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.
i am the anaconda! aside from the mythological creature in the photo, there was no additional enhancement! Those mineral rich spring waters in Costa Rica are incredibly turquoise. They also have a very cathartic affect on the body.. euphoric...

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…
Barney! "Ears held hostage" wow! Thanks, my friend. Really digging your more recent stuff.. Cannot wait to hear the finished EP! Good luck, and hope you are enjoying the new gear!
We found a nice bathroom, and, moved by whimsy, decided to write this little shuffle for y'all. Took us about 15 minutes to write and record. It'd lose its spontaneity, otherwise, no?
Style:
Crosby-Stills-Nash-Young-esque Bathroom Folk
Instrumentation…
this is beautiful. What a lovely theme! I know what you mean about composing. When I sit down at a piano something magical comes over me... have to get one.
You know when you're creating something and it comes out exactly how you wanted it, and then it becomes you favorite? This one is still my favorite and has not been dethroned yet.
The song is all by me - words, vocals, bass, the "guitar…
yeah it is confusimicating! I have no clear answer for you! Most folks here respond by commenting back on their own tune just as you did, but it's not protocol by any means. cheers, and thanks for listening!
Brief musical sketch, to be transformed into a teary-eyed country weeper.
Instrumentation:
1 Dobro Resonator Guitar, played on both sides of a slide.
[If you give a page a dobro ...]
I got word this morning that my dog died sometime overnight, following his emergency surgery.
It's never easy to lose a pet, but I find it's especially difficult when they're young and you were expecting to spend many more good years with them…
Well, this is why I don't play drums. It's the best Moon I could pull off. I keep hammering the gtr riff over and over, but it's because it was so much fun to play. Its structure is a little too meandering in hindsight, but oh well. For whatever…

"meeting of the Beatles and Trent Reznor" ---and "this is the trailmix i want to bring with me through the circles of hell" OMG!! These are such flattering comments! Thank you! :-) and thank you for coming along for the ride through bittersweet purgatory; do not forget to buy a postcard!
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…
A track created for a character called Rainy, on the North walk (entitled "Life Is Monumental") of "Charm City Remix", a site-specific narrative by Kianga Ford.
NOT FINISHED. another draft. just putting it up here so that i kick myself in the pants to flesh it out and write verses and whatnot and redo everything. great!
I've been slacking, so here's something new finally.
I left flubbed notes in this one. I hate MIDI editing in Ableton Live.
I often think of ending this affair and going back to my sweetheart, Logic.
agree with kirk.. love how it 'falls into place' --and I'm a sucker for piano. I agree that Live's midi editor leaves much to be desired; I thought v8 would have at least made the grid easier on the eyes. btw, thanks for listening to the 24h .. you should do it sometime; loads of fun and insanity.

@ kirk, look forward to finding out which ones are your faves! Thanks again for listening... I'll try to get these individual tracks up soon, once I attempt recovery ;-)
NOT FINISHED. shining up old songs. this one is headed in this direction. if i put it up on here, i have to finish it.
love,

Comments on glu's stuff
I'm on my fifth coffee of the day, so I know where this one is coming f-f-f-f-f-f-f-from. N-n-n-n-nice work D-D-Don G.
Stunning.
I need this like I need air. such exceptionalness.
Nice one good stuff
This is WONDERFUL! GREAT work as usual! And...YES we're working! w;-)
if this were a crayon color it would be pensive purple.
no plans. just discovered it. I have no idea what to do... but I'm glad I found it! I really like the way you characterized the feel of the tune.
Oooh- Lovely dark ambient quality
Thanks for listening indeed. I appreciate the encouraging word on mi stuff-- You certainly have some beauties here. : ) : ) : ))))))
actually this one was inspired by honey nut cheerios, and it will likely never see the light of day. I need to eat breakfast more frequently.
that was me.. not some creepy guest haha

Nice Textures...Cheers Glu!
..BEAUTIFUL -you texturemeister, you.
Cyborg jazz indeed- very cool
Nice one Glu I Love a good Storm
Tiger Lovin' or sad clown cowboy. Either way would make for provocative lyrics... or i can write about how I'm about to be late for class. gah!
now i'm getting the picture of a sad cowboy clown riding his horse into a storm... makeup dripping off the face... sandbags.. i think you are onto something.
now there's a idea for lyrics.
