Written and recorded in 2006 (I think). Another I hesitated to upload since it's so sloppy, but I am filing it under For the Sake of Posterity...Don't remember much, but I think I was using an Ibanez Artist semi-hollow body guitar, PodXT, '70s…
Guitar loop from 2008. First loop where I bounced between different tracks instead of building part upon part. Flawed, but for better or worse, I rarely record something twice (why I left in the pop in the initial bed loop, I have no idea - well…
A couple of Irish jigs I wrote and recorded on piano (using either Reason or Cubase and EWQLSO, I really don't remember) a few years ago. The arrangement is incomplete and one I meant to add a little icing to. I may have to dig up the Reason file…

Simple theme from the audio sketch book. I used to try and write a melody or two a day, most of the time I just put them on paper...this one I happened to record.

From 2006 or 2007. One of the first (and one of just a few) pieces I wrote using Reason. I was definitely listening to Patrick O'Hearne at the time...might have to buy some real piano samples.

Thanks, I appreciate the comment...I'm so over due on another recording. Glad you commented it, at least it got me back to alonetone for some listening.
This is my 12 hour song (written, recorded, mixed, mastered) ... I pined away all day at it while a storm kept me company.
instrumentation:
a man lost his house and sold me his fretless bass for next to nothing. a family friend gave me…
close your eyes and imagine a glu concert-- what does it look like? describe this fake show to me... what would you want to see?
Oh, almost forgot. Many sounds, like these pretty cellos were found on freesound. I did manipulate the pitch on…
A moody solo acoustic thing that I came up with playing in a long forgotten tuning. Just got a new Zoom H4N, so this was recorded in my shop sitting at my reedmaking bench may 12 2009
Rough sketch of a proposed dreamy 12 string piece that I couldn't pull off on the 12 string so did this quick electric version with vocal pads. Not sure of the recording quality- sounds OK in my cans and kinda crappy on my monitors. Recorded march…
@Kirk - Yeah, some little things - my setup is cheap and low tech, but I played with some levels.
@VIVIAN CIRCLE - Thanks for the kind words. I'm enjoying the challenge, but wish I had more time to record and to listen to alonetoners....
My second tune for 2009 RPM Challenge.
Recorded: Feb 01, 2009
Details: Epiphone Les Paul (EBEGAD - capo II), Seymour Duncan Pickups, POD XT, Boss RC-20 Looper, EBow, Audacity, Sound Forge.
@another cultural landslide - yeah, I'm in for RPM, though I've only posted here so far. My RPM page: http://www.rpmchallenge.com/component/option,com_comprofiler/task,userProfile/user,5357/Itemid,296/
Turquoise is for memory to you about me.
Turquoise is as my eyes,
you will see heaven in them,
you will sink in them for ever...
This song is about love, about leaving.
Recording from live concert

Lovely tune - BTW, my entire rpm challenge ("Nothing Will Break Our Will To Be Free") is a memorial/dedication to Gaza.
Nice sounds - I need one of those things...
