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
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
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…

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…

My Scartaglen CDs are long buried in box in the garage...is that Valencia Harbour? Never the less, damn, that's a great tune, great playing. It almost makes me want a set of pipes again (don't worry, hearing your playing does for my piping desires exactly the same thing that Adagio for Strings does for my desire to write orchestral music...realise I'll never get remotely close to perfection)

Something you don't often hear from me and that's
straight drummin'. On this track I left the
original L/R kit track because it just sounded
more raw and nasty. Listen close and you'll hear different levels on the high hat. Plus, you can…
This is inspired by Frippitronics. Frippontroncis is I call non-traditional mood music invented by Robert Fripp master guitarist for King Crimson. It involves loops of sustained guitars, in this case using an e-bow. I usually do one of these…
Hey Kids, Happy RPM. Surf's up! I played this one for my lady, she said she wants to move to California. I'm not sure if that's because I've been wired up in the Dog House for 9 days or if she wishes to try some surfing. Go figure....
Anyway…
Well I *had* intended to try doing something different this week.
So technically I succeeded.
It's solo piano again, but I had to teach my left hand how to play this somewhat syncopated bass line, before I could actually compose against it…
When I uploaded this last night I thought it was a failure, this morning I am not so sure. I've just listened to it again and, while it fails to live up to my expectations when I started, there's something about it that I like.
The initial…
Dark and sinister indeed! I like the use of your voice and the fact this it's incoherent makes it better. OOOOOH! That laughter at the end just caps it off!

War is tough. War is tough on everyone. and War has it's dues. So without further ado I entreat our men and women of the US Military an awesome Electronica piece that will rock your heart out.
just finished this one, represents a slightly new direction i am taking i think.
i am particuarly proud of the polyrhythmic sound i achieved. i was worried it mite become too cluttered (at the beginning) but i think i achieved clarity.

Thank you for your comment! With a smile, Inge (What a relaxing song is this one!)
I was thinking of your tune when I wrote this one a couple years ago: http://alonetone.com/dougsparling/tracks/teampall-an-cheathrair-alainn
Oh, 1991, Last Year's Fun, then...St. Stephen's Street? Been a while :)

Great song man!
Really beautiful!
Nice one man! Love the drums!
Yes- Very different for you and very cool. Love this sort of thing!
What a riot! That had to have been big fun to do!
Lovely meditative quality about it!
Nice!

Yes! Very good tune!
Hooked after the first 10 seconds!
Beautiful man! You must be recording at least partly using a pickup- has that distinctive sound
Lovely layered vocals!
Love cool! Love those harmonics in the outro. Great stuff man!
Had a productive weekend I see! Really nice. Your tracks all have such a distinctive sound
Nice moody one guys!
Nice! Intense!
Haunting!
I can't imagine what it took to put this together. It's so dense, but it works really well!
I'm loving the way this is slowly developing at about the 5 and 6 minute marks. I'm still jealous of your clean guitar sounds!
Wow! Great stuff! This would be a blast to improvise over
