ahhh Kirk, there is a world of darker glu that I've carefully buried here for excavation! This one was made with mandolin and the plucking of piano strings..

Just a slight rework from early this year. New mix and vocals sometime in the near future. I'm lazy.

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
written, recorded, mixed, and bounced in 30 minutes. Just a brainstorm.
Instrumentation: acoustic guitar, tabla, rattle, tambourine, claps, kick sample.

I think I dislike this song, but it's been sitting in my bounce folder far too long and something about it still makes me play it from time to time. Maybe you will like it more than I do. the simple lyric is not meant to be interpreted literally…

Today I gave a quickie demo of Live to my guitar instructor. I started with an empty set and threw some crap at the wall just to show him one of the work flows.
Later, when I brought the thing home I couldn't leave well enough alone and started…
An experiment that became a meditation.
Two tracks. One guitar, one looper, one e-bow, two tracks and a touch of Live's Overdrive effect on the second e-bow track.
The starting premise was could I get the sound of many guitars by continually…

One of the things about my [Glitching Satie](http://alonetone.com/sandbags/tracks/glitching-satie-1) track that I wasn't comfortable with was that it wasn't my recording that I was using. But I'm nowhere near good enough to play a piece like Gnossiennes…
We're deep in the glitch mines again.
This time with a beat developed in Stylus RMX, a "melody" using Soniccouture Skiddaw stones and Tonehammer Frendo, and a bass from Soniccouture Abstrakt Bass.
The beat was fed through The Finger with…
Glitchatom-1 is the first in a series of experimental pieces where I'm trying to learn about glitching and get more familiar with Reaktor.
In this piece I'm using Peter Dines [Frankenloop ensemble](http://kore.noisepages.com/2008/06/20/introducing…
It starts out with trashcan drumming.. makes me want to move! Then it evolves with all the rhythmic synth layers... I likey.. If you are passively looking for input, I'd recommend thinking about how to utilize more negative space to emphasize that trash can rhythm at parts...I think you do this in a different way.. in sections rather than throughout the track.. and well, my recommendation comes with a big fat disclaimer... I tend to want to hear the wall of sound layers deferring to tribal beats :-) , Maybe gate or cut out parts of those polyrhythms on certain beats. I like the grinding end too.

Compositionally this song started out with the drum pattern and grew from there. I'm not sure why I chose the title 'Mad Man' but in some ways I thought it was fitting.
Anyway, this song is dedicated to crazy geniuses whose academic work is…
yeah love the percussion and general sentiment about mad men. Thanks for the warm Ohioan welcome... I'm excited to finally live in a state where the leaves change colors every year! What's this thing called seasons?
@ noëlle-- thanks! Glad you are enjoying the tunage! If you are interested in more music made with animal samples, check out the bioelectrophilia playlist, made mostly from samples I recorded in the Peruvian Amazon last year. http://alonetone.com/glu/playlists/bioelectrophilia
Thanks for listening!
This is a track I started on the ferry over to Wales for a little holiday a couple of weeks back.
* Drums are from Ableton Suite's Session Drums
* Bassline is an patch I created in Live's Analog synth
* Guitar is me playing through Guitar…
more tabla/club music. this one needs some melodic work, perhaps some more instrument layering, more chord progressions... anyhow, should be enjoyable enough for now.
hahaha. no can do, Bethan.. it was designed to make it drop! :-) maybe I should write a disclaimer? I heard it also causes listeners to spill their drinks ;-)
Comments on glu's stuff
AAAHH- Dark indeed! Checking out some of your older stuff. Cool
ahhh Kirk, there is a world of darker glu that I've carefully buried here for excavation! This one was made with mandolin and the plucking of piano strings..
Very intriguing- hadn't heard this one of yours.
You are funny... love it. Very creative! XOXX sista H
OK- Now we need an "international rap like a rasta pirate day"!!
oh S*#^$) so THIS ONE is the newer version. I had accidentally uploaded the first knack at it.
Whoa, where the women at? It's f***in time! Always loved this one.
like it very much! and thanks for your kind words!
Very cool and just a teeny bit harmonically challenging. Awesome.
30 minutes? Very cool. Kinda sounds like an outro for something else. Reminds me a bit of some stuff from Anthony Phillips "Geese and the Ghost"
I feel like im in a holidaay ....ummmmm
The perfect titled track for me to listen to at this moment in time....I am really tired. Your tune however has refreshed me. Easy listening pleasure.
this is an anthem
Nice one Glu

super lush. It just keeps getting better.
