more stuff for the glubotic March addendum. The bamboo flute in this track belonged to an old Subud brother ... I don't really know how to play any wind instruments... but this flute practically plays itself.
Hey, notice the new forum section... Track Therapy? discuss with me: http://alonetone.com/forums/track-therapy/topics/help-me-find-direction-for-this-track
Mr Glu
I like your little ditty. I think it has a lot of promise.
The one thing that I believe it needs is a "B" part. You are basically playing the same chord progression over and over again. Not too bad since it's only 2:29 long but a B part would help. I don't know what key its in but lets just say its G. Your B part should be in some other rel chord starting in C or D and progress for 8 or so bars somewhere in the middle of the tune. Just to mix it up.
I hope this is what your looking for.
Another remixed tune to add to the Goran Bregovic collection.
Let me know what you think! I usually hate house/trance/
4-floor beats but this was fun to remix and program.

somewhere around 3 minutes you should here the sound of people chopping down a tree in the Peruvian Amazon turn into the beat of the song. This song was somewhat influenced by Kim Hiorthøy.
I've been waiting all day to get home, just to be able to listen to this album without interruption - and it has been worth the wait. Absolutely Brilliant. I just can't get enough of this. k
Format Sea - Part Two
Based on the age-old concept that a person is born anew every seven years. It's technically meant in terms of physiology - you develop all new bones/muscle/fat in a seven year period. I kind of add a spiritual/alien abduction…
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..
08 – Feeling Confuzzzed. Written 19th/20th Feb. Recorded 20th Feb.
Come on Wembley, let’s see those hands in the air. As poppy as they come, including plenty of la la las to sing along with. I was very pleased with my Harrison-style slide…
This one was originally slated for the RPM, but I never got to it. I put together this layout one day, and it hasn't progressed since then, but vocals are coming. Does anyone have Tom Waits' phone number?
aspiring abductee pleas with alien to beam him into her ship.
Just a slight rework from early this year. New mix and vocals sometime in the near future. I'm lazy.
Summer Sadness indeed! But bittersweet sadness is best when captured in a smooth tune like this! I loved instrument-switching when I was in a band. cheers.
Something completely different- Uilleann pipes(Irish bagpipes) and synth. I wrote this tune over 20 years ago in the style of traditional Irish slow airs. It was recorded way back in 1991 for an album that's been out of print for over 15 years…
thanks! these are just short brainstorms... you are right, the last one sounds like an ending to a track... Maybe that's what it will eventually become, who knows!
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
A track that I put on hold for the RPM Challenge.
Of course, now I can't really remember where I was going with it... but to have used it in the challenge would have been cheating.
What I do remember was that I had just discovered and fallen…
A one hour track start to finish - words music and all the faffing around at the end to get the levels right.
It's a ghost story. So go get your cocoa now!
And a Murder ballad and a love story (but aren't they all).
Old Conor Higgins…

resistors and soldering iron = good. microchips and robotic arm = bad.

Just want to plug your favorites page. Such a great selection. I'm glad this one is there too.
Nice flute, nice guitar, NICE SONGE!
excellent mixture of instruments and sounds. Genial la atmósfera.
I miss the sound of Oropendolas in the morning. Fab work!
Love the atmosphere/flow (I don't know what to call it) on this beat.
Okay - to quote oh my goodness from a few days ago: ok. so it's time we collaborated. ;) What a great tune. And great disc. Period.
This one just gets me drifting. Great use of space.
Man, the riffs going on in the background are just KILLER. Another ace.

Excellent...turning it up now
This makes me groove and marvel at the waves of light that catch the smoke...I picked a bad week to stop sniffing Glu!
