The first bioelectrophilia track since returning to the US. This song was made with only 2 saki monkey vocalizations. Note the beginning of the song which demonstrates how one vocalization was turned into part of the percussion.
This one is dedicated to my dear friend John. Thanks for changing my life for the better....
Also a big thanks to our own Greg Connor who helped me get the chords for my own uke accompaniment, and who kindly played the beautiful guitars…

KICK SNARE AND HI HAT are from my limited one-shot sample collection on this computer. The rest of these sounds are samples of mosquitoes. They basically fly around my short shotgun mic while I try to record saki monkey vocalizations. I figured…
This is quite an old track that got abandoned because I didn't feel it was right or going anywhere.
But listening to it in iTunes this morning I thought it passed muster. I don't think it has enough variation to justify it's length but it's gently…
This one almost got abandoned, I didn't seem to be getting anywhere with it.
It started as I was looking for a sound for another track (which really isn't getting anywhere) and I came across a chime sound that I thought would be lovely with a…
A morning storm recorded in the courtyard and a musical motif written in the evening. combined time working-- 45 minutes, interrupted by a phone call from the parents to see if I was still alive.

now i'm getting the picture of a sad cowboy clown riding his horse into a storm... makeup dripping off the face... sandbags.. i think you are onto something.

sandbags, it looks like we both have the hero complex. I empathize, it's a terrible self-inflicted typecast to put on oneself, but almost irresistible to the psyche to want to be the rugged cowboy hero archetype. Damn you Jung! It cooled off here in Texas after the storm, so we had a little sub 39C air blow in yesterday.
Ambient guitar with generous reverb served up on a bed of glitched up vocal samples.
Boring technical details:
Puremagnetik voxbox micropak came with a bunch of vocal clips. I put them all into live and gave them all follow actions to play…
okay. so i listened to this one again. I was in the wrong state of mind the first time around. the voices are telling me to ask you if this can be imported into Live 7?
Comments on glu's stuff
What if Mike Oldfield did Darkwave... it might sound like this. The wild-panned backward drum solo in the middle tickled my ears, nice 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 love this F#*&ing song...sorry about that...my mouth got the best of me" -Barney Flowers
Very chill.
I REALLY like this one!!
OOHHH WE REALLY DIG THIS...You are going to be at our next shindig, we're thinking martinis on the roof and an earful of GLU! Just Brilliant!
exquisite
nice sounds here too! thanx for yer nice comments... big up!
Wow! Nice. This builds really nicely. Reminds me a lot of NIN. Sweet!
Very original! Pretty cool. Love the voice saying "Can we hide."
excellent¡¡¡¡¡ experimental rock, with the GLU touch.
Loving the title ;-)
Comments made by glu
no plans. just discovered it. I have no idea what to do... but I'm glad I found it! I really like the way you characterized the feel of the tune.
better be working on that EP!!! ;-)
+1 for recording in the kitchen.
tight!
actually this one was inspired by honey nut cheerios, and it will likely never see the light of day. I need to eat breakfast more frequently.
that was me.. not some creepy guest haha
oh Bethan, if you only knew where this has gone and where it came from... I should be done with the next version sometime in the next week
oooh this is compatible with my circuitry!!!
whew, good thing you kept this one. I like the chime.
Tiger Lovin' or sad clown cowboy. Either way would make for provocative lyrics... or i can write about how I'm about to be late for class. gah!
now i'm getting the picture of a sad cowboy clown riding his horse into a storm... makeup dripping off the face... sandbags.. i think you are onto something.
now there's a idea for lyrics.
plus some croc boots would be real pimp

no way... I had no idea! :-)
This is playful! Moves nicely. 'meat on meat' inspiration for a song called cross swords...! way to musically articulate that!
okay. so i listened to this one again. I was in the wrong state of mind the first time around. the voices are telling me to ask you if this can be imported into Live 7?
really digging these pacifying tunes. may i go live on this moon? It's tranquil.
very nice to listen to this as I torture myself with course work on a friday night.
very nice. i love the ebow and lower guitar strums...
