Saw an add on TV for something called "Drag Me To Hell". Dunno what it is with horror films, but apparently scary music is on my mind. Thanks for helping exorcise it.
The guitar part, btw, is e-bow plus slide so any tonality is an accident.
A meditation of sorts.
Arose from experimentation with a technique described here

This is a single take with a bunch of reverb added after the fact in Reaper (also an experiment…
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
Each time I sit down to learn something about Logic, I end up getting distracted and creating some kind of track...
This one uses EFM1 -> Delay Designer -> Live Cut
Some drums through similar craziness
and finally me playing some pads and…
One part Guy Richie, one part Cirque du Soleil, the rest a trip down a gypsy campsite.
Played by me almost all acoustically (the only MIDI track was the bass) on my banjo, detuned guitar, recorder, and violin, along with various percussion items.
Another loop - not recorded that well and don't have the time to do much with it, but here it is none the less. The title more or less is a reflection on my life at the moment. Using the same junk I always do...
I'm a complete idiot when it comes to all things midi related. Recently got myself a midi keyboard though and came up with this short piece just messing with sounds in Proteus. Really looking forward to the possibilities of combining this sort…
Hey! You're invading our turf! :-)
Welcome to the wonderful disease that is electronic music. Can't wait for you to find the hybrid you're looking for.
A rather more fundamentally experimental piece with Reichenbach's new *drift* mode. In this mode a probability matrix controls periodic changes in the loop length and/or position.
Once more I am using one of the awesome [Rekkerd mixed bag](http…
Another experiment with Reichenbach, my phase-shited looping ensemble for Reaktor 5. This time I fed it a sample from the [Rekkerd.org](http://rekkerd.org/downloads/) mixed bag selection #2 called `106_sandylines_01.wav`.
I let the sample play…
Our sun is in a long, cool, quiet period right now. But average ocean temps are the highest ever, and polar ice and glaciers are melting at an alarming rate. Something is going on here.
A friend sent me a loop he made on Reason, and I added a 2nd bass track and about 4 vocal tracks in various stages of aural legibility.
In the song I try to give a friend advice about how to stop his spiral downward. Starting with practical…
This is a track I've been working on for quite a while so I am glad to finally have it out of my head.
I have a kind of love/hate relationship with time and its humble functionary, the clock. Ticking, in particular, is something I am ambivalent…
This track is the result of putting Kavin's excellent track [Propitiation](http://alonetone.com/kavin/tracks/propitiation) through my Steve Reich style phased looper.
It's a beautiful piece but also quite a sparse sound which lead me to think…
A little background to that comment perhaps... recently went to a seminar on recording acoustic guitar and I was struck by how difficult it is to get a decent sound and how even that decent sound pales in comparison to the live take. Thus, wish I was there to hear it in person.
Comments on mmi's stuff
like spinning wheels moving in sympathetic patterns...shifting constantly in jerking motions
sproingy mess, like an exploded machine...very haunted too, saturated and claustrophobic.
Fantastic… where are you?
This is very meditative and cool. Seriously beautiful - wow, I would love to sing to it (I actually am while I'm listening).
Nice. Atmospheric.
Very good
Great atmo in this one!
I see waterfalls and landslides...
sweet
Amazing! Really pulls you in
beautiful work.
Very cool!
Hells to the yes! I didn't know that cerebral convulsive melody was represented on alonetone.com! I need more of this in my life
Very cool!
that's pretty fricken incredible....
Nice sounds
Dig! A groovy funk. I like the ambiance, the beat, the attack. You done good. Rock on!
This is sweet!
Totally dig this number. The effect eats me up. Dig that beat! It's all juicy, man -- Rock on!
Le sigh.

Like this a lot.
Very evocative (though I'm not sure I'm hearing the Guy Ritchie :-)
Lovely track.
Diggin' it. Love the Fripp style lead line.
Awesome track. Thanks for reminding me how little I'm looking forward to my next trip to an airport. :-)
Very evocative piece. The change of gears is wonderfully unsettling.

More coolness. Something that rewards repeated listens.
Very very cool.
No it's not. Nothing going on here. FoxNews says so. :-) But seriously cool track.
Boy, good thing I can spell.
Beatiful.
Stellar opening. Followed by me swooning over the guitar sounds.
I really like the sound you've got going on here.
Reached out of the machine and grabbed me. Like when that happens.
Bravo! I found myself startled by some of the clocks and looking to the side. Mission well executed.
Very nice. I particularly love the "I care but I don't care" section.
I think this one worked out really well. A definite grower.

Awesome recording. Wish I was in the room though.
