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.

sandbags, it looks like we both have the hero complex. I empathize, it's a terrible self-inflicted typecast to put on oneself, but almost irresistible to the psyche to want to be the rugged cowboy hero archetype. Damn you Jung! It cooled off here in Texas after the storm, so we had a little sub 39C air blow in yesterday.

I wrote this short woodwind motif at the time MJ died yesterday. The King played a major influence on some of my more dance-oriented music, so this is my ode to the king.
From today's one hour session:
acoustic guitar, fretless electric bass, tabla, tambourine, and the synthesque sound is the electric guitar played with a violin bow
Unlike a lot of instrumental music I hear, this sounds very cathartic. It sounds like it's tapping into something, and channeling it out in the form of music. It held my attention for the full seven minutes..
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
plus some croc boots would be real pimp

Sounds like film music, reminiscent of a western. Right now I'd like to be the hero striding into that storm because it is too HOT!
oh yes, you move, you guuuuuv
highlarious --nice -yess
this one's going places can't wait to find out where...
Scary good stuff!
Really enjoying this playlist , but this one especially kills me!!
Lovely stuff!!
Wow this is great what a journey
great atmosphere, beautiful mixture of notes and sounds. The drums are fantastic.
yummy! Mmm so full sounding! great recording!
woaw. Varese, Ligeti, glu. A soundtrack for dreams.
Oh Yeah- the various mood shifts are really cool! Fav'd
woah, multiple movements, all very cool, is that a subtle steel drum I hear?
yeah, she's all over that beat in the second verse.
why yes, it is so embarrassing that I'd rather not post the lyrics in public.
That was me. -Sister Savagery.
This is actually quite filthy, isn't it?

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

one of my all time favorite Pink Floyd songs... what a great cover! Nice work!
tortured by advanced math... poor fella..love all the tempo and time sig changes
