The psyche is a weird place, I'll just talk about it musically.
The piece begins with the sounds of Sudara's autoharp, the weeping woodwind sounds of the clarinetist from Megafauna Lacrymosa , and a low kick-like percussive sound, which is…
Episode One:
Sandbags allowed me to use his mad rhythms- see here for an explanation: http://alonetone.com/sandbags/tracks/my-name-is-harry-palmer Sudara lent me some samples of him playing chords from his new autoharp, an ebow against piano…

I was going to do the RPM thing...then I had to move. I think I remember coming across your profile there...so many ppl, can't be sure. RPM is a good platform for later use..going back and adding to the ones you like. I like to work on a song for years..then add to it as my skills progress. Makes it more interesting..sometimes almost as its more than one person composing it.
wish the pads on my sax were in good shape...be nice to add to this with it. It's crying for a sax. good vocals..lead and backing. Did you do the drums or samples? I have to use samples all the time...I try to phatten them up with the drums on my keys.
I've been working on this one little by little; now I'm at a point where I do not feel like revisiting the feeling. Moves from 3/4 to 4/4, or so I think.. kind of like a 7/4 time sig but not really. typical glu instrumentation, etc.
Everyone…
This one's for that little black and tan, Nahannah.

Sudara mentioned yesterday that the new Logic had super cool guitar stuff. This is me checking it out.
Two guitar tracks, using just the double phaser, simple amp model and an insane space designer preset.
Used one of the mastering presets…
Several years ago I had a short lived duo with an oboe and English horn player named Nat. This is a demo from that period. It's an old old chord progression of mine that never really had a melody and Nat improvised this melody in the studio to…
Experimenting with my piano/keyboard skillz and a first attempt at record clapping. Needs a good go over with some quality drums and some better arranging. Everything sounds very "synthy" on account of I don't have any quality VSTi at the moment.
I spent the day skrewing around with this Roumanian Minor scale again. I am really testing layered drums on this one, Toms mostly.
There's a lot happening. Acoustic, Strat, Bass, 4 Juno tracks, and all kinds of percussion.
Only a two chord change…

Left over audio from "How to Glu"
This one is about power and resistence.. which I find to be quite sexy when I think about it.
Instrumentation: distorted and clean acoustic guitar, swords, tabla, synth, drum programming, clapping, vocals.
@ ic42.. I think the hopes of change after a revolution fades out.. so in a way it's kind of a poetic ending.. maybe not though.. maybe it needs to go out with an explosion.. will think about it. Thanks for the comments.. and that goes for all of you! Really appreciate it!
A track created for a character called Rainy, on the North walk (entitled "Life Is Monumental") of "Charm City Remix", a site-specific narrative by Kianga Ford.
Soundtrack for the video version of a shadow puppet show ("Awake", below, was an excerpt/prototype for this piece). A link to the YouTube video of the show is below!
I told the [good Sister](http://alonetone.com/sistersavage) that I wanted to try using vocals in a track and she offered to do me some abstract, stylized, vocals that I could play with and this little number is the result.
Working with wet (pre…
Well now, this is actually a very old track, made back in March '09 and not that long after I started learning piano.
I was learning a very simple 12-bar blues piece and getting bored with the piano sound I started messing about with the Logic…
Comments on glu's stuff
agree with the lovely beth there. really is gorgeous
Not junk, always ready for your percussion - love the glu touch!
That's a great title for a song! I think I'm jealous of that one! Nice mix and lovely haunting sounds. Really great slow groove.
My new favorite!!!
fuck yea!
Nice one man!
This sounds great...bass line is cool...I can hear arpegios..real ones..not from an arpegiator.

good bye alonetone! I'll be gone for a few days.. until getting new interwebz connection! Ciao for now...
Inspiring. If you don't finish it, I might :-)
A gem made more precious by the loss.
I'm hearing lyrics along with it's captive melodic voice
this is truly beautiful
Wicked tune dem. Nice and full sound.
Nice Noodling!
Digging this man, chilled and heavy at the same time!!!! New tracks up as well!
I hope you develop this more at some point- really nice!
Just Lovely!
I wish my unfinished crap sounded this good. Love those little touches of classical guitar toward the end

What a lush sound! More of this please. It's the perfect soundtrack to my rainy day.
Thanks for digging this up Captain, it's a very nice piece.
Just lovely!
Love it.. especially that bass! I want the track to be twice as long, but I'll take what I can get! nice work.
damn fine wall of sound!
hahaha I'll start slapping that virtual sticker all over my stuff! Love it!
everything is cool, mate. don't fall off the wagon. be my inspiration!

really liking this one. perfect mood you've captured there.

Amazing. and I haven't even made it to the video yet.

As I said in Campfire chat, you have successfully reproduced aural hallucinations, my friend!
OMG hahahaha
gorgeous!!!! WOW!
Lalo, it would be an honor!! I'll start searching through your extensive catalog soon! So many rich sounds.. so many choices. :-)
damn Lalo, this is awesome!
