After creating an album every February since 2008 for the RPM Challenge, this year I decided to concentrate on just a song because well, stuff.
So this, an upbeat, optimistic love song. Bandcamp link and video soon to come.

This track was created as part of the October 2010 Alonetone 24 hr challenge. The challenge is to make 24 minutes of original music in one 24 hour period.

So Jim of "Movement to Contact" asked me a couple of weeks ago to send him something...
I had no idea how ridiculously good the final result would come out.

Such good fun I do it all the time.

Had these backing tracks laying around on my drive for a while and didn't know what to do with them, so grabbed my Ebow and a fretless electric that I built for myself a couple years ago and had a go. My fretless playing is really in its infancy…

I swore that I would NEVER upload this. Was having a bad day trying to loop "nice" acoustic guitar sounds and got frustrated so grabbed my Taylor and plugged it into a cheesy Effects box and straight into the looper. Started twiddling knobs and…

Well done. I'm all for free speech, but I question motives of those who want to burn books, flags, etc. for any "cause". I think the burner's seek attention for themselves more often than not.
@jarvis & kirklynch - no notches, capo @ 3rd fret over the neck, then 2nd capo @ 5th fret under the neck on bottom 4 strings only, sort of an open Cmaj, standard tuning. The intro is an ebow, which I rarely use on acoustic. thanks yawl
Comments on kavin.'s stuff
it's nice to hear you kavin. not only are you skilled, you are possessed by what some poets call duende
If you wanna go for the single option, this is how you do it - inventive, cool, fun, totally original. I feel stoned. Thanks.
Cool sounds, very cool sounds, I gotta dust mine off... And H R Music, YES, you gotta get a resonator
Gotta get me a resonator.
This is wild!!! The harmonics are amazing and how it all flows together and mixes into each other. Super cool.

Some dark, experimental stuff on this album. Digging it.
Always a big compliment to get a smiley from Mac! :)
..and MTC Jim!
very nice Keith. Where exactly was that playlist pic taken?
you are a rhythm machine man! I'll be stealing this 'un for sure!
saweeet...sounds like slide but it's fretless! Did you break out the DL4 for this?
Hope your heads above water my friend, great tune!
Never say never! A well executed loop piece. C'mon Bethan, give it another try!
nice Krautrock sound to this. powerful.
some of by best perfs have been in guitar centers, playing with the really expensive strings I can't afford.
Great one Jim. Love the narrative approach there.
thanks. Son Eric on bass, friend Phil on Edrums. I just served as producer on this 'un.
nicely chilled!
welcome to alonetone Jukka! Glad you're hear.
I never would have imagined this "odd couple" together but the gating was an ingenious idea!
Nice use of silence and note formation. Great!
When I was a lad we used to melt crayons to make multi-colored candles (it was the 60's), seems to me more constructive than outright burning crayons.

Nice mellow jam with thunderstorm, very good.
