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…
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.
close your eyes and imagine a glu concert-- what does it look like? describe this fake show to me... what would you want to see?
Oh, almost forgot. Many sounds, like these pretty cellos were found on freesound. I did manipulate the pitch on…
very nice. the orchestra at the beginning was really cool. hooray for downloading and manipulating sound effects from the interwebs (that's how I got the rain in "Rainy Day). anyway, I like it, the whole thing flows very well.
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.
Glu...get ready because you have just won yourself a lifelong fan, you sticky beautiful thing, you. This is OMG's big sissy (Al) and I think I love you. MWAH. If you remix "Bubble Bath" with "Girl from Ipanema" I may have your children.
I'm better at using my pots and pans for music than for food, so I post this tune in hunger. 3 pots, 1 pan, and a tabla.
"i'm just a gangsta in the jungle" recorded in the amazon. It's actually a part of a monologue that I will likely never post…

i love how naturally the beat comes in, and you have so many production touches and little details that really lend to the 'computer' feel. this is pretty inspiring. the audience response sounds incredibly natural, as well. i have an instant resentment to computer generated vocals, though. :)
your use of high frequencies is really reminiscent of iannis xenakis, especially 'diamorphoses.' the song l0v3drug brings to mind some alva noto & ryuichi sakamoto works. i think it's the treble.
you are great at separating instruments and ensuring no frequencies sound muddled.

a circle stage suspended on glowing sparks. the crowd slowly floats around, watching the performance arts. the holographic orchestra sputters into view. the sole performer enters, it is glu. the music turns to rainbow mist, and becomes the audience. it is a beautiful show, visual music. 0x0
24 hours of music making for 2008.
Yup. This is a "Gaiman variation" which means that I stopped at 24 hours and this is what I've got. Not 24 min, but it is a "Noble Failure"
You can see my 2007 album [here](http://alonetone.com/sudara…
an exposition,traditional of the raga,bilaskani todi,transformed into a slightly ,dark ambient piece of music,exploring musical landscapes,with a scenario,as if for film music,which my pieces normally are.
I do three things after waking up these days: I shower. I make coffee. I play this song and drink my coffee.
Nothing complicated. Nothing fancy. Just some basic fingerpicking to test my motor skills and bring some aural sunshine into my day.
excerpts from:
great gig in the guy, honey, russ and them, any colour you hike, drain bemage, elypse
a dream came true for 4 people. last friday (17th of october) we made our first complete run through "the dark side" during rehearsal.
not…

not perfect but good enough to do a 'best of'. for us it's been a magic moment…
Even though I wasn't submitting myself to the 24 hour torture, I couldn't let the weekend pass without posting at least something...
Another Elysium powered track.
And no, that's not really a sample of Darth Vader. Wouldn't want Lucas…
I'm really digging these. Planning on expanding them at all? extending length?.... separating them? I really like the melody at 14:00. what a mood in that one. Why can I only heart something once on here!?
don't be so hard on yourself. Featuring your home-brewed software deserves mad props! I like this track, and I look forward to your release of Elysium. Good work!
A masterpiece indeed. I am wowed, but not surprised. Your work is always amazing. A favorite of many. Are you planning on exploring any of these ideas more? You could easily turn this into an hour long album. Each piece is so well defined and poignant. kudos.

Lovely - that mix of wind instruments works beautifully
Well...you had me at 15 seconds! BRILLIANT! Wait until Kirk hears this! w;-)

Wasn't expecting this at all- that's a really different thing for you. Nice guitar sounds. Can't wait to hear it with vocals
very nice. the orchestra at the beginning was really cool. hooray for downloading and manipulating sound effects from the interwebs (that's how I got the rain in "Rainy Day). anyway, I like it, the whole thing flows very well.
Have I told you lately that I love this?
I liked the original, but this is just too cool!!

Makes me want to go play TombRaider! :~)
really like the orchestra tuning up before hand like the intro to fantasia (ya know walt)like space age meets an ancient tribe cool
i would want to see a rotating stage.
glu DOES IT AGAIN! BRILLIANT!
i want to eat a bowl of this.
and listening to this i knew you were a live user!

chills. so good! nomad on friday!
Just keeps getting better and better.
WOW Great track- wish I had pots and pans that sounded like that!!
