Not terribly odd except for how I did it with Fretless gutiar.
I recently bought a used Fender Squier for $60, pulled the frets with pliers, filled the cuts with plastic wood, sanded, and jammed. Took about 2 hours to make the guitar fretless…
Thanks to Colin for writing, performing and producing this song, and for letting me mod it. I think it's a great tune, benefits from an uptempoing. This is Hot Wheels Spaulding reimagining Colin's song 'The View'

This is first rock kind of song by our group "Quartet In Space". I hope you can enjoy with this one.

A masterpiece. I can relate to this one. My sister was killed by a drunk driver. It was a weird night. Everything just seemed kind of hazey and surreal. We were at a party in bull run mountains va. In retrospect...kinda like I knew something was wrong. Everything got hectic, I heard someone saying, "Something happened to Cheryl." Time was moving slower. Motion changed. I got in a car with someone..it was packed full...to go see what happened. My brother yanked me out of the car. I'm glad he did. She was hit in the head by a mirror on a truck. The truck was going down a big mountain hill. He was going pretty fast. She died 72 days later with a blood clot in her lung. The guy didn't even fng go to jail. He was seen drinking at a bar shortly after he hit her.

As the song says, this is a song I wrote for the RPM Challenge. I simply took my actual experience beginning at 12 midnight on February 1st, and a couple or three hours later I had my first song. The player takes away the intensity of this track…
Summer Grass- I didn’t originally intend for this to be the title track, but since most, though not all, of the songs on this album sound like summer to me, I decided, why not? The guitar even sounds humid and warm, but in that nice July way…

A tune composed late in 2009, i've released it as well as other two tracks and some photos from a friend of mine as a micro-ep recently for free! Enjoy!
This is using a tuning I borrowed from The Smashing Pumpkins, which goes E-A-D-G#-B-E. Not…
Thanks you all for the listen, Im glad you enjoyed it! Getting some great feedback and its very exciting!
@kirklynch: It isnt much of a change out of standard, as I said, but i found this little shift on the G -> G# really does add a nice accent. I'll post some other songs where I use this tuning so you can all see some other adjustments this tuning makes!
This is the first song I uploaded to share on the internet when I first donned the name Alpha_Alpha. Thanks to fellow 'lonetoners and SoOn friends Norm and Vaisvil for contributing to make this song really special!
Thanks all for listening, and a warm welcome!
@norm: Reefwalker invited me not too long ago, but i've been having a tough time getting things together IRL the past month or so. SInce I finally packaged some material for 'mass' release. How could I forget this one, though? Great work as always Norm, and pleasure to join the crew here too ! :D

You're right, funky is the word! Really clever, makes me smile.
Sounds so lonely and melancholy. Truly lovely, beautifully played and I like the different melodies in there, very pretty.
Um, hell yeah!!!!!!!!!
Who needs frets? Funky good!
That's really nice. Would be good with some vocals too. :)
Completely love this! Great energy and attitude!
DAMN! this rocks!

most fascinating! That bass-line...that everything! Well done.
oh hell yea man! Cool feel to this one
cool!
Superlative stuff as usual, Gary. And of course your recording skills continue to amaze me!
amazing stuff!
Really lovely. I feel like the musical equivalent of a caveman with a tuned stick when I hear real musicians like you perform!
Fantastic - I especially love the bass playing on this.
Hilariously irreverent... made even better by its straight-faced delivery.
Love this song - as well as the rest of your album. Definitely in my Top Ten of 2010 RPM Challenge entries!
cool effects and key changes.
