What happened after too much time on youtube watching live vids of "voodoo chile" Noisy obnoxious and very cathartic for me! Live to 2tracks with the Jamman
This is a live cut from an NPR radio broadcast back in 1988 while my Irish Trad group Scartaglen was on one of its first east coast tours. Found recently on a cassette tape. Musically this was one of my favorite periods in the history of the band…
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode
This track is from the 1986 Scartaglen album "The Middle Path". The first tune "Jezaig" was composed by Breton musician Gilles Le Bigot. The second tune is one of the "Cantigas de Santa Maria" and is attributed to King Alfonso X of Spain

More from the archives. This was the opening cut on Scartaglen's 1986 album "The Middle Path". A double jig, a slip jig, and 2 reels. I played bouzouki and Uilleann pipes on this cut
Last of the archives for now. A set of reels from the Last Nights Fun album. I did pipes, whistle and guitar on the last tune in the set. There's a live version of this up here too. This is the studio cut
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…

Several years ago I had a short lived duo with an oboe and English horn player named Nat. This is a demo from that period. It's an old old chord progression of mine that never really had a melody and Nat improvised this melody in the studio to…
A moody solo acoustic thing that I came up with playing in a long forgotten tuning. Just got a new Zoom H4N, so this was recorded in my shop sitting at my reedmaking bench may 12 2009

Mining the archives a bit. This is an alternate take of my "Jimi Jam" from a couple of years ago. Live to 2 tracks with the Jamman. Really only sounds OK when cranked up loud enough that your eardrums threaten to meet in the middle. LOL!!
The more you search, the more you find. Or get lost, which is sometimes the best option. Life goes on and will go on, right?
All the best to you, Kirk!

Kinda rough. I'm uploading this mainly to share a guitar technique I've been working on. I'm wearing a slide on my picking hand and using it to alter pitches in single line phrases. There's a lot more can be done with this technique that I've…

Abstract sound collage. I attempted to combine multiple layers of different guttural depths as well as higher frequencies to complete a range that creates a dark and humid atmosphere. The tracks were recorded sounds that were then cut up and organized…
Three hours.
No plan.
Halloween.
Thirteen tracks.
Dark but not dark.
Toys used:
Synths: FM8, Massive, Absynth
Guitar: GT-10, Timeless 2, Volcano 2, Eos, BigSeq2
I wanted to make a track for halloween but technology problems and time have conspired that I didn't get very far.
However I'm uploading the first couple of minutes of what I have.
Have a spooky night!
Here is the "more complete" track I promised with backing vocals.
A song about loving the real me...who do i see when i look in the mirror? Do I love what I see?....i really want to.
your wooden fingers have felt before

This is a remix of my earlier track [Metaphysical Beat 2](http://alonetone.com/sandbags/tracks/metaphysical-beat-2). In fact it's the 4th remix but the first one I'm really happy with. I even found myself trying to dance along to this when I…
Mat and Jodi have been separated by a vast divide in time and space. AND YET! they can still create the distucto! as if by magic.
this track was part made in Brooklyn this morning and afternoon and simultaneously in Berlin this afternoon and…
Jamie is one of the very first "Off the cuff" songs I wrote. What ever popped into my head at the time. It sat around for many years before I finally decided to record it. Recorded in Jan 08.
Rift is an instrumental (I've been doing a lot of that lately)from The "Orange Morning" Album. Its a seven song album of various instrumentals created for an upcoming project that combines the power of intension, subliminals and brainwave technology…

Ooooh! I'm scared now! Lovely- in a disturbing way of course!
Heavy Halloween! Cool!
