First draft. Dedicated to my mother on her birthday. In the outro: Trombone, Horns, Clarinets, Mouthpiece buzz by Andy Hentz (arrsuarez) and organic drum related sounds by Glu.

A quick transitional piece - sort of a hybrid of ambient drone and louder rock.

 MMi's Voices http://alonetone.com/mmi/tracks/voices-3 MMi wrote the song. I programmed percussion, recorded tabla and vocals.

An acapella bit of Shreya's. She had recorded it to sound super high-pitched, and when I dropped it down a few octaves, was treated to a wonderful Bjork sound. At her request I threw some hip-hop beats underneath and away we go. Scary and sexy…

Shreya's composition, a tale of love and death that is also perhaps a sly reference to the most famous proponent of the ontological argument for you-know-who. This is the dreamy guitar version, and there is also a classical-sounding piano version…

Just a fun track I made that I haven't quite figured out how to integrate Shreya's piece 'Hades' over the middle section. A bit jarring but I still like it.

Earlier this year I was in a community choir, mostly senior citizens performing songs by bands like Soundgarden and Green Day. One of the songs, "Grateful," had a lyric that went 'In a city of strangers/I have a family of friends.' It was Halloween…

This song was written to celebrate freedom, actually, (the Russian at the end is one of the dudes from Freesound.com saying "sound should be free!") after a decade when I wasn't. Props to Shreya, who apparently is like me and will just not go…

This was the first song Shreya played me, and she said it came to her in a dream, and I believe it. It's flooring, and her vocals/acoustic guitar are relatively untouched. I added the other virtual instruments, and if you listen carefully, you…

That didn't stop her. Main vocals/bleeps by Shreya, keys and backing vocals by me. Actually, my baby daughter was in my arms while I was doing those vocals and she started crying. Even though I cropped that part, I didn't use any noise reduction…
