"Move your body to the drumbeat of war..."
I will update with lyrics later, this song is a work in progress but I wanted to get it online before I start hating it. Did you really think I would end the year without a political song? Jingo Bells…
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!
thanks for the thoughtful comment! I'm including this one in my next rhythmically delicious playlist of alonetone artists. I always enjoy your music of dancing samples of instrument performances
A moody solo acoustic thing that I came up with playing in a long forgotten tuning. Just got a new Zoom H4N, so this was recorded in my shop sitting at my reedmaking bench may 12 2009

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…
This is my 12 hour song (written, recorded, mixed, mastered) ... I pined away all day at it while a storm kept me company.
instrumentation:
a man lost his house and sold me his fretless bass for next to nothing. a family friend gave me…
fixed the bass (or corrected SOME of the problems with it) and re-uploaded... it was getting a little too wobbly at times... Thanks for all the comments! You lot keep me inspired to post stuff. <3
This is part of a new body of work, centered more on guitar than synth, yet treating the guitar as I do the synth. This is still a work in progress, and I am open to input.
This is definitely an ambient piece, treating sound as a sculpture more…
wow really digging your stuff. You and I seem to be attracted to some of the same instrumentation! Hope to see more stuff of yours on here in the future!
when i feel like i have something worth saying i suppose. or when someone else does ;)
I've been working on some lyrics, but nothing 'serious' has been written. just ideas at this point.
Comments on glu's stuff
What the good Sister said!
It's easy to miss treasures like this in your huge catalog. Great stuff!
Yep! we can see out again, now! This is definitely an up and at 'em track :~D
Good! I'll listen to this and then go and mow the grass!
thanks moschell! you hit the nail on the head!
This makes me want to do something. Not sure what at the moment. Just something. And I want to do it now.
you have been to Peru!
like I said before... you got such a great ideas, glu! loved it.
i love this, love the electric guitar with the tambourine.
this is a very sweaty song.
Oh, I'm so doing one of these.
Cool glu nice one

This stuff is really cool sounding but I think Bernie Krause originated a similar genre back in the 80's
This is gorgeous!
Excellent. You nailed it!
Why was this not thought of before? Great and Yeah- what yelyah said- great production
Hooray we have a theme! I continue to be amazed at your production skills.
I do feel at home here, thank you GLU!
YES!!!!!!

and please come back to Alonetone to upload more stuff! Really enjoying this one
kicked the computer chair a few meters away.. shaking my loot, my pirate treasure... to this one!
oooh like the beat here! nice! the tonework is really cool too. like the electric piano that comes in at around 1 minute
kind of reminds me a little of something off Tool's Opiate. Nice.
love the beat on this one
sounds like you are having fun with the R3! Nice patchwork.
oh, and did I forgot to say how lovely this song is? Really nice work.
I knew this was recorded in the shop because I can feel the spirit of craft in the melody, if that makes any sense. You must make real magic there.
reminds me slightly of The Doors... "this is the end... my only friend, the end" :) nice guitar work! really digging the rhythms too!
woah-- sounds like Depeche Mode!

digging the library! nice cross cut of styles!
this is my go-to song for never-ending inspiration.
lovely. I share the sentiment.

nice! I take stabs at club music, but I get impatient after about 3 minutes or so. This grooves nicely for the entire 9! cheers
