Another one from the dusty special price bin! It started off as a Pilot cover, but it didn't end up that way.
Dave Berry added the excellent tele solos and the crazy cool noises at the end. Thanks bro, you rock!
I spent more time on this…
The vodka, ahhh. One of 3 that I recorded to a dimming flashlight during a power outage.
One take into the Micro BR hole with some harmony and noodle overdubs.
Vodka
I want the vodka
'Cause I know it's gonna make me play better…
I recorded this one to a dimming flashlight on the 25th after a windstorm took out my power. I couldn't see the lyrics anymore so I ad libbed and hummed the rest out. My recording device is battery operated, which is cool.

My only musical Christmas present. Tharek(Osckilo) sent me a wonderful Spanish/Arab sounding guitar track. All I had to do was sing. Sometimes that is the biggest treat of all, and I took full advantage of it. Thanks, bro!!
All done on the…
A Halloween collab we did last fall that I thought was pretty cool. Designed to scare old ladies and make babies cry :) I love the way the song peters off in the end.
All tracks recorded with the Boss Micro BR, mixed with Audacity and mastered…

gee.... I've recorded under the same influence! "Excuse me sir... but could you tell us, for all your listeners out there, what was your influence in making this music?" "Oh, I'd say it was vodka....".

Nice, Launched. I'm a fan of the sparce, (when I do it I call it"austere", "minimalist", pisses off my friends who believe a song has to have certain things in it to be bonafide, and I love doing that too!)And, thanks for the listen, and the comments. New Hampshire? I'm in Kittery Point. Maybe we'll collide at the listening party.

Aw, sorry to hear about your RPM - was wondering.
I love this track - your voice sounds especially soulful, and the melody tugs at the listener.
And great back story.
Ok, so I'm just a percussionist, and if your only tool is a hammer, the entire world looks like a nail. I get it. And I also get that our songs are our children, so we should be very careful about whom we let them play with.
When I first heard…
How did I miss this? Very cool and original - No idea how you managed to perfectly sync with the piano. Love it, though.
(And yes, it was a while ago, but I still miss my dog. You never get over it do you? But I really see the humor in a sad dude pining away over his lost dog, too!)
Taking a breather from a few other projects and fired up some drum loops. 3 hip hop beats at 80 bpm. Funny how they just line up like that.
I added some 70's disco synth and some spooky sounds and Bingo.......spooky hip hop.
Go figure.....
Enjoying a few tracks on this site with Indian flavor lately. My brothers legs were so red from slapping them to get the perc sounds in this track, I had to laugh, That alone was worth doing the song ;)
Enjoy # 92

And the coyotes have sharp teeth and they’ve learned how to use knives
And they’re picking the locks and stealing into your house nd drinking all your poison

Crown of Dust
By T.Mokbul
If wealth was found in Shitty eyes
A thousand diamonds…
warning!!! this is a long 10+ min instrumental
It's a piece about 4 years old that was my first attempt at using synth voices,, I am still looking for a good one,, if anyone knows.
The music itself is a tone poem, loosely dedicated to a children…
Little country ditty with a "hook" :) recorded a few years ago at Boyd's in Wylie. I am singing lead and harmonies. That keyboard player is my talented cousin, Robert Nichols, who turned me onto this site. You can search for him here on Alonetone…
walking down the street in the 1973, you're wearing yellow tinted shades, and a hat with a feather in it. Your switchblade is in your pocket, but you're not gonna need to use it today. Cause the sun is shining and folks are eating ice cream…
On youtube there's a short video clip of guitarist Shawn Lane (R.I.P) executing an extremely difficult chord voicing that requires extensive finger stretching, which Shawn calls "the hardest chord in the world." I altered the chord a little bit…
613 is a prime number, 136 is triangular, and 361 is a square number - I didn't know what to name it ( but I wrote a math book once called Mathematical Bliss). Anyone want to put some metal vocals on this?
Comments on launched's stuff
Nice one mate dig it. Thanks for your recent comments mate. Great vocals well mixed. Top track.
I know this tune....I want the vodka!!! Great catchy song!!! Gnasty
Hey Launched, Love this tune man!! Great Groove!! Great Production!! Gnasty
Pure magic. Even in the face of adversity - the show must go on. Well done, nice track.
No objection to the BGE sequel. Nothing but encouragement from my end. Let me know if you need any help with anything.
Where does Baby Green Ernie fit in with all this?
I like your voice .
I like it hot.
Oh, shame about your RPM. This is a great song, produced under extreme conditions, I curtsy to you sir.
I guess I wasn't the only one who suffered a blackout during RPM. Thank the makers for acoustic instruments. Great job, in the dark.
some freakin' freakout shit going on!
Great tune...one of my favorites of yours. Has the Money Mark sound!
exotic and infectious...excellent collab!
Great spook factor...Count Floyd says: ahoooooooooooo!
this came out real nice...dark and brooding.
Fly on Baby Green Ernie, Fly on.

Badass, man!! Love those bass runs!
Dude, this is infectious!

Delicious tune, man. Really cool locked in bass and drum sound.
Holy smokes, bro! Shush is "Lush". I get kind of an Andy Summers vibe to this - One of my favorite guitarists. I frickin' love it!
Spoooookeeeeeee!!!!!!! Yes, I love it!!
Sweeeeeeet!!! A great soother for a hangover. I like the story behind the percussion :)
Great tune, and I love the singing and strumming patterns.
Yummy tune, bro. Tell that bass player to stop playing drunk :) - Mark
Big time awesome, bro! Amazing how you did it one take into the MBR hole! Love it!
Epic and wonderful. Well worth the listening investment!
How can you not love the pants of this one? Cool groove.
Brilliant and wonderful. Great song!
Oh, yeah! I dig.
Yes - I love it
Yep, love it!
Shit hot tune, bro! The triteness is kick ass. Beautiful, just beautiful.
Hell Yeah!
Massive shredding! Very intense. And all done without a Kentucky Fried Chicken bucket and Michael Myers mask, I presume :) Great playing!
Solid! Miles Davis, huh?
