Great idea, people. "World class rock from the middle of nowhere." Hey, please check out my demos: http://alonetone.com/skumpybunk/tracks. Thanks a bunch.
There was a contest. I entered. I made the Top 100 and the Judges' Picks lists. Looking back on the whole thing, I'm REALLY glad I didn't win. It was the "Public Radio Talent Quest." The idea was to find the next great public radio host. Three…
@glu - Yes, back! Listening more than contributing, but back! Brevard is a little jewel. White squirrels, water falls, music festival and all. Thanks for listening.
I am singing/vocalizing audio to accompany short scenes in a film made by an artist friend of mine. She calls it "Pattern Pattern". This segment goes with a snowy scene where shadows move in and out like wolves.
A piece I produced for Classical Public Radio last fall after interviewing conductor Stefan Sanderling. What he has to say about music and why he does what he does is powerful, especially against the backdrop of music from Shostakovich's Symphony…
A year ago the Public Radio Exchange hosted a "Public Radio Talent Quest" inviting 2-minute entries from across the country from folks who wanted to be the next great public radio host. Thousands entered. Three won. I created this commemorative…
More vocalizing and mashing for the soundtrack for my artist friend's film, "Pattern Pattern." This accompanies a scene of lights flashing in and out of sequence.

I like your description of the scene, and the movie sounds intriguing. Nice chilly dissonance there with the echoed half-step down. I Also noticed that I'm commenting on a bit from many months ago... so inquiring minds want to know, how is the movie coming along? I know these can become huge projects. From what I've heard here, I'd love to see what you come up with, if possible.
Also for the film, "Pattern Pattern," this goes with a scene of an artist. First you see him up close for a moment. He's drawing. Then you see him walking a distant ridge at dusk.
it is a lone ghost of a woman's voice. it is beautiful and haunting. it is she-thereal. the song takes the mind to that distant ridge. it is a voice that can be listened to forever. 0x0

a curved voice. it is a great instrument. i repeat. it is a great instrument. especially when it is repeated. this was a good experiment. wishes for a great film.
This is a segment that's going into my piece "The Interview: When Words Fail". It's created entirely from a one second sample of a nervous swallow followed by a mouth click extracted from an interview. Overtones were manipulated to create the…

Thanks, Invisible. It could use a kick! Since I've dedicated myself to using only sounds extracted from my radio interviews (made by human voices) I am somewhat limited. Clearly, there's a lot I can do (creating bell tones from overtones, pumping up what low end is there) but using these sounds means I end up pointing to or approaching music. That's what's so interesting to me about the project. I think more it more as audio sculpture than music, but there's a fine line!

Deep house ish
This was one of the draughts for a soundcsape for the launch of Estee Lauder's rather 'Beyond paradise' fragrance.
I think it's better than the one we finally used. I thought it was a bit boring at first but quite like…
Yeah I wrote this with a little help form Dmoneye. Here are the lyrics:
2008 presidential (s)election
It’s the 2008 presidential selection, not election
planned to perfection by media's erection
for soundbyte speeches by political leeches

This is the first cover song I've ever really recorded in my 15 years of playing and recording.
The guitar and voice are each full continuous takes, I didn't want to do comping (copy and pasting), though the vocal harmony parts were done in…
This piece was written for the Vance Quartet, a student clarinet quartet at Oberlin in 2002. My wife is one of the 2 bass clarinetists heard on this recording-- we'd known each other for a few months at this point. The electronic sound collage…
This song made a little splash in the New Music blogosphere back in July 2008. With possibly the first diss rap directed at modern chamber music groups, Hybrid Groove Project (that's DJ Dubble8 and new music saxophonist Brian Sacawa) brought some…

Sparse, sensitive, true. Music is a good place to go when it's hard to talk. Love the lyric about which side of the tree the moss grows on. I learned that navigational trick when I was a kid.
The text on this track comes off a B-side from one of [Putnam Aldrich's](http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Putnam_Aldrich) (my great-grandfather) records. He was a harpsichordist, a professor at Stanford, a chain smoker, and apparently had a sense…
I like this so much I have to comment again. It hits me head on. What great work from start to finish. Not a fleck of sound in the wrong place. The idea delivered within? You hit a homerun.

Thanks, Johnny & Invisible!
This made me smile. "I'on't need no hook!" You tell 'em!

Totally dig this.
Wish you were back in the (other) jungle?
Big Iron and Wine fan. Nice work Su! Sweet corners in your voice.
Glu, you never let me down.
DJ, you are an inspiration. There's so much here. It shines.
This is a gas. And necessary. Go Dubble8. Go get 'em.
Thanks, Sudara. I know radio pieces are a little out of "format" for the site, but they're the audio I'm making, so I figure it's fair to share.

Your project deserves wider attention. Keep me and my public radio peeps in mind, you hear?
Magnificent, you. What a wonderful sound. Chirp and hum. You certainly made the most of it!
Your mom wrote it? Recorded with friends? That's the good stuff. Life as it should be. Thanks for uploading!
High quality ambient journey.
Gorgeous.

This is so frickin' cool.
Athony, your music is so, so beautiful.
Lovely work. Vocals are spot on--excellent presence and depth.
