He can't play nicely or share his toys
He always takes from the other boys
Got no time for music or vids
Doesn't act like the other kids
Does Donald
Don't let Donald play
He's gonna spoil your day
Believe his words if you must
But only…
A nice Talking Heads-esque biting commentary on The Donald. I consider myself a guitarist first and so my ear is always initially drawn in that direction and I like what you have going on here on that instrument. I also think the drums, vocals, and bass are nicely intertwined and complement each other well. Another fav, Steve!
A distress call from space is picked up, and then a race to rescue the crew ensues. I have attempted to contrast the peace of space with the urgency and determination of the rescue mission, and it's eventual success.

This is really awesome - my only complaint is that I wished I had heard it sooner! It would fit perfectly between Jeff Beck's "My Thing" and "So What" songs off his 2003 album, Jeff (which is his best album, imo). Excellent work, Steve!

Thanks Tom. I try to vary it a bit and not be too predictable. Next time I'm going to do a longer tune than the usual two minutes, but I don't want it to become boring. We'll see.
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.

I am movin' to this groovin'!
Thank you Tom. I'm trying!
Thanks proods and fairynuff!
Zang!
Amazing!
It's really impressive how you have so much going on here and yet it all fits together nicely. Def another one of yours that is a fav of mine!
Thanks for that!
Thanks DJ UrSine. I'm happy that you listened and liked it.
Thanks Tom. I wanted to convey urgency and confusion in the song. Glad you like it. BTW - I must listen to some Beck.

COOL! Real original!
I love how the heavy bass groove contrasts with the light crystalline reverb! The voices are a nice touch, too!
Thank you Colleen
Thanks Proods!
Lots of cool twists and turns here. Love how it keeps surprising! And now we are space dancing!!!!
Excellent as ALWAYS! Different...best so far!!

Thank you fairynuff : )
Cool stuff, Steve! I really like how you have an interplay between playful and profound moods.

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!
