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..
First draft.
Dedicated to my mother on her birthday.
In the outro: Trombone, Horns, Clarinets, Mouthpiece buzz by Andy Hentz (arrsuarez) and organic drum related sounds by Glu.
this vocal arrangement only made the cutting room floor. full instrumentalized version forthcoming. i just wanted this arrangement its own chance at life!
My evening challenge: compose and record a piece in an evening. Song titles will reflect the time of day when the day's light slips into the darkness of night.
Took sandbags' [Rytme Shifter 1](http://alonetone.com/sandbags/tracks/rytme-shifter-1) and added my special brand of guitar incompetence.
I bought myself an E-Bow this week and this track was just perfect for playing around. After a day of wankery…
Glu and Sister Savage bring you these remixes!
Original track by Sister Savage:
http://alonetone.com/sistersavage/tracks/little-england
I added melodies to the initial track and then Sister Savage
rerecorded the vocals to match the new melody.
After yesterdays experiment with noise gates and vocal transformers I thought I'd have another go using Rytme as the source material.
A single Rytme track with multiple playheads is playing into a Logic channel containing Kore playing the Absynth…
damn! wow, I either missed this or I am hearing it with new ears. Really class. Going to give this playlist a better listen tomorrow. 'Listened to 1432 times' BAM!
The first version.
This is the first and only song I wrote on [arrsuarez](http://alonetone.com/arrsuarez)'s Christmas gift to me, a mbira that he lovingly crafted by hand.
 the calm before the storm or b) the eye of the hurricane. Either way, it is calm and tranquil but it's only fleeting. There's something really heavy about to hit. In an album, I would put this right before a hard hitting track.
not sure if it will go on the next glubotic revision or if it belongs elsewhere. This question gives rise to my multiple-music personality disorder/syndrome. glu.botnet, happy machines, and a few more might get thrown into the next album revision when I get around to it.
and the BTTC remix? Any progress?
the first multi track piece that I actually finished "in the box" in Cubase. An ambient kinda thing that grew out of playing around with the Line 6 DL4. Not sure I like the bow parts, but I may re do it later
Warning: silliness ahead!
alloy (along with this months issue of MusicTech) got me into the creative possibility of gate and pitch shifting effects so I spent a happy morning playing with Logic's noise gate, vocal shifter, and ring shifter…

Okay so I enjoyed doing Glubotism1 enough that I thought I'd take a second crack at it. Same tools but took a different approach to how I used Stylus RMX and I introduced some of it's built-in effects on some of the parts. Also I bused RMX and…
So one too many coffee's and I have insomnia, I decided to mess about with my prototype sequencer Rytme and one of the Logic piano presets (Piano Motion).
I came up with this piece (in the key of A Major) which is rather repetitive (a quality…
thanks for listening to the glubotic RPM! This morning, I just gave it my first listen since March and I started getting excited about working on an updated version. it's interesting to see who favors which tracks.
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!

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?

This is really nice!
perfect. love the e-bow action. I want one too! goes perfectly with the gates stuff.
yeah, busy mix ftw! It was so much fun watching this come together. Sister Savage's new vocal take was really inspiring.
el mejor aqui!!! Me encanta la moda.
you are a super class sound designer with these experiments. I'd love to incorporate your work in some future mixes.
Oh yeah! Hot!!!!

oh this is nice! I really like it as it builds from around 01:15....01:45..and then the melody at 02:00 is great
like the melody here, Uncle. The vocal treatment is nice too... the stereo voice effect is great! and the dancing guitar layers... nice stuff
oh yeah! like the beat... Bom chk! Bom chk! --bp bp --bp bp
Nice! Jeffy G is here! woohoo! sounds like one of the piano motifs from "Lost"
I knew none of this prior to titling the song!

think I might do another mix of this... keeping the integrity of this track this time.
