Dedicated to my mother on her birthday.
In the outro: Trombone, Horns, Clarinets, Mouthpiece buzz by Andy Hentz (arrsuarez) and organic drum related sounds by Glu.

Comments on glu's stuff

Cool ideas here, nice sequencing and use of sounds as rhythm. Does have a dreamy quality.
very cool . It sounds like this project was alot of fun.
This is so excellent...
Glu is Awesome, and a staple food in my music diet...nuff said.
Gordon, this is some wicked cool stuff. Very catchy. I miss CICRA.
I really lie this one Rachman
Thanks for taking me back to the jungle!!!!!!
Ah Glu, killer track as always!
"It glides! It glides!" Well said.

i'd be fine with 'the artist formerly known as glu' as long as I could wear some of those ruffly silk shirts.
it was not until the savage ladies commented that it all made sense. x
nice production and rapping.this track is hot.
with every listen i get closer to something special
double favorite!
man i really dig this one. The sounds and mood you achieved here are just stellar.
one of my top alonetone favorites. the only thing I understand is the title -translates to "senseless woman" no? anyhow here know French?

what a great tune.
this is delightful music for this late night. gorgeous palette of sounds and melodies.
Jefwashere and I just listened to this one. "a masterpiece" he says... a masterpiece indeed.
thanks Kirk! I love this one. My buddy Emmanuel rocks the tabla.
no commercial loop! I may have looped some of the ambient sounds, but no 'loops' were used..
