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:

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
This is one track where I can say, without reservation, that I am really happy with how it came out.
I worked up a beat I liked with 3 Stylus RMX parts making good use of chaos and time designer for the breaks.
For the first time I really…
Glu guides you through an instructional song, revealing secrets along the way.
Instrumentation: Director's comments included! beat boxing, real swords, acoustic guitar, synthesizer, vocals, drum programming, tabla, and tambourine. My apologies…
thanks for the apple WG! Have you tried my coffee-making instructional track?
it might help you work on your homework :-)

Music for a rainy late night in Minneapolis. This track went from conception to completion in a period of two hours late Thursday/early Friday, with the mixdown beginning at precisely 12:41:00 AM, August 14, 2009.
Written, recorded, and mixed in 24 hours. August 01-02, 2009, from 6am to 6am.
Instrumentation: Two acoustic guitars, electric guitar (picked and bowed), fretless bass, about 7 different flutes, two tabla drums, rattles, tambourine, didgeridoo…
We decided we've got too many odd ideas, so we're going to start a series of Esoterica. Here's our first.
"The Light Dances with The Dust" is a fragment of a song by our frontman, written for a big-band-funk cantata to be performed by The…
"You're Salty Boy Dat's Why You're Attitude Is Shitty-Sour; This Is Da Break-In Hour, I Got It Locked Down!" On Sum Straight 1993 Raw Underground Hiphop Extraordinaire! From BeeOne's Underground Debut "In My Opinion".
Written and Performed…
I've had a bit of a love/hate relationship with this one.
I enjoyed making the beats and think that part came out pretty good but everything after that felt rather haphazard and didn't feel right to me.
I was close to abandoning the track…

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!

Just keeps getting better and better.
WOW Great track- wish I had pots and pans that sounded like that!!

woah... just lovely. I'm with Kirk... awesome flute melody. great feel to this one.
woah, I like the last melody in this one. Thanks for the comment.. 'Bob Ross of electronic music' !!! :-) held my side in laughter!
wow, beautiful. Nice big sound.
yes, i'm faving my own track but that's because it was such a brilliant 24 hours of life.
gorgeous. I love the way it is now, but it would also be fun to hear a beat to it... I hope to see The Charismatic Megafauna live one day!
dope. love the beat, rap style, lyrics... just dope.... all the way around.
awesome lunch break. Always dug this one.
yeay! love it! you are quite the sound sculptor, amigo.
love the rhythm and bass.. and the bah bah bah bah. nice homage.
ahh yes! The The!! How did I forget about them? Didn't they sign onto Nothing Records awhile back?
Oh eee Oh... Oz reference ftw! Love it!
