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?

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!
lyrics:
i got a hot date
and you know i don't wanna be late
i need a ride
to the bowling alley
get ready cuz here i come
put my new skirt on
chewing peppermint gum
did my eyebrows fresh
white musk on my neck
part my hair to the right
cuz its…
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…
Lyrics:
I don't know what you want
when you treat me that way
I can't help being turned on
Is that what you want
Just to see what I would do
To see if I'm in love with you
I'm trying so hard
to sit here and ignore
the way that you…
This reminds me of an old-school Beck track. If you don't like Beck please don't take offense, it's a compliment! Some of my favorite Beck stuff was from the Mellow Gold era.

Still need a ride to the bowling alley? Can you make an extended version of this track so I can keep listening to it without having to go back to the computer to press play again? :)
nice ambient music. I'm fascinated by the randomness... iare these random notes played by you or randomly triggered through some modulation software? Either way, great stuff.
*Electronic rock. Sounds like* **_IAMX_** *and* **_Depeche Mode_**
This is much better than it’s ever been before
Much more real
More rich
More speed
More more
I feel like I could go forever and it only hurts when I stop
This is much…
This album rocks! I was curious after discovering we had both named our albums the same title... good stuff. Reminds me of DM for sure! Very well produced songs.
*Electronic rock with jungle/drum-and-bass influence*
I've never really felt that I was ever good enough
But even I can be improved if I just stay tough
My teeth are metal reinforced
My eyes are plastic lens
And daemons run inside my head…
love the bass... love the claps, taps...wow.. I am really impressed with this album so far. this stuff inspires! so fluid... and not the least bit banal for a 12 minute track... it's constantly moving. you guys pulled it off.. the violins at 05:30 are so awesome. I hear a bit of dissonance in there too. Shit, I might as well be reviewing your album with these lengthy comment chapters. good stuff... You guys really made something special.
Lyrics:
I'm not sleeping
I'm staring at the ceiling
My mind's a thousand miles away
I'm finding faces in the shapes
of plaster that was scraped on the ceiling
Killing time is not so bad
but when you're trapped inside your head…
Love this track from start to end. I really like the drums/ambient sounds/bass/ at around 3:50. A very nice 'series of demos;' I look forward to hearing more.
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…
Lyrics:
Pass me a handle of that old time tennessee
It's been a while since I've seen the devil
It's a common mistake to think that I'm a sweet and gentle soul
but give me a chance to change your mind
Cause you have never seen me like…
Based on the first lines of a Hindu spiritual song I've had stuck in my head for years, this song was included on the RPM 08 world music category compilation. World music--crazy! Wouldn't have expected that, but I'm honored that it was nominated…
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!

awesome. the only word that fits.

anytime you want to make some "Oh My Gluness" let me know! It would be an honor!
this is great for studying! Love the generated stuff. AI ftw!
wow this is silky smooth! love the chord progressions.

f**K! this is a hit! You guys really nailed the current sentiment. what an important song. The American dream...it's an anachronism. wake up America!
