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…
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

Yeah I noticed yourself and Tess had done 1 hour tunes but I missed where it all started.
This one is very cool. It's like spaghetti western with a cappacino and candles. ;~))
written, recorded, and poorly mixed in one hour.
Instrumentation: acoustic guitar, fretless bass,
2 tablas, tambourine, rattle, and human body
for snapping, clapping, and vocals.

I love the fact that you are honest about the fact that you're not sure if you like the track. I sometimes feel like that about tracks of mine.
I really like this and actually don't know why you don't like it. It's really got me bouncing along to it...very good.

and you didn't even have to spend the night to get it.
another one from the morning sessions...
Glu and Sister Savage bring you these remixes!
Original track by Sister Savage:

I added melodies to the initial track and then Sister Savage
rerecorded the vocals to match the new melody.

There's nothing like hot coffee, and this is nothing like any hot coffee I've ever had (maybe because I don't usually get it in my ears.) The first few seconds made me smile, and as the inventively rich aural brew took over my senses, the smile overflowed my mug. This was a very fun interlude, beautifully beat-chopped and tastefully presented... and as with all coffee, it was over too soon (I'd suggest a teeny bit of a different ending, not so abrupt, perhaps?) Loved this.
Here I attempt to articulate a few distinct feelings of the home, or the affect of cultivating one's own space, or not.
Instrumentation: house keys, pots and pans, long bamboo flute, synth, drum programming, voice(s), and didgeridoo (a real…
lyrics:
i got a hot date
and you know i don't wanna be late
i need a ride
to the bowling alley
get ready cuz here i come
put my new skirt on
chewing peppermint gum
did my eyebrows fresh
white musk on my neck
part my hair to the right
cuz its…
Rough sketch of a proposed dreamy 12 string piece that I couldn't pull off on the 12 string so did this quick electric version with vocal pads. Not sure of the recording quality- sounds OK in my cans and kinda crappy on my monitors. Recorded march…
Lyrics:
I don't know what you want
when you treat me that way
I can't help being turned on
Is that what you want
Just to see what I would do
To see if I'm in love with you
I'm trying so hard
to sit here and ignore
the way that you…
This reminds me of an old-school Beck track. If you don't like Beck please don't take offense, it's a compliment! Some of my favorite Beck stuff was from the Mellow Gold era.

Still need a ride to the bowling alley? Can you make an extended version of this track so I can keep listening to it without having to go back to the computer to press play again? :)
nice ambient music. I'm fascinated by the randomness... iare these random notes played by you or randomly triggered through some modulation software? Either way, great stuff.
*Electronic rock. Sounds like* **_IAMX_** *and* **_Depeche Mode_**
This is much better than it’s ever been before
Much more real
More rich
More speed
More more
I feel like I could go forever and it only hurts when I stop
This is much…
This album rocks! I was curious after discovering we had both named our albums the same title... good stuff. Reminds me of DM for sure! Very well produced songs.
*Electronic rock with jungle/drum-and-bass influence*
I've never really felt that I was ever good enough
But even I can be improved if I just stay tough
My teeth are metal reinforced
My eyes are plastic lens
And daemons run inside my head…
love the bass... love the claps, taps...wow.. I am really impressed with this album so far. this stuff inspires! so fluid... and not the least bit banal for a 12 minute track... it's constantly moving. you guys pulled it off.. the violins at 05:30 are so awesome. I hear a bit of dissonance in there too. Shit, I might as well be reviewing your album with these lengthy comment chapters. good stuff... You guys really made something special.
Lyrics:
I'm not sleeping
I'm staring at the ceiling
My mind's a thousand miles away
I'm finding faces in the shapes
of plaster that was scraped on the ceiling
Killing time is not so bad
but when you're trapped inside your head…
Love this track from start to end. I really like the drums/ambient sounds/bass/ at around 3:50. A very nice 'series of demos;' I look forward to hearing more.
Lyrics:
No one told me to watch my back
I was thinking 'bout what I lack
What's a boy supposed to do
Life has got me blue
No one told me to watch my back
Now it seems I've gone off the track
It wasn't that hard to do
It caught me by…
Lyrics:
Pass me a handle of that old time tennessee
It's been a while since I've seen the devil
It's a common mistake to think that I'm a sweet and gentle soul
but give me a chance to change your mind
Cause you have never seen me like…
Based on the first lines of a Hindu spiritual song I've had stuck in my head for years, this song was included on the RPM 08 world music category compilation. World music--crazy! Wouldn't have expected that, but I'm honored that it was nominated…
Comments on glu's stuff
nice one!
simply beautiful
A very good shimmery theme! (Great build, too...)
Man, I'm gonna have to use that violin bow technique. Very wonderful texture! (And not too damned shabby for an hour of work!) k

I've been really into an 80's, new order style sound lately. This track really does it for me.
yikes! cutthroat! How did you pass me up within a few minutes.. I just checked!
glu takes down w in 4, but i see w reaching out to tag cheney...i'm looking forward to glu vs. cheney...
Lovely stuff. Had me in the first 30 seconds with this one

I love the instrumentation and building vocals, even though its the same line over and over!
I like the vulnerable harmony.
this is like the cool fade out end attached to another great glu tune
Cool groove on this one- great stuff!!
i never know what to expect to hear from a glu song, but its always good stuff and pleasantly surprising in many ways...
Apparently, I need to buy better coffee. Mine is not this inspiring.
So gooooood.
Love the keys! Reminds me of good things I can't quite remember... well done guys, great tune. Sounds like "if Orbital could do sexy"

anytime you want to make some "Oh My Gluness" let me know! It would be an honor!
this is great for studying! Love the generated stuff. AI ftw!
wow this is silky smooth! love the chord progressions.

Anu, we are birds of a feather... http://alonetone.com/glu/playlists/cyborg-love-song
f**K! this is a hit! You guys really nailed the current sentiment. what an important song. The American dream...it's an anachronism. wake up America!
