Aw, glu! Man. I've been missing out on your excellent output. Sorry to be absent from alonetone so long. (Been working my a$$ off.) This is terrific. Listening for the elephant...love that whispery, swishy rainy sound that motors through here. Great atmosphere.
I recorded four minutes of bird life in a bamboo patch during my last day in the Amazon.
I arranged the string section with single note samples of cellos performed by the Philharmonic Orchestra.
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.

I'm disturbed by the love affair people have with institutionalized violence. We inadvertently endorse and legitimize war by saying nothing. Maybe it is because we would rather subdue ourselves with meaningless television shows and those neurotics social networking 'about me' quizzes than challenge the norms by which geopolitical power is executed worldwide, both economically and militaristically. What world did Enlightenment principles bestow us with?
MMi's Voices

MMi wrote the song. I programmed percussion, recorded tabla and vocals.
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…

Open D tuning (low to high D A D G A D). Just a practice session where I had the guts to press record.
No drugs. Just beer with dinner. Maybe they put something in the creme brule…
so Airport Columns.. and Opened... I think these might be my two favorite MMI tunes at the moment. This one is magical. I imagine a caravan of nomads wandering through the Serengeti desert in search of a waterhole, but the electronic ambiances suggest that it's some kind of computer-generated dream... like I'm really laying in an isolation tank in someone's laboratory.
thanks for the comments Glibert! This one was thirty minutes from figuring out the guitar lick to bouncing the tracks. I'm most happy with this brainstorm out of all of these because it just came out when I began recording... more naturally than the others.
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?

hahhaha yeah!!! filthtone ftw!!!
this sounds utterly hopeless in the best of ways.
I think your 'desert gypsy' and my 'it's storming inside' need to meet up for a draw!
hands down... this is my favorite kjwise tune. bittersweet melody + female vox ftw!
really enjoy d&b-esque tunes with piano
just in case you both are clueless.. this is my favorite ACL tune to date. :-)
I'm still waiting for 7/8 done version :-)
oh yeah, why did I not fav' this one sooner?
woah I remember an earlier version of this one! This is gorgeous. The instrumentation is perfect.
if this were a crayon color it would be pensive purple.
poignant. Perfect title.
