where'd my comment go??? i compared you to a meeting of the Beatles and Trent Reznor. but with a genius of all your own.
i am zero percent surprised that you, off all people, could make so much fresh and awesome music in 24 hours.

something is so Beatles about this. i imagine Paul collaborating with Trent Reznor. i hope you don't mind being compared to other artists. other geniuses.
the thing i really really really really love about the chord progression is the last chord of each phrase in the chorus. how it goes THERE, instead of There.
this is the trailmix i want to bring with me through the circles of hell.

Also till can't believe that all of you pulled off this quality in 24 hrs. I practically crucified myself over a damn track less than a minute and half long!

Thank you to all who took the time to listen and comment. I'll soon post newer versions of each track (separately). I hope it was an enjoyable twenty-four minutes. cheers.

Very cool. Love the atmosphere and all the different layers of sounds.
Also, Thanks for the comment about my song and bringing up the drums. I'll try Track Therapy, too.

I'm disturbed by the love affair people have with institutionalized violence. We inadvertently endorse and legitimize war by saying nothing. Maybe it is because we would rather subdue ourselves with meaningless television shows and those neurotics social networking 'about me' quizzes than challenge the norms by which geopolitical power is executed worldwide, both economically and militaristically. What world did Enlightenment principles bestow us with?

MMi's Voices
http://alonetone.com/mmi/tracks/voices-3
MMi wrote the song. I programmed percussion, recorded tabla and vocals.
This is quite an old track that got abandoned because I didn't feel it was right or going anywhere.
But listening to it in iTunes this morning I thought it passed muster. I don't think it has enough variation to justify it's length but it's gently…
MODERN MEDICINE DJ-Set

Disclaimer…
Sometimes magic happens. Sometimes it even happens to me.
Open D tuning (low to high D A D G A D). Just a practice session where I had the guts to press record.
No drugs. Just beer with dinner. Maybe they put something in the creme brule…
so Airport Columns.. and Opened... I think these might be my two favorite MMI tunes at the moment. This one is magical. I imagine a caravan of nomads wandering through the Serengeti desert in search of a waterhole, but the electronic ambiances suggest that it's some kind of computer-generated dream... like I'm really laying in an isolation tank in someone's laboratory.
thanks for the comments Glibert! This one was thirty minutes from figuring out the guitar lick to bouncing the tracks. I'm most happy with this brainstorm out of all of these because it just came out when I began recording... more naturally than the others.
This one was originally slated for the RPM, but I never got to it. I put together this layout one day, and it hasn't progressed since then, but vocals are coming. Does anyone have Tom Waits' phone number?
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…

dooope.
Plenty of very good melodic and harmonic ideas. It must have been the perfect flow.

Also till can't believe that all of you pulled off this quality in 24 hrs. I practically crucified myself over a damn track less than a minute and half long!
I'll be looking forward to new versions of the individual tracks. I definitely had my favorites from within the 24 minutes
Thank you to all who took the time to listen and comment. I'll soon post newer versions of each track (separately). I hope it was an enjoyable twenty-four minutes. cheers.
I am speechless, just so cool!!! GREAT music, words, feel, and mix!!!!
Damn. You guys keep raising the bar for these 24 hour challenges. =)
Hi there... The comment you left made me curious ! And you've got really good stuff here ! Kinda NIN influence that I love !
Holy wow! I can't even fathom being this creative for an afternoon, let alone 24 straight hours!
So dream like... I am in a trance. Love it.
Very cool. Love the atmosphere and all the different layers of sounds. Also, Thanks for the comment about my song and bringing up the drums. I'll try Track Therapy, too.
Impressive. Most impressive.
At 20 minutes now and this is brilliant!
OOOH- 5 minutes in now and enjoying it. That mood shift right before the 5 minute mark is really cool!
fantastic, well worth all the sleep dep!
What can I say? This is beautiful and I think I shall listen to the whole thing all over again :)

maybe I'm a goob but yeah, I fav my collabs! :-) See what happens when you leave cookies out for Santaglu?
Former South American dictator turned clown? ha! Think I remember reading up on that..sandbagdido?
this is so amazing... just a brilliant montage.

droppin' bomb after bomb in this playlist.
yeah, this is a very affective piece. One of my MMI favorites...
beautiful vocals.. and @ 02:20 nice percussion! great cover.

hahhaha yeah!!! filthtone ftw!!!
this sounds utterly hopeless in the best of ways.
I think your 'desert gypsy' and my 'it's storming inside' need to meet up for a draw!
hands down... this is my favorite kjwise tune. bittersweet melody + female vox ftw!
really enjoy d&b-esque tunes with piano
just in case you both are clueless.. this is my favorite ACL tune to date. :-)
I'm still waiting for 7/8 done version :-)
oh yeah, why did I not fav' this one sooner?
woah I remember an earlier version of this one! This is gorgeous. The instrumentation is perfect.
if this were a crayon color it would be pensive purple.
poignant. Perfect title.
