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.

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 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?

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. :)
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...
