Field recording from SE Peru. Came across this pissed off spider monkey and decided to record a few minutes of this vocal bout. I'm not sure what elicited such a vocal temperament, and of course, at the time, I was worried it was a large cat…

Sister Savage has a little star in this track!
Melody based on 'ah! vous dirai-je, Maman,' by Mozart.. the original composer. I think it's the first and second variation of 12, but that was like 15 years ago that I learned the piece so I have…
more tabla/club music. this one needs some melodic work, perhaps some more instrument layering, more chord progressions... anyhow, should be enjoyable enough for now.
@ noëlle-- thanks! Glad you are enjoying the tunage! If you are interested in more music made with animal samples, check out the bioelectrophilia playlist, made mostly from samples I recorded in the Peruvian Amazon last year. http://alonetone.com/glu/playlists/bioelectrophilia
Thanks for listening!

hahaha. no can do, Bethan.. it was designed to make it drop! :-) maybe I should write a disclaimer? I heard it also causes listeners to spill their drinks ;-)

I was at the Cincinnati Zoo a couple weekends ago and heard some irritated monkeys of my own. There were two bonnaroo monkeys that were just making noises back and forth. I wish I would have brought my field recorder!
This was a total experimental piece about just making a soundscape. I played instruments I don't really play, and put some thru different effects just to experiment. The Bushisms add some color to what would otherwise just be some noise. I…
Yay, the Lennon filter!! :)
Interesting how a song evolves from
one idea into another by some drastic
yet simple change like attenuating
the tempo.
Enjoying your mandolin playing!
I have a 100yr old heirloom here
but it needs some new tuning heads
and strings. I haven't used it in
a couple of years and I'm dying to
get it going again.
i should rename this track... there. it became the sound track to a short film i produced called "Ztileeb". a film i'd be happy to share with anyone should they wish to see it.
i've often used self recorded ambient sounds in my tracks. this…
Minor tweaks to the original upload: Better balancing of volume level, subtle changes to dynamics of the piano chords, and the addition of a very low-key counter-melody line on the third go-round of the main verse.
This song is nostalgic for me. I was in the jungle exactly one year ago... every night I would sit on the deck of the cabin and stare into the milky way.. Clear Sky; Bright Stars..
Lyrics:
No one told me to watch my back
I was thinking 'bout what I lack
What's a boy supposed to do
Life has got me blue
No one told me to watch my back
Now it seems I've gone off the track
It wasn't that hard to do
It caught me by…

WOW. How did I miss this???? I LOVE IT! Melody and Rhythm... the different movements... ugh! This is great! Awesome piece... it lingers in each motif for the perfect amount of time... Seriously, I would double fav if I could. Brilliant work.
A coop between me and another alonetoner and a Chill productions member, Captain Kirk. Original melodic idea and lyrics by me, guitar, piano, final mix, final composition and mastering by Kirk and the beautiful singing is done by his wife…
Comments on glu's stuff
Beautiful and brave. Your new ventures with vocals remind me a bit of RJD2's recent move in "The Third Hand"- except I think you have a better voice.
Oh yes nice one as usual well done.
awesome song glu. GREAT vocals..you should sing more often. Your profile says you are into anthropology..did you hear about that bones they found that predate lucy by 1 million years?
sounds like my wind chimes in the garden, great build as it progresses. love the breathy vocal.
Fave'd - mighty mighty nice... love this.
Missed this one- great stuff on a rainy morning!
The first clip in that KT mix is actually from a songs called "spider monkey". Thanks for all the kind words by the way!
frustrator! That's a good idea! I should try that out :-)
great beats and hats. i opened it in another window and i play them both at the same time, a quarter note apart.
OSSUM.
Brilliant.
I don't go to clubs much but this wit fit the bill perfectly. If I were a DJ I'd play it!

Relaxing groove- nice! You have anything special planned for upload number 300?
I just wanted to let you know that this song got me hooked on your musique. I love it all! Excellent excellent tunes! :D peace! -noëlle-
I dig this! You didn't disappoint either! I was waiting for a change up and got it at 0:50. Very nice!
This is pretty slick for left over junk! I wish my junk sounded like this!
