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.

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…

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.

@ Licoresse.. yes most of what you think is gating exactly that. Some other chopping involved, but yeah, I experimented with gating for the first time! :-)

The song was constructed around a field recording of Lacandon men paddling across the lake in Métzabok, Chiapas (Southern Mexico). The Lacandon speak "Hach T'an," which is a Mayan dialect-- this is the language you hear in the track. Unfortunately…

This is a new song that started as a guitar pick, then got some words. I finally recorded this. It has 3 parts. Nylon guitar, Electric and voice. This is part of the "human racing" series I am working on.
Matter is surprising
Not what…
I'm almost totally happy with this song except it is for the mix. I would appreciate any comments on how to improve it. Is too bassy and the mix has a big blip in the beginning where it gets louder for a second. I know I can fix some of that with…
nice track.. love the lyrics! Because you are looking for comments to improve your mix... you could also try the alonetone forum section "track therapy" -- it's a little sleepy but maybe more folks will start posting if more start using it.

I recommend doing something with the percussion to compliment that nice bass; drums sit too low in the mix- bring them out... and they could use some variation to keep the track moving/building. Nice song idea, I look forward to hearing the final mix. cheers!
Fiddling around with an open G tuning and I found the chord that 'Prodigal Son' is based on (a Robert Wilkins tune from the 30s made famous by the Stones) so I had a play around with it, stopped for dinner and came back and wrote the lyrics…
New stuff has been slow in coming for me lately, but I found this lurking on my hard drive from a while back. Frankly don't remember how I did it except that it was all live to 2 tracks and at one point one of my synth patches glitched out on…
This is my first recording and not great quality. I have ordered a better quality microphone, just waiting for it to arrive. Quality aside, I was hoping for some constructive critcism/comments on my version of this song.
yeah, it was a quixotic ambition I had about a year ago, before I fully admitted to myself that everything has been done before. Nevertheless, thanks for listening, and I hope you enjoyed it!
yo Nitro!!! Yer fix is coming. about 5 hot cakes... one just uploaded.. but the best is soon to come.. early next week. I kidnapped a Peruvian until Sunday; you should come meet him! After I hand him over to the proper authorities I will finish these tunes. You will love them....

Comments on glu's stuff
nice radiohead-like chord-procession, and i like the electronic creatures beeping away; it sweeps nicely, and i can understand the title very well.
Oh yeah this is great man you do some cool sounds
Great tune, great sound. Good luck (again) on the move.
I was living on the bass strings
The first 30sec sold me %100.
Awesome toucans! Love that lead melody
Very cool sounds
Sounds like a road trip tune. Good luck with the move- it's always a pain in the rear. Nice tune man!
@ Licoresse.. yes most of what you think is gating exactly that. Some other chopping involved, but yeah, I experimented with gating for the first time! :-)
Interesting gating, it is gating?
Great atmosphere!
Wow dig it mate tops
Nice one cool sounds
Lovely - that's a great sample to play with. grabbing a download thank you.
intensley interesting
lots cool stuff u got going on here.....and yea..the cherokee indian stomp dance is awesome.
Dunno why but this one is special.
I think it needs some elephant :-) Awesome nonetheless.
Oh this is good, very good. Really hoppingly glitchy. Love it.
Lovely and weird, and that's before the Toucans come in!

¡magnífico! what a powerful piece
thanks moschell! you hit the nail on the head!
kirk-- keep excavating that hard drive.. this one is lovely!
just perfect. lovely voice. welcome!!!
i mean light.. as in happy and slightly melancholy. I'm serious about those evolving layers of sound... awesome.
it dances between light and slightly melancholy thanks to the interesting progression. Moving textures ftw!
yeah, it was a quixotic ambition I had about a year ago, before I fully admitted to myself that everything has been done before. Nevertheless, thanks for listening, and I hope you enjoyed it!
really enjoyed the lyrics! nice one Moschell!
This is awesome!
Love it! Nice no budget choir!
