Cyborgs conquer the planet, crushing resistance and enslaving the human race. The cello represents the people who ignore the destruction and carry on as normal, like the orchestra playing on the deck of the Titanic as it went down.
Are you kidding me???!!!??? This is extremely badass music, I would try to get away with a crime listening to it. That good! The guitar has a slight ly "junky" sound that should be patented - Love it. Very cool, I love it

Thanks Tom. I'm not sure if the mix of instruments worked. I was trying to contrast the power of the invasion with the futility of resistance and panic of the human survivors, but perhaps I was being a bit ambitious. It was fun though, and if you listen carefully at the beginning you will hear my dog getting in on the act. She heard me shouting and ran in barking, thinking that there was really someone (or something) here! I had to laugh!

I really like the mix of sounds you have going on here, Steve! The highest complement I know to pay is to say that it reminds me of a mix of AC Newman's "Town Halo" and Buckethead's best album, "Population Override" (which also tells a sci-fi story across several instrumentals). That said, you obviously have your own muse and it's one I appreciate.
That beer on the table yours or mine?
I only left the room for a short time.
If you've gone and switched them I'm gonna be sad,
Cos that beer was the best one that I ever had.
Don't drink my beer, you hear?
I'm counting to 4 just to make…

Thanks Tom. Boring the listeners is my greatest fear! Yes, I suggest headphones because there is a swirling stereo effect which only works properly with headphones on, as you rightly guessed. This song is about the rise of the Cyborgs, from initial communications to a robotic type march on humanity, a la Terminator style.
Thanks DJ Ursine. I can't take all of the credit for this. I use loops mostly, and the timing takes care of itself on the app I use. An ear for what will work, and some imagination helps, but I guess I'm more of a DJ than a musician.
Cool experimental sounds you have here, Steve! I really appreciate how you never rest on your laurels by relying on a formula. Instead you push your sounds in new and exciting ways--it's quite inspirational. So what's this one about? Does h/phones suggest we should be listening to this with headphones to get the desired effect? I can def see how this would be even more impactful w/ headphones!
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!!
My little steam train
Rolling down the tracks
My little steam train
Going to take me back
All aboard!
The conductor shouts
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.

Thanks, you're very kind
very nice
cool stuff
Thanks launched! It's great to inspire action and response with my music, but don't get yourself arrested buddy! : )
Oh, and all the fancy funky swirly curly tones and beats make me want to defy authority!

Thanks Tom, happy to oblige
Amazing stuff, Steve! You have a real knack for combining catchy beats with creative soundscapes. Looking forward to hearing more!
Thanks Proods, glad you like it!
Amazing! Very impressive composition!
Thanks Jason
nice

Thanks Proods. I appreciate your comments guys!
Such a variety of sound! Amazing talent!
Amazing composition....a real gem!

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!
