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?

Is it cool to favourite collabs you're involved in?
Anyway, glu did all the heavy lifting here. It's like Santa Claus visited last night and left the best presents at my house!

and you didn't even have to spend the night to get it.
another one from the morning sessions...
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.
A morning storm recorded in the courtyard and a musical motif written in the evening. combined time working-- 45 minutes, interrupted by a phone call from the parents to see if I was still alive.
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…
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.
Okay I need to say a few things. Please read before listening!
I did not do the 24 hour challenge but I did try and hang around in the chatroom as much as possible with Glu, SisterS, and ChrisM while they battled through it.
At about midnight…
Just one of those passing moods. Just finished today - august 2 2009. I resisted the temptation to try to develop it any further and just let it be what it is

One of four tracks I did for the August 2009 24 hour challenge. This was the last track I did, and it shows.
I was pretty tired after finishing 3am chill, and had to mess round for ages mangling loops and trying out different things before…
the tempo changes are totally melting my sleep-deprived brain..seriously.. !!! It's making me fall asleep... aptly named tune there!! You captured it perfectly. congrats again.. great job!

I'd wanted to play around with Guitar Rig 3 since getting it at the weekend. The guitars are ableton loops mangled with guitar…

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…
Honestly I have no idea where this came from or how.
I was messing with Omnisphere patches and came across a lovely, flutey, breathy sound that put me in mind of the scenes inside the monolith at the end of 2001. I setup a Rytme pattern to…
oh June Bug! forgot about this one, Kirk. You're digging back 4-5 years! That flanger sound is a didgeridoo btw, pitch. The lead 'synth' part is a really short (looped) sample of a mandolin, filtered, and chromatically mapped out for playing. I forget all the other sounds. Thanks for listening to the old classics! :-)
I composed the music of this song specially for one of the soloists of my "Bulgarian Sample Voices" project, which will available soon as Apple Loops, EXS24, Kontakt etc...Here I use my new tool "RMX POWER CONTROL " More info will be published…
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 song, love the lyrics. Because you are asking for advice, I recommend bringing out the percussion to compliment that rich bass. I also think a little percussive variation would help the track move more fluidly. Looking forward to the final mix. Cheers!
Comments on glu's stuff
Wow- is this the reason for the latest avatar?
Very cool dig the voices
woah, hey jef..you there too, eh?
strangely mirrors my current emotional landscape.
This reminds me of The Gathering at their most mellow, albeit a little more electronicky.
This is haunting. I think you blend the music, voice, and percussion together perfectly.
Dreamy :)
Should have know who this was before I walked in here from the shop. This is most excellent!

maybe I'm a goob but yeah, I fav my collabs! :-) See what happens when you leave cookies out for Santaglu?
I like this. Short and sweet.

Great collaboration! Very spacious
Turning Coffee into a song, great! I love coffee and this song. I'm glad it's not just a recording of you making the stuff. :)
Bethan's right. Great track.

great capture of the storm and appropriate muse for the occasion.
lush and beautiful! 30 min to upload? Fantastic!
this is sweet! i'd like to see it as a soundtrack to a video. by the way, i love your photography/photoshop/whatever!
Glad you found this one!

exactly captures the mood I'm in today.
awesome.
what are YOU doing up this hour? doing some kind of a happy dance I imagine? ;-)

still hiding.
nice! a new Persona tune! love it when the percussion comes in.
