap microphones. The dynamics of this song make it next to impossible to get the flat sound I want out of it. Any recording engineers out there? ;…
My girlfriend was born in the Middle East, that's why I've come to listen a lot to Arab, Persian, Turkish, and Tuareg music. I improvised this song within a few early morning hours after coming home from a concert by the incredible Tuareg rock…
Several listeners told me that this song reminds them a lot of Air. By that time I only knew that there was a band with this name, but I had never listened to any of their songs. But now they're one of my favorite bands and I listen to them in…

But then sometimes in the colorless light of a hazy windy moonlit night, the feeling haunts you like you've known that you would always be alone.
But then sometimes in the sparkling sun, you think of things you should have done…

This is a rough mix of a track I did with the one & only Norm Harris. I've got some vocals in mind, but it may take some time to put it together, so meanwhile here's the instrumental version. Big thanks & major props to Norm…
I'm at work & listening to this now... still not quite satisfied with the intonation of the hurdy-gurdy (I had to pitch shift the sample I found). Reefwalker has done an excellent remix which I will probably upload this evening provided he gives his permission.

Thanks for the comments! I've now upped a different mix with a hurdy-gurdy sample.... not exactly what I had in mind, but you get the idea. Let me know if you or someone you know plays a hurdy gurdy, and we'll do it right.
An experiment in using [Photosounder](http://photosounder.com/) which is a spectral editing tool.
This track started as a sharp tin can hit which I turned into a droning gong. But I had no idea where to go next.
So I started rifling through…
You're just kidding yourself if you thought I could resist the chance to add a bit of percussion to this wonderful song by Osckilo & Launched. I used Paiste Sound Discs to create a 3vs.4 polyrhythm against the delightful underlying 4/4 Spanish…
As I had nothing better to do last night, I had this great idea that I would construct a rhythm for the 24 hour challenge. This would be different: a 24 minute drum solo (I mean, who wouldn't love that?). I even had a perfect bass riff: the "Mother…
No doubt you have heard parts of this before.
Guys - if I could play like this I would not be making a living as a chemist! This is a midi file I ran through pianoteq - I put this together in an hour this morning and I wanted to share before…
I couldn't talk for a while afterwards and I felt like a moron after listening to my vocals, but it had to be done :) So no laffin'!

Ah man! I want to hear this blend in to the previous track and on to the next! Love the way this album is going!
Ouch! My poor brittle heart! Such tender vox against an almost chiming bed of sweet music. Magical. Welcome back, Cave Street!
If I put aside Wake Up, My Skin, Blue, Nothin' to Lose, Do, and Funeral Chant, this is my favorite Cave Street Tune.
Hey, Mark - you got rhythm. Lovely track, Michael.
I really like this, Michael, vox, clapping, the lot.
Wonderful vocal! w;-)
Really comes alive with earphones.
Dreamlike! Nice warm vocal. I love the family sounds.
I wonder if the next to last song in this album had something to do with this song? hehe. Pretty trippy.

...you had me at *tremolo*
Woah.... Heavy track!
Great music for enhancing the visuals.... Love this stuff!
Diggin' this! You ever listen to Greg Keelor of Blue Rodeo? Great sound & vibe on this... really excellent!
I like each of them for different reasons... What happens when you blend 'em? I'd like to hear that.
Nice dynamics and *epic* lyric, man!
This sounds like it could have come off of the "Infrared Roses" album... *most excellent!*
The legendary Bevis Frond would be proud to have written this one! Well done, chaps!

*VERY COOL!*
Dig it! I'll be checking out the rest of your stuff ASAP.... welcome to alonetone.

Really like this one, Stu!
WOW. Faved!
Killer track!
Chemist, you say? :-D
What's to laugh at?! This is a killer cover!
I still can't get over how freakin' great this take of this classic song is. Have I told you lately this is ** *AWESOME* ** ?
Nice work!
