Recently, my wife and I discovered the TV show Portlandia, and it has become our Saturday morning ritual to watch the latest episode with our coffee. Anyways, I kind of got the theme song (http://www.ifc.com/fix/2011/02/portlandia-whats-that…
This evolved out of an exercise in a workbook I just got on music composition. The original task was to write a melody in the Dorian mode about water...
This track is actually 99.583333% M.T.C. But, I needed an easy project for July, since I didn't have a lot of time last month. He had published it as a "B-Side" called "Quarter of a 60th Spanish." For fun, I just added a few subtle twists. Probably…
Well, who do think came down the cellar last night... Yep! you guested it, Charlie Sheen, he was none too happy. He should have been if the girls with him were anything to go by. He'd come to talk to Elvis about handling the Yes men and how he…
This has probably the least effert i've ever put into a song , i was sat at my computer falling asleep , when i had the urge to sing this beautiful George Harrison song , i could'nt be asked to get up and change guitars , so using my PRS Singlecut…

After watching the video of the tsunami devastating the shores of Japan, I couldn't work anymore. So instead I sat down to dedicate a few hours of…

Electric blues. Recorded 2007. I was learning how to use my DAW and trying to figure out how a one-man-band could get to sound like a bunch of old bluesers in a sweaty bar...

**Rabbit Boy - A A J Russe**
Well she don't mind crying…
Vocals: Sabrina Doughty
Lyrics: Grant D. McLeman
Composed, arranged & mixed by Steffen Offermann
This is the 2012 remix.
This song was based on a free-form lyric by Grant D. McLeman from Scotland. Quite a challenge ... :)
Vocals: Tricia Dovidio
Lyrics: Bob Beckley
Composed, arranged & mixed by Steffen Offermann
This one was tricky to do because the piano does not play at a fixed tempo, and it was an online collaboration (like all my collaborations).
Guitars: Alina Yudaeva
Composed, arranged & mixed by Steffen Offermann
This never turned out like I wanted it to be because I could not find a real drummer and bassist for it. But at least Alina was kind enough to play the lead guitar…
The old tin geetar...
Did this one sometime in 2009 on a Boss MBR. I'd recently joined what became Songcrafters.org and PJ (Wiley) posted a bass/drum track for us ubiquitous blues guitarists to solo over.
I decided to go a different route…
This is a collaboration with a prolific chap called James Higgins (oldrottenhead on songcrafters.org), based on an instrumental of mine from a couple of years ago: http://alonetone.com/andyr/tracks/muletide
I was quietly minding my own business…
reminds me a little of tom petty. don't you hate when random people tell you what your song reminds you of? anyway, really nice song. all of your stuff is excellent :)
New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…
Comments on Djörk's stuff
Sorry it took me 11 to check this out (no internet connection)...sounds good!
Groovin on this one tonight
This and djorklandia sound like movie music to me. Grand landscapes and epic travel shots.
Nice -- this sounds fantastic through headphones. I like how the bass is clearly separated out from the higher instruments.
:)
Wow! This is great! I heard the version with MTC, but missed the original
amazing! so cool this came from a workbook exercise...
fantastic track, nice work!
wow, awesome!
excellent, so musical! wish i could compose stuff like this...
trip thru space, I like the change ups throughout. Nylon? guitar bit is a great addition to the various textures here.
Oh Yes! This is excellent!
Far out indeed. Nice work.
Excellent arrangements
Awesome-O :)
Dig the name, (nylon guitar?) - Far out, man!
Woo - lots happening in here. Cool sounds. Nice one.
Great groove and good nebula to look at thru a telescope!

nice album. I really enjoy your edgy electronic style; it reminds me of the music of my youth :)
really enjoyed this album :) extremely creative stuff. a few of the tracks really confused my poor dog, though. hope you come back to AT soon.
You should hide a link to this somewhere on the alonetone homepage :)
great job with the chorus effect at the chorus. it really does sound like there are three or four of you :)
nice country version :) i just kind of wish you hadn't said 'manure'
great playing and composition, plus I love the sound of your guitar here.
you should send this one to Sade (for a small fee, of course :)
nice, sad little song - hat's off to the vocalist, too :)
I like this a lot - very nice work :) It would make a nice film soundtrack, I think
beautiful guitar work here
reminds me a little of tom petty. don't you hate when random people tell you what your song reminds you of? anyway, really nice song. all of your stuff is excellent :)
instant classic - really nice job!
really great and creative song, but now it's totally stuck in my head, damn you :)
