Solo acoustic finger picking thing I've been working on for a while. Sometime around 1968 I started studying with Mr. George Bennett who taught me the rudiments of finger picking. Later when we played some gigs together he also taught me the rudiments…
From the archives. Traditional Irish slow air. Myself on the Uilleann pipes with synth backing. This was recorded at a concert here in Weston back in I think '92. Originally recorded on an ancient 4 track machine and then transferred to cassette…
I'll bet the neighbors just LOVE you when you break out the pipes! I guess it could be worse; the Loch Ness Monster Pub in Pasadena used to have a Highland Piper on Sundays, in full Highland drag, too!

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

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…

Rough sketch of a proposed dreamy 12 string piece that I couldn't pull off on the 12 string so did this quick electric version with vocal pads. Not sure of the recording quality- sounds OK in my cans and kinda crappy on my monitors. Recorded march…

One of my "Celtic" tracks - "Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day" is an old English carol and I think the melody is beautiful in its elegance and simplicity. I recorded this in the basement in 2005 or 2006. Penny whistle, bells, guitars and strings…
From 2005 - Another one of my early pieces written on Fruity Loops, I believe written along side Morning at the Quay. As much as I detest re-recording things, I could probably do it justice now (for what it is, but I cringe at the step programming…
I spent the day skrewing around with this Roumanian Minor scale again. I am really testing layered drums on this one, Toms mostly.
There's a lot happening. Acoustic, Strat, Bass, 4 Juno tracks, and all kinds of percussion.
Only a two chord change…
From the 24 hour album. Began this one 47 minutes into the 24hr session. Listen to the full work here: http://alonetone.com/glu/tracks/glus-24
I haven't touched this track in over two months. What does it need?
Instrumentation: Bamboo flute…
story: wings of chaos, wings of beauty. h.g. wells awakens from cyber-sleep in the "Chrysalis". the steam-driven moth-ship is now traveling slowly across an immense nebula. the engine's motoric rhythm generates the soundtrack to the view from…
Very rough sketch of something I am working on, with my even sketchier vocals. All about how we seem to be intent on using up everything this planet has to offer. Any ideas or comments please
Narrative: A lonely scientist was stationed to Tundzha Glacier in Antarctica to study fissures.
Instrumentation: I stretched, repitched, and looped two sections…
A long meditation/wank.
This weeks guitar lesson we started looking at melodic minor modes. I went home and started practicing scales. Wasn't long before I got stuck on Dorian flat 2. So I fired up the looper and recorded a session.
Funny…
Poured myself a small cup of acoustic guitar, half finger picking, half ebow. Nothing fancy, nothing magical, nothing fantastical, just something to relax through.
Otherwise known as the 'opus'. This song was my life for a good year. Left forgotten in the dusty hills of Santa Fe. This is pretty much the A section :)
Well now, this is actually a very old track, made back in March '09 and not that long after I started learning piano.
I was learning a very simple 12-bar blues piece and getting bored with the piano sound I started messing about with the Logic…
A skipping CD of children's music, an old accordion with sticky keys, some subterranean drums and synth bass, a departing train. Hoping to achieve some kind of glitchy transcendence through the broken fragments.

I'll bet the neighbors just LOVE you when you break out the pipes! I guess it could be worse; the Loch Ness Monster Pub in Pasadena used to have a Highland Piper on Sundays, in full Highland drag, too!

Missed this one(easy to do with your catalog) Lovely track!
Such Beauty! Wonderful
What a wonderful trip- thank you!
Nice one! I too can hear strings on it just to fill it out a bit, or maybe even just double the guitar part.
Wow- all the little parts in the background are great. Nice textures!
Great stuff man! Your clean guitar sounds are just crystalline!
Wonderful! Love the ebow on the acoustic
Right up my alley- love it!
