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.
This great old (Public Domain) song by Stephen Foster which I just do and has nothing to do with my current state of life but may not be true for others.
I do this song in a most unusual way. That is to say I changed the melody of the verses…

This Song (Recorded and written in 06) done the conventional way. I Wrote the words 1st. I was thinking I would like to write a song kinda like those of the old days. Pretty straight forward and Not too abstract. I need to redo because the chorus…

hey thanks for the comment. what do you mean by "the spacial thing?" acctually, i'm not too pleased with how "a love song for the cursed" turned out, my friend who wrote it has an incredible voice so i guess its hard to match :D thanks again!

A song I did a while back of which I aim to re-do at some point. This one still has the scratch vocal and Acoustic guitar so rather crude and gravel like.
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…

Sudara says: Just found this on my iPod.
Basically it was the first full mix of the tune, before it passed back to glu and then back to Sudara for the "original" version.
This is heavier, more energy, less fraility, and in Sudara's opinion a…
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…
Originally conceived as a mellow-ish, Stephen Stills sounding number (at least the verses), then the chorus came to me out of nowhere and turned the whole song on it's ear. I think that was for the better. I have to admit that I surprised myself…
Hey, notice the new forum section... Track Therapy? discuss with me: http://alonetone.com/forums/track-therapy/topics/help-me-find-direction-for-this-track
Mr Glu
I like your little ditty. I think it has a lot of promise.
The one thing that I believe it needs is a "B" part. You are basically playing the same chord progression over and over again. Not too bad since it's only 2:29 long but a B part would help. I don't know what key its in but lets just say its G. Your B part should be in some other rel chord starting in C or D and progress for 8 or so bars somewhere in the middle of the tune. Just to mix it up.
I hope this is what your looking for.
I do not know anyone named Lilly Child. I just thought the name sounded good.
This is third of 10 "Off the cuff" songs written last June. I have only recorded 4 of the 10
Comments on Gilbert Neilson's stuff
I like the layered guitar, this song and your voice totally remind me of lou reed. its awesome keep on truckin!
I like your style Gilbert. This is a cool song.
Great hook - really nice sounding production. Love the guitar tones!
Very funny Bethan! Sorry someone sneaked in before you but thanks for asking.
Fav'd one minute in. Great Job. Love the chords you've chosen. Just beautiful
Lovely airy feel. If I had a hangover this morning, this would be pure bliss - but I don't, which makes it even sweeter.
Yes, you have given this song the wonderful Gilbert treatment. Love the harmonica.
by the way, i like the multiple guitar layers, its very rhythmic yet melodic!

Lovely song, like the chorus especially.
I do love your laid back style and accent mmm. Oh yeah, I nearly forgot, great song!
Like this too good song mate
This is great love it
Great pick-me-up music. (And I played this along side "Nightbird" by rdegive by accident, and it sounded awesome with a birdsong backdrop.)
Thanks Johnny, glad you liked it.
Nice track mate
I meant "awesome" :)
how do you get this awsome stereo sound?! great work
Lovely mix and such a big sound off of those strings! Great song, sir! I love the way it gets darker verse by verse.
yeah ! great strums man.

Nice!
0029 had no sound and this has. I liked 0029 better
Crazy title but nice sound.
I hear nothing. Is something wrong?
I like the solid sound and beat!
A fun tune for sure. Well constructed.
Great job and great sound. I like the Live sound you get on the softer parts.

Thanks Stu and Tim. I am glad to be here.
