his song is just an experiment or at least started that way. Based on an "Ultrabeat" groove ( the only loops ) I added parts and sang an "Off the cuff" vocal and mixed and tweaked. Mostly Midi parts played through my cheesy Midi controller but…
White Light was written in June along with 10 other "Off the cuff" tunes. Just before the great flood in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Our house was flooded and slowly being rebuilt. This is 4th of the 10 to be recorded.

A new version of an old song I wrote back in the late 80's. This version is prob a bit too slow but it's one of those things you get used to after awhile. This recording was also suppose to be a "study" version and then the real recording made…

i had fun playing my keys along with this one...what the progression you are using? I seem to have found Emaj to be prediominant. Along with c# d and e in part of the catchy melody line?? I'd have to play around with it some more to be sure...thanks for sharing!

I had this old song sitting around and decided to re-do it. The chorus used to be slightly different.
The drums are from "Drummer" and the song is played using "Pointless Picks" Recorded in "Garage Band" and Mastered in "Tracktion."
This is a re-do of "Up on the hill" done the conventional way. I wrote the words 1st.
This is my 1st attempt at using Logic Express. I should learn most of the basics by spring. :)
The old version has been posted here This new version has Drums…

This song has sat around for quite awhile with a different melody. While the old melody was alright I thought it was too sappy. So I changed it.
I don't care for this recording, I think it's too busy. It's one of those things that get out of hand…

I wish I was tipsy, dancing with a cowboy in a hideaway diner that stays open all night.

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
Something completely different- Uilleann pipes(Irish bagpipes) and synth. I wrote this tune over 20 years ago in the style of traditional Irish slow airs. It was recorded way back in 1991 for an album that's been out of print for over 15 years…
A coop between me and another alonetoner and a Chill productions member, Captain Kirk. Original melodic idea and lyrics by me, guitar, piano, final mix, final composition and mastering by Kirk and the beautiful singing is done by his wife…
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.
A cover of Iron Angel Forge's song from his 2009 RPM Challenge album, Not Forsaken. He is here at alonetone under the name IronAngel.
I haven't told him yet, though, so it's a surprise ;~)
Hey! Thanks for the visit!
Doug
I'm feeling new.
I'm seeing you.
I know right from my soul.
I don't need malady, baby, in my heart.
Rolling around.
Rolling ground, moving around the bend.
Is it true?
I'm in this mood.
It's coming from my…
their aren't many things that take "it puts me to sleep" as a complement. i think this song takes it wonderfully.
thanks jason for making music and letting me give it a try.
1st of 10 "Off the cuff" songs I wrote just before the great flood.
I haven't really had a chance to work on any but this one. This is different than the rest of them. All I did was turn on a drum machine and played and sang what ever popped into…
i think this is fairly self-explanitory...it was inspired by a line in The Brothers Karamazov, which went on to examining myself and my tendencies as a sinner.
A one hour track start to finish - words music and all the faffing around at the end to get the levels right.
It's a ghost story. So go get your cocoa now!
And a Murder ballad and a love story (but aren't they all).
Old Conor Higgins…
For my friend and coworker, because he certainly deserves it.
This song is friends with [song for themcgruff](http://alonetone.com/sudara/tracks/song-for-themcgruff)
This is my 12 hour song (written, recorded, mixed, mastered) ... I pined away all day at it while a storm kept me company.
instrumentation:
a man lost his house and sold me his fretless bass for next to nothing. a family friend gave me…
Written today.
recorded on an iMac with the internal mic and no headphones (!) so it's probably going to be muddy as hell, but that feels about right for now.
LYRIC:
Fill up the glass, Bartender
Ply your art
Quench the fire in here, now…
Another of the three songfight inspired titles. Painted Tense (the title) actually came from a band name generator website. I thought it might make a good song title so I submitted it to the RPM HQ person doing the name-from-a-hat picking. I would…

Way too slick, bro - Very cool! Badass guitar and vox, and I love that bass line! Killer track.
Pulp fiction groovy. I dig this one.
Nice one man! Great groove!
fine tune dogg.
love the full bassy sound...just devine.
Real nice tune.

Hi Gilbert, hey long time! Lovely, gentle song here with most pleasing lyrics. Good one!
Those vocal harmonies are fantastic. Wow - I love it!
Cool tune - Good vibe to it!
I'm really diggin' your style. Nice chunky junkyard groove here.
Very cool tune...fun and groovy. Very well sung...a unique voice.
This is awesome! Love the voice... A lot... Great stuff! Thanks for your comments too! For "Trinity Jam" the guitar is an old Ibanez RG.
Sweet! I liked the old version but this one is better! Great lyrics!

A master no doubt!
Glorious Music indeed!
Great stuff here! Love those pipes.
Very nice! Beautiful!!
great capture of the storm and appropriate muse for the occasion.
lush and beautiful! 30 min to upload? Fantastic!
Very funny Bethan! Sorry someone sneaked in before you but thanks for asking.
Great cover. Love it Stu.
I dig the loose style!!
Nice tune! I like the way it changes half way through. I would try to do the spacial thing all the way through.
Thanks Johnny, glad you liked it.
very nice! I like the minimalist treatment. Not crazy 'bout all the lyrics but that's just personal opinion. Great mix and build-up.
Excellent!
You already know I really like this!
Typical great stuff by Mr Gumbo
Very nice, clear and beautiful!!
Pine Away very nice. Some great stuff happening here.
Great voice and production.
Stu. Great song! Wahoo!!!
Gary I like your song and the only I would change would be to mellow out the vocal track. It's a bit loud in the mix. Otherwise great j0b
