Great, really creative and different from others "fusion sityle" music.
From a "tropical" guy (i´m from colombia) this is a great way to take the feeling and jo of the nature to all. the best for you and for this project. Ian
This song was made with only two short bird samples.
1) A wild screaming pija and 2)parrot. I made it last night after taking an antihistamine for all the chigger bites. paz.
From the 24 hour album. Began this one 47 minutes into the 24hr session. Listen to the full work here: http://alonetone.com/glu/tracks/glus-24
I haven't touched this track in over two months. What does it need?
Instrumentation: Bamboo flute…
I recorded four minutes of bird life in a bamboo patch during my last day in the Amazon.
I arranged the string section with single note samples of cellos performed by the Philharmonic Orchestra.
The first bioelectrophilia track since returning to the US. This song was made with only 2 saki monkey vocalizations. Note the beginning of the song which demonstrates how one vocalization was turned into part of the percussion.
Very nice song! I lived for five months in CICRA, I was studying the vocal
ecology of Hipocnemis subflava, the main bird that is singing in the background. Now, I'm very happy hearing your "biolectronic" song with the loudsong of the bird who I was researching. Thanks for you music!-Cheers, -venceja-

Glu guides you through an instructional song, revealing secrets along the way.
Instrumentation: Director's comments included! beat boxing, real swords, acoustic guitar, synthesizer, vocals, drum programming, tabla, and tambourine. My apologies…
Here's a partially-orchestrated preview of a song we're currently writing. Another big toe-tapper, this one, a lovely 6/4 piece, an ode to half-diminished sevenths, and minor ninths, wherever they may fall.
The title comes from a quote from…
Shaken, not stirred please.
Experimenting more with sandbags' Elysium. This time I used it to trigger elephant samples for part of the percussion section.
@ Licoresse.. yes most of what you think is gating exactly that. Some other chopping involved, but yeah, I experimented with gating for the first time! :-)
Lyrics:
Caged as a bird
free will is such a bitch
it's your responsibility to stay alive
pay the bills etc, etc
but how you enslave yourself
whether or not you enslave yourself
it's up to you
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! this draft is continuously replaced with newer versions. check back, please! (oh yeah…
This is my second experiment with "song form".
In this case I tried out probably the simplest form: "IABABCABE" where I - intro, A - verse, B - chorus, C - break, E - end.
Although I'm not sure if the verse is supposed to build into the…
I'm really digging all the layers and melodies. The rhythm section moves very nicely too. Loving where your music has been going over the past several months.

This one's for that little black and tan, Nahannah.
Lyrics:
I said nahnay nahnay nahnay hey
how'd you get so good
how'd you get so good
I said nahnay nahnay nahnay hey
how'd you get so good
how'd you get so good
first thing this…
It's the "do no harm" mix.
Because, theoretically you won't hear any difference between this and "technique 43".
Which is sad really, given how many hours I spent on it. Hours spent on the oh-so-exciting put-everything-in-Logic step…
Another one from back when I was tracking to actual tape. Was going to do a new version at some point, but decided I had lost interest. Sometimes there's no sense in recreating the past! Recorded probably the beginning of 2007
This is day 24 of my 24 day project. So that means it's over.
And if you're reading this on alonetone, this is lucky track number 100.
24 "songs" in 24 days. Really, the only requirement was to produce a minute of music each day.
I wish…
This song was made by two different piano samples (both
from Sudara):
1. One was recorded by Sudara (and gang?) axing away at a hapless old piano in New Mexico.
2. today, I convinced Sudara to noodle on the piano and send it over to me…
Wrangled in the string band to a play a pleasant little toe-tapper.
