that tickles. makes me think of that scene in "The Man Who Knew Too Little" with the Explosive Russian Nesting Thingy -- only Bill Murray is surrounded by a gang of marionette robots doing the Mamushka.
cheers glu for your comment. its taken me a while to get back to you. sorry. Glad you like it.
and this track of yours rocks. i often download your stuff. the Bush stuff is cool man.
Absolutely love this one. Whole new feel to your music is accomplished with the new sounds. Beats are trademark, but melody is great with elephant instead of a synth. The best trumpet nature can provide.

lyrics:
what’s happened to our city
where has she gone
another vertical building
built over more homes
in enclaves of exclusion
where the American dream is an American illusion
in this despotic system
it is hard to resist them
but…
I agree with Einstein that we cannot 'will' anything, the concept is religious at best(gulp). But you can change your paradigm,
I am certain Einstein's paradigm changed with his theory of relativity, no? The song was intended for avid fans of political change re-examine their own role in the democratic process, you cannot vote for change in this system, just as you cannot 'will' change...
but you can change the way you see the world.
Somehow missed this one. I'm wondering these days how much we truly can change our paradigm. Pondering this reminds me of my favorite Einstein quote:
"I don’t believe in the freedom of the will. Schopenhauer’s saying, that a human can very well do what he wants, but can not will what he wants, accompanies me in all of life’s circumstances and reconciles me with the actions of humans, even when they are truly distressing. This knowledge of the non-freedom of the will protects me from losing my good humor and taking much too seriously myself and my fellow humans as acting and judging individuals."

I love this track though!!

Sounds are 100% birds, bats, and squirrels.
Even that upstairs neighbor bangin' kick-
it's actually a bird call that I ran through a filter, pitched down and thrown into the
animal drum kit.
First draft.
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.
this vocal arrangement only made the cutting room floor. full instrumentalized version forthcoming. i just wanted this arrangement its own chance at life!
My evening challenge: compose and record a piece in an evening. Song titles will reflect the time of day when the day's light slips into the darkness of night.
Took sandbags' [Rytme Shifter 1](http://alonetone.com/sandbags/tracks/rytme-shifter-1) and added my special brand of guitar incompetence.
I bought myself an E-Bow this week and this track was just perfect for playing around. After a day of wankery…
Glu and Sister Savage bring you these remixes!
Original track by Sister Savage:
http://alonetone.com/sistersavage/tracks/little-england
I added melodies to the initial track and then Sister Savage
rerecorded the vocals to match the new melody.
After yesterdays experiment with noise gates and vocal transformers I thought I'd have another go using Rytme as the source material.
A single Rytme track with multiple playheads is playing into a Logic channel containing Kore playing the Absynth…
damn! wow, I either missed this or I am hearing it with new ears. Really class. Going to give this playlist a better listen tomorrow. 'Listened to 1432 times' BAM!
The first version.
This is the first and only song I wrote on [arrsuarez](http://alonetone.com/arrsuarez)'s Christmas gift to me, a mbira that he lovingly crafted by hand.

this song sounds like the soundtrack to either a) the calm before the storm or b) the eye of the hurricane. Either way, it is calm and tranquil but it's only fleeting. There's something really heavy about to hit. In an album, I would put this right before a hard hitting track.
not sure if it will go on the next glubotic revision or if it belongs elsewhere. This question gives rise to my multiple-music personality disorder/syndrome. glu.botnet, happy machines, and a few more might get thrown into the next album revision when I get around to it.
and the BTTC remix? Any progress?
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
Warning: silliness ahead!
alloy (along with this months issue of MusicTech) got me into the creative possibility of gate and pitch shifting effects so I spent a happy morning playing with Logic's noise gate, vocal shifter, and ring shifter…

Okay so I enjoyed doing Glubotism1 enough that I thought I'd take a second crack at it. Same tools but took a different approach to how I used Stylus RMX and I introduced some of it's built-in effects on some of the parts. Also I bused RMX and…
So one too many coffee's and I have insomnia, I decided to mess about with my prototype sequencer Rytme and one of the Logic piano presets (Piano Motion).
I came up with this piece (in the key of A Major) which is rather repetitive (a quality…
thanks for listening to the glubotic RPM! This morning, I just gave it my first listen since March and I started getting excited about working on an updated version. it's interesting to see who favors which tracks.
Comments on glu's stuff
Break-Bregovic-Beats Baby! I heard this track is all the rage in Kosovo ;)
Yeah Booooyyyyyyyyy!! Gettin' my trunk on!
Nice beat...
that tickles. makes me think of that scene in "The Man Who Knew Too Little" with the Explosive Russian Nesting Thingy -- only Bill Murray is surrounded by a gang of marionette robots doing the Mamushka.
Nothing I love more than horns and unintelligable lyrics. :) Great work.
Holy moly. I love this. Freakin love it. I want more!!!!!!!!! -E
ahaha. how cool is this.

100% elephant sounds...
A good one..

diggin the lyrics
Whole new meaning to "When Doves Cry" ;) I take it you got a new toy?
very nice bro!
I'm a sucker for any tune built out of natural sound - and this fits the bill quite nicely!
Sounds are 100% birds, bats, and squirrels. Even that upstairs neighbor bangin' kick- it's actually a bird call that I ran through a filter, pitched down and thrown into the animal drum kit.
Woah, the kick in this one sounds like my upstairs neighbors banging on the floor.
Love those fingersnaps at 2:44 and that explosion at 3:22. This track is really something.
Comments made by glu
beautiful. more piano tunes please!!!
it's good enough for me too!
nice!
This is really nice!
perfect. love the e-bow action. I want one too! goes perfectly with the gates stuff.
yeah, busy mix ftw! It was so much fun watching this come together. Sister Savage's new vocal take was really inspiring.
el mejor aqui!!! Me encanta la moda.
you are a super class sound designer with these experiments. I'd love to incorporate your work in some future mixes.
Oh yeah! Hot!!!!

oh this is nice! I really like it as it builds from around 01:15....01:45..and then the melody at 02:00 is great
like the melody here, Uncle. The vocal treatment is nice too... the stereo voice effect is great! and the dancing guitar layers... nice stuff
oh yeah! like the beat... Bom chk! Bom chk! --bp bp --bp bp
Nice! Jeffy G is here! woohoo! sounds like one of the piano motifs from "Lost"
I knew none of this prior to titling the song!

think I might do another mix of this... keeping the integrity of this track this time.
