I'm not usually into four-on-the-floor kinda EDM/dance numbers, but something about your track really appeals to me. The different textures/sounds are a welcome change from the usual stuff i, well.. tend to avoid. ;-)
Thank you for posting it, doktordoktor. I'm really enjoying it! ^_^
Inspired by a large stone I saw in the Ortspark in Munich, which somebody had carefully engraved with the name Mabel.
No loops used this time, all virtual instruments played by me. Cymbal, guitar, acoustic guitar, violin.

Rad stuff, Steve! It sounds like you're exploring new and exciting territories with your last few songs. Looking forward to hearing what comes next. :)
There's another plane that I'll ride
and only I know where I'm going
and without reason I can't think
and your lies won't let me sleep.
This early morning sunshine
gets sucked into the wall
where perhaps we might draw from it
when we are…
Miles Away is a very simple guitar riff and lyrics that match, but it's a song that came from the heart of one of the band's members. It's kind of a tune about a newly married couple...like most Prood songs it was recorded after one or two rehearsals…
Glad you like it Tom. No, it is not based on the Aerosmith song. I've never heard that until just now. I wanted to try a kind of fusion of rock and dance, and I thought the barking noise would be funny at the end, as there are no vocals. I then thought that an amusing title would be a pun on the expression "Walking the dog", as if the noisy music was waking the dog. - Just how my mind works I guess.
It's been so long since I've made any music I've kind of forgotten how. I was just noodling about and thought I had a sound I liked so I bounced it out quite quickly.
This one is all made with Reaktor and Boscomac's Air Piano ensemble, plus…
Live in the Living Room cover of Hawkwind's Master of the Universe
Done for the Songcrafters.org fest Live in the Living Room, I made this recording in one take. Which isn't how I usually work. My guitar was put through fuzz and distortion…
Thank you Greg Connor for putting his wonderful harmonica on this song. Enjoy!!

Rolling down the tracks
My little steam train
Going to take me back
All aboard!

Hear that horn blow
Hear…
This week, for the last few weeks, I had been working diligently on this, mixing elements of a gothic rock song,and elements of classical musical with the depiction of war, and hardship in mind. Ganon is always such an imposing force in these…
I recorded this one a while back for a short film which I am told will be out soon.
It's a reworking of my earlier piece, [gypsy caravan](http://alonetone.com/colingarvey/tracks/gypsy-caravan).
A Piece of Pi is our newest composition. It’s a brief summary of the story “Life of Pi”. A wonderful story needs a wonderful song. Hopefully we can meet this challenge and find like-minded people out there.
Comments on doktordoktor's stuff
Thanks Brett
I like the classic style and this was definitely an earworm for me -Tom
very nice dok
this is great
Haha! Thanks for listening Tom. I enjoyed making it, and it became a bit more light hearted as I went along.
I enjoyed what you did here, Steve! I can imagine this being the soundtrack to a remixed Road Runner cartoon.
Cool upbeat vibe on this one, Steve! Fun stuff!
I received your last kind comment and wanted to thank you. Blessings upon you, dear sir. Blessings upon your people.
Thanks guest. : )
very nice-as always!
Thanks keycrazy. I try to keep it interesting. I’m grateful to you for listening carefully and commenting on my music.

tony south dakotah loves you for your comments on his tracks on Alonetone, and he deeply thanks you.
Digging this one, Steve! The melodies, chords, and drums blend nicely with each other. Super cool closing solo too!
Great original music!
Sounds like you've stumbled onto a vibe that would fit right in on the new Blade Runner movie's soundtrack; great work here, Steve!
Thanks for your continued support Tom. This was an attempt at a techno sounding tune with enough, but not too many instruments. Glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks Brett. I had the idea, and then was a bit nervous about the end result to be honest. Thanks for your kind words
I like it, it's simple and strange, but it's pretty and works!
Rad stuff, Steve! It sounds like you're exploring new and exciting territories with your last few songs. Looking forward to hearing what comes next. :)

Strange and yet compelling.
Having fun while you make music is what it's all about guys! Love the vocal mix, simple tune but great message and very catchy too!
Love the guitars, slow build but very enjoyable guys! Well done.
Nice sound. Like it guys!
Lovely song. Great vocals, nice guitar, good arrangement.
London accents, cool music. Love it!

Interesting mix of sounds. Cool!
Very nicely done Ed.
Great fun!
Reminds me of John Lennon. I don't know the song, but very nice.
Remember this one too. Amazing effort by yourself!
I love this old song. Nice arrangement mate
Like it. Soft punk feel to it.
Nice version! Good job.
Enjoying riding on your train. Great stuff
Nice mix of sounds and very listenable
Love the mix and that harmonica being wrung out. Interesting the way it develops and assaults your senses. Great work Colin!
I had to listen again. Colleen's right. It's captured the movie in audio. Calm, stormy, pacy, slow, loud, quiet, and wonderful singing tops it off!
Love it! Rocking!
