Sister Savage has a little star in this track!
Melody based on 'ah! vous dirai-je, Maman,' by Mozart.. the original composer. I think it's the first and second variation of 12, but that was like 15 years ago that I learned the piece so I have…

I think I dislike this song, but it's been sitting in my bounce folder far too long and something about it still makes me play it from time to time. Maybe you will like it more than I do. the simple lyric is not meant to be interpreted literally…
Written, recorded, and mixed in 24 hours. August 01-02, 2009, from 6am to 6am.
Instrumentation: Two acoustic guitars, electric guitar (picked and bowed), fretless bass, about 7 different flutes, two tabla drums, rattles, tambourine, didgeridoo…
thanks for bringing this one up to the front again. I have only listened to about 2% of glu's music. I have estimated it will only take 2 years to listen to all his music. hehe. And it's well worth the time.
The psyche is a weird place, I'll just talk about it musically.
The piece begins with the sounds of Sudara's autoharp, the weeping woodwind sounds of the clarinetist from Megafauna Lacrymosa , and a low kick-like percussive sound, which is…
From today's one hour session:
acoustic guitar, fretless electric bass, tabla, tambourine, and the synthesque sound is the electric guitar played with a violin bow
Left over audio from "How to Glu"
This one is about power and resistence.. which I find to be quite sexy when I think about it.
Instrumentation: distorted and clean acoustic guitar, swords, tabla, synth, drum programming, clapping, vocals.
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…
As somone who teaches photoshop I have to agree nice album art. All I would change is to look at the colour balance and give the body a little blur on the edges to make it "sit" in the picture a little more,

Happy Sunday Alonetoner's.
I wrote this song yesterday as I had some recent events to ponder.... I hope you like it. Trying for a bit of a bluesy feel. If you'd like to download it and add some background blues bass or guitar, or harmonies…
This song was made with only two short bird samples.
1) A wild screaming pija and 2)parrot. I made it last night after taking an antihistamine for all the chigger bites. paz.
hello!! i just clicked on your website from the ACA website,that's where i want to go to do a volunteering as a resident artist soon.

definately fits the title... I just discovered a bank of weird sounds I haven't even messed with on my keyboards. I'm feeling too gloomy to write any more....l8r. :)
This is a new song that started as a guitar pick, then got some words. I finally recorded this. It has 3 parts. Nylon guitar, Electric and voice. This is part of the "human racing" series I am working on.
Matter is surprising
Not what…
I'm almost totally happy with this song except it is for the mix. I would appreciate any comments on how to improve it. Is too bassy and the mix has a big blip in the beginning where it gets louder for a second. I know I can fix some of that with…
nice track.. love the lyrics! Because you are looking for comments to improve your mix... you could also try the alonetone forum section "track therapy" -- it's a little sleepy but maybe more folks will start posting if more start using it.

I recommend doing something with the percussion to compliment that nice bass; drums sit too low in the mix- bring them out... and they could use some variation to keep the track moving/building. Nice song idea, I look forward to hearing the final mix. cheers!
Fiddling around with an open G tuning and I found the chord that 'Prodigal Son' is based on (a Robert Wilkins tune from the 30s made famous by the Stones) so I had a play around with it, stopped for dinner and came back and wrote the lyrics…
New stuff has been slow in coming for me lately, but I found this lurking on my hard drive from a while back. Frankly don't remember how I did it except that it was all live to 2 tracks and at one point one of my synth patches glitched out on…
This is my first recording and not great quality. I have ordered a better quality microphone, just waiting for it to arrive. Quality aside, I was hoping for some constructive critcism/comments on my version of this song.
yeah, it was a quixotic ambition I had about a year ago, before I fully admitted to myself that everything has been done before. Nevertheless, thanks for listening, and I hope you enjoyed it!
yo Nitro!!! Yer fix is coming. about 5 hot cakes... one just uploaded.. but the best is soon to come.. early next week. I kidnapped a Peruvian until Sunday; you should come meet him! After I hand him over to the proper authorities I will finish these tunes. You will love them....

Fabulous track!
sdsadsd
What a cool track! Put a didgeridoo on it and it would remind me a bit of Outback. Where's the Glumeister been hiding lately anyway?
pretty cool.
brilliant
Guitars.....sooooo cool! I just dig this tune! And swords too! What more could you want?!!
Classic Glu- Beautiful!

Just wanted to comment on your album art..you do amazing graphics. The snake with your upper body is awesome.
Great groovin' track man!

--nice, man; 'pure emotion.' Thanks for recent comments.
Nice atmospherics Glu!
This is intensely dark. Ambient tracks like this can be hard to pull off. This is very well done.
you make me smile, man thanks for recent comments now i'm going to go listen to jsbach's sheep may safely graze best
definately fits the title... I just discovered a bank of weird sounds I haven't even messed with on my keyboards. I'm feeling too gloomy to write any more....l8r. :)

¡magnífico! what a powerful piece
thanks moschell! you hit the nail on the head!
kirk-- keep excavating that hard drive.. this one is lovely!
just perfect. lovely voice. welcome!!!
i mean light.. as in happy and slightly melancholy. I'm serious about those evolving layers of sound... awesome.
it dances between light and slightly melancholy thanks to the interesting progression. Moving textures ftw!

really enjoyed the lyrics! nice one Moschell!
This is awesome!
Love it! Nice no budget choir!
