I got tired of playing by the rules. (The album concept was using only portable instruments which I could carry in one trip.)
This track uses every functional piece of gear I own at least once. In no particular order . . . TR-606, TB-303…
Late-stage demo of a Kraftwerk tribute upon which I'm currently working. Most of the tracks are solid at this point. See the second mix to hear what 12 hours of mixing and production did to it.
So I am searching for Kraftwerk inspired tunes and hit play, not looking at the artist,... player launches,.. I KNOW THIS! What a pleasant surprise 😀. Your friend Binary R ❤️
Madame Fortune seems to enjoy spinning that wheel of hers. It's tough to keep up sometimes. As Gilda always used to say, "it's always something."
Executed entirely upon the Korg DW-6000 and Yamaha CS1x.
I like here how certain elements of the track seem to weave in and out of sync with the main tempo of the song. It gives the track this precarious balance, like somebody standing still while riding on a unicycle.
Why is it that when I want to start over and listen to this track from the beginning that it always starts from where I left off, even if I go listen to another track, even another album, this makes no sense. Araghhh!! grp
You sound like Bowie in the beginning of this track. This is very interesting listening while playing games. Did you crack your voice on purpose??? love, grp
I'm so confused, but I just woke up but I'm only hearing 15 syllables here, what am I missing, is this a different form. This is G here, if you hadn't guessed.
I'm always amazed by the sounds you artists can create. Great transition into the body of the song. Are lyrics soon to follow? (Not that it needs them... This is beautifully arranged)
The very beginning of an idea for a Philip Glass tribute. If things continued along in this manner to their predictable end, Mr. Glass could very well sue me. Not to worry. I have plans to take it in a different direction. Stay tuned throughout…
This is the first time in nearly seven yrs that I've listened to Evan and Elle again. I actually listened to all of the tracks. I was surprised that I enjoyed them more than ever. I think I was angry (more than I could admit or be aware of, HA) 7 yrs ago I think, in particular, the idea of taking an entire month to create this album was blowing my mind and annoying me (but I think I was VERY well behaved and considerate regardless) especially considering everything else that was happening in our lives. So a funny observation I have is that I thought I was the Evan of your life but obviously I was the Elle since that's the female, and I AM known as some version of elle in other places around the world of the web. And just for fun I'm not making this a private comment so if anyone else reads it they can wonder. I suppose you can make it private. I have NO clue!
Have been listening all day,.. great while working. Excellent track and looking forward to hearing the rest of the CD when when it's done at the end of the month. Thank you posting!
I had envisioned the title referring to a suicide; however I suppose it could be anything attempted without success. In case you've not sussed it out yet, our friend Elle is not a happy camper.
Some day I'll get around to noting all of the…
Well then, this is a surprise! Thanks to all who have listened & thanks for reading this comment. I must say that this (sigh) is not my favorite track on this album. Give http://alonetone.com/fallingupart/tracks/angry-angel a whirl, or perhaps http://alonetone.com/fallingupart/tracks/cloud-watching or http://alonetone.com/fallingupart/tracks/sylvan-repose
Thanks again!
@Tess: That's what I told my muse. I'm not sure WHAT she was smoking. The poetry and my manner of delivery remind me of Shel Silverstein. ;) Listen carefully for the Derps at the end of the track. LOL.
Wow, thanks very much. Quite gracious of you. I was a little insecure about it myself (not the composition which I think is solid, but the performance). I'd have spent six more months getting the vocals just so on this album. But then, paradoxically, some of them came out perfect on the first take. (Not this track!) But there I go again, admitting my own faults. Heh heh.
@Tess: It's a "flute-like" sound, isn't it? But it's actually a virtual synth app from Akai on the iPod Touch. Everything on this entire project except the vocals is the Akai Synthstation app. :)
@Kavin: Thanks for listening. I love the synth engine for the Akai SS25. I wish they'd work the bugs out of the sequencer! (Yep, it's buggy, but that didn't stop me from doing an entire album with it.)
Well as you've come to know Reg wears his heart on his sleeve, the new woman who was going to be the one has gone. He's decided to go for a walk in the park to clear his head , he's sad oh! he is sad, sad, sad, .............
This one, i heard…
Hey, Reg, you're on the currently kickin' ass list! #3, man. Nice. I like the creepy deeply delayed backing vocals . . . like a recurring bad dream. If this is autobiographical, hang in there: the next "the one" may be just around the corner.
A cover of the Cure's minimalist alt-rock classic, an old favorite of mine.

If Ennio Morricone and Dr. Dre smoked a buttload of crack and decided to collaborate, except that one of them thought he was writing a soundtrack for the Godfather Part 11, and the other for Phantom of the Opera, Part 2, The Unwanted Sequel…
Hey, nice jorb. I like the Minimoogish bass (that ain't the real thang is it?) and the manner in which the guitar/keys melody meanders about above it. Going back for a second listen! :)
This is an exert from the Two regs Radio program on C.U.N.T. fm . The Regs are in the middle of re-write of their new book and this exert and others like it are hoped to be used as background for the Audio book. You can hear a lot more from the…
OMG, I had a Keith Landry track playing in a window behind this at the same time. Oops. That was REALLY strange. OMG, again! Oh, shit, this is hilarious! I have a few former bosses I think you're singing about here. How'd you know?
Hey, check out another cultural landslide's album from this year. Funny shit. But fast (or d/l it)--they are only leaving it up for 45 days.
Nice recasting of the classic. Have you heard of Luther Wright & the Wrongs? They have a complete country & bluegrass cover of PF's The Wall album. Pretty crazy stuff.
Did the world really need a cheesy, spaghetti western version of this classic Eagles song? I'm not sure. Did I make one anyway? Yes. Yes, I did. By the way the painting is "Villa Diablo" by Downe Burns.

Another track done for "THE RPM CHALLENGE".
I like the favor of this one,it's really different from the stuff I'v done before. It's also the "bed" for another tune that will be up later.
"IN THE SKY".
Dang! Damned fine job. I like it. :) Did you do the Indian raga scat (I don't recall what that "drum language" singing is actually called!) as a looping sample or is this track built in something like ACID?

I like this a lot, and I love the concept.

@G-Guest: A reply hefted into the past by six years: Just wait until you reach track 80.
Ah Someone else who is fed up of the usual mainstream dross. Hope you find what you are looking for.

I like the melodic progressions of this. The colorful 'Arpy' synthesizers have an Ed Van Fleet feel to them.
I wonder who SHE is? I can think of a couple ppl, only one is not me...
OK I get it, just refresh the entire browser tab.

I wish I could understand the first couple lines of this.
FAR OUT MAN!!!
That last comment was me, by the way.

This should definitely be grown further

Hi, this is great like all the influences (kraftwerk, vangelis, Jarre + Tangerine Dream) without actually sounding like any of them. Fantastic piece!!

Fun Moogin'.
I don't understand a single word, but I like it. o.O
Conventionality belongs to yesterday, indeed. ;) Nice cover.

New version, for all you fans of really bad lounge.
Nice acoustic work. :)

Totally demented. I love it.

Yummy retro sound on the drums. Is it samples or a dedicated box? If the later, what is it?
Nifty.
