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.
A mashup of “Bodyrox - Yeah yeah (Ramirez remix)” and “Bucky Done Gun - M.I.A.”
Part of “The big crash of '07” album. Which is a collection of mostly prototypes of songs that are lost because of a harddrive failure. C'est la vie.
I'm completely against war and do not buy into the idea that it's for 'protection' but this track is dope and I'm glad you decided to upload more tunes here!
Si me recuerdas debe ser que hay algo en ti.
Puede ser tal vez, que el destino es real
y une nuestras vidas.
Siento que hay algo en mí, esperándote
desde siempre, por mil vidas hasta que te encontré.
Viajaré otra vez sobre cerros y mar…
woah, different sound than most other cosmic microwave stuff! Really digging the more melodically based approach to these electronically crafted tracks. Excited to see what else comes out of this ongoing collab. Cheers!
Something completely different- Uilleann pipes(Irish bagpipes) and synth. I wrote this tune over 20 years ago in the style of traditional Irish slow airs. It was recorded way back in 1991 for an album that's been out of print for over 15 years…
WOAH! I get entranced by this kind of sound. It reminds me of the sensation I get with the didgeridoo. Monotonal foundation... it evokes a meditative state. Everything surrounding me can be moving rapidly but this sound slows down that internal clock.. ephemeral moments become everlasting... It moves melodically exactly when in needs to, and your pipe performance is just leaves me in awe. Thanks for uploading this amazing tune.
This is a live recording of a set I did with guitarist Mike Levine on a University of New Hampshire radio show. This is one of the 'songs' we did. It is a 5-tune Irish fiddle set that was previously done by the great Irish fiddle player Martin…
A late night meditation.
Here's the process:
Started just auditioning sounds in my Live library. When I do this, I play some random chords or two note intervals; often not looking at my hands or the keyboard. That's the spark. Here I started…
This is another track resulting from a project in my digital music class at Oasis Charter Middle School (Spring 2007). Using a common pool of objects, my newborn daughter's baby instruments, I asked the students to create episodic sound illustrations…
Saw an add on TV for something called "Drag Me To Hell". Dunno what it is with horror films, but apparently scary music is on my mind. Thanks for helping exorcise it.
The guitar part, btw, is e-bow plus slide so any tonality is an accident.
I would be wigged if I listened to this alone at night... on headphone, especially while slightly intoxicated.... the evil ebow in this = machines screaming in agony. I Love the rhythmic bleeps and bloops that carry the song along.
This is a total remake of an earlier posting.

In the lyrics, I was trying to capture a sense in which there is something else beyond -
something which draws me as it were homeward. A son…

For my friend and coworker, because he certainly deserves it.
This song is friends with [song for themcgruff](http://alonetone.com/sudara/tracks/song-for-themcgruff)

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!

wow.. the 10 year song is finally done.. methinks a success!
wow, really nice! an indirect collab with pops.
really enjoying this playful track. Nice beat!
btw.. I forgot to actually comment on how smooth your flow is lyrically... really nice rhymes.. good to see some more hip hop on alonetone!

love the mood in this one.
que linda amigo! me la encanta.. really nice all the way around.
woah, commenting on my own tune is weird, but I totally forgot about this track from back in the day. Totally different glu era

enjoying this one of yours childhoodsend. all these familial collabs inspires!
yeah, definitely edgy stuff here. nice tunes!
love it.
mmi you are the alonetone ambient connoisseur
love it! Wish I had a digital music class in middle school!

nice song! I could listen to bossa nova all day, and the tinge of blues works very well. All these parent/offspring collaborations make me jealous!!!
ghost in the machine! love it!
oh and how could i forget? songs for business colleagues ftw!
