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…
Just a spontaneous (and very rough) two hour tune. Written and recorded yesterday, edited and mixed today. I might as well get it uploaded now because I'll be spending the next two weeks preparing to move across the country.

Glu and Sister Savage bring you these remixes!

I added melodies to the initial track and then Sister Savage
rerecorded the vocals to match the new melody.
Written, recorded, and mixed in 24 hours. August 01-02, 2009, from 6am to 6am.
Instrumentation: Two acoustic guitars, electric guitar (picked and bowed), fretless bass, about 7 different flutes, two tabla drums, rattles, tambourine, didgeridoo…
Just working out some rhythms. Toucans come in at about 1 minute.. wish I could get the sound onto vinyl for some proper scratching. I used Sandbags' awesome generative sequencer Elysium for some of the ambient and lower pitched toucans. The lead…
Shaken, not stirred please.
Experimenting more with sandbags' Elysium. This time I used it to trigger elephant samples for part of the percussion section.

This one is pure pop. Voice pitched 1/2 step up.

seems you have an affinity for wildlife. I have done a few songs with that in mind. One I mixed; whale songs, monks, the sounds from a sonogram of the womb, sounds that planets make, birds. The weird thing is..when you play some of them faster or slower..they sound like the others.
Shaken, not stirred please.

This song was made by two different piano samples (both
from Sudara):
1. One was recorded by Sudara (and gang?) axing away at a hapless old piano in New Mexico.
2. today, I convinced Sudara to noodle on the piano and send it over to me…
Shaken, not stirred please.

24 hours of music making for 2008.
Yup. This is a "Gaiman variation" which means that I stopped at 24 hours and this is what I've got. Not 24 min, but it is a "Noble Failure"
You can see my 2007 album [here](http://alonetone.com/sudara…
an exposition,traditional of the raga,bilaskani todi,transformed into a slightly ,dark ambient piece of music,exploring musical landscapes,with a scenario,as if for film music,which my pieces normally are.
I do three things after waking up these days: I shower. I make coffee. I play this song and drink my coffee.
Nothing complicated. Nothing fancy. Just some basic fingerpicking to test my motor skills and bring some aural sunshine into my day.
excerpts from:
great gig in the guy, honey, russ and them, any colour you hike, drain bemage, elypse
a dream came true for 4 people. last friday (17th of october) we made our first complete run through "the dark side" during rehearsal.

not perfect but good enough to do a 'best of'. for us it's been a magic moment…
Even though I wasn't submitting myself to the 24 hour torture, I couldn't let the weekend pass without posting at least something...
Another Elysium powered track.
And no, that's not really a sample of Darth Vader. Wouldn't want Lucas…
I'm really digging these. Planning on expanding them at all? extending length?.... separating them? I really like the melody at 14:00. what a mood in that one. Why can I only heart something once on here!?
don't be so hard on yourself. Featuring your home-brewed software deserves mad props! I like this track, and I look forward to your release of Elysium. Good work!
A masterpiece indeed. I am wowed, but not surprised. Your work is always amazing. A favorite of many. Are you planning on exploring any of these ideas more? You could easily turn this into an hour long album. Each piece is so well defined and poignant. kudos.
