I frequently go on training skates on a beach front trail. The parking lot is just off of a major highway bridge (the Burlington Skyway for those that know it). It's always an interesting sound there...

Excellent. The 52 seconds somehow managed to not get redundant as it was transformed into 14min38sec. This captivated my attention all the way through to the end. Very Clever MMI.

Well... what do you say?
I think you have made something very beautiful and involving. I love the way that, at the beginning (especially but also, to a degree, throughout the piece), the whole thing moves as if riding waves.
The sounds are interesting but seem to blend quite seamlessly, I think the arrangement is very good. I particularly like the use of resonation, I think it creates a great ambience towards the end of the track.
I really wasn't ready for it to end.

Interesting to hear 52 seconds turned into nearly 15 minutes of grooving ambience with a semi-industrial feel. Enjoyed that groove kicking in around 5 minutes in or so, too.
Love it! I especially like the buildup before the "outro" part. Very cool. (I can give you the stems for each track if you really wanna mess with levels or change other things around, but I do think it sounds pretty good!)
Gurgling, bubbling, churning.
This is the last track of the March 2010 24 hour challenge.
The process...
- find some interesting synth sounds (have collected many)
- work out some basic chords
- do some filtering
- add two tracks of e-bow…
I've been listening to the output of my *Reichenbach* Reaktor ensemble all morning as it loops and phase shifts a recording of Erik Satie's solo piano piece Gnossiennes-1
I find it to be quite beautiful and entrancing and I decided to render…
Another in my series of experiments with the Reaktor ensemble Metaphysical Function.
I used two instances of Metaphysical Function to generate a soundscape that was bounced to audio, chopped up, and re-arranged.
The whole thing was rather…
Another experiment with the Reaktor ensemble 'Metaphysical Function' only a bit longer this time.
Again Reaktor is the only instrument at work here although it's going through a mastering chain including Space Designer with a very short impulse…
Makes me think that it would be interesting to hear this before it got crushed to mp3. But maybe that would be too scary?
Very cool, even if I have to hide under my desk.
Instrumentation: fretless bass, tabla, acoustic and distorted acoustic guitar, hang drum samples (courtesy of Sudara), soft synth (AAS Ultra Analog), ambient sample of the jungle (pitched down two octaves) a sprinkle of ebow (from my Sudara files).
We're deep in the glitch mines again.
This time with a beat developed in Stylus RMX, a "melody" using Soniccouture Skiddaw stones and Tonehammer Frendo, and a bass from Soniccouture Abstrakt Bass.
The beat was fed through The Finger with…
A little experiment building a sound with the Reaktor ensemble 'Metaphysical Function' which is an awesome sound generating instrument.
Reaktor is the only instrument/effect in this track. I built it using Live 8.0.5 which I am also experimenting…
Experimenting with my piano/keyboard skillz and a first attempt at record clapping. Needs a good go over with some quality drums and some better arranging. Everything sounds very "synthy" on account of I don't have any quality VSTi at the moment.
I told the [good Sister](http://alonetone.com/sistersavage) that I wanted to try using vocals in a track and she offered to do me some abstract, stylized, vocals that I could play with and this little number is the result.
Working with wet (pre…
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…
Poured myself a small cup of acoustic guitar, half finger picking, half ebow. Nothing fancy, nothing magical, nothing fantastical, just something to relax through.
This song is actually part 2 of a 10 minute set I did on my laptop. I broke it into 3 separate songs. Part 1 and 2 were my favorites, as part 3 just based itself on a copyright free sample I did nothing with. I like this one most because of the…
Welcome to my 300th Alonetone upload! I sit with a pile of books to read in a house full of boxes and my studio is not even completely set up; however, I had no choice but to write and record this tune today once the sun went down. This song is…
One of the things about my [Glitching Satie](http://alonetone.com/sandbags/tracks/glitching-satie-1) track that I wasn't comfortable with was that it wasn't my recording that I was using. But I'm nowhere near good enough to play a piece like Gnossiennes…
And the award for unique interpretation goes to...
Sandbags! (crowd goes wild, cut to surprised and happy recipient high fiving his guests)
Awesome stuff man.

beautiful & ditto what everyone else said too!
I'm amazed at what you are able to put together with noise. Loving the rhythm that emerges at 6 minutes or so. Great stuff man!
PS - The rhythm generated at around 10 mins 40-55 is fantastic!
Another surprisingly melodic soundscape! Love those birds especially! This is very clever.
Like it! :)

This is an excellent song.
Nice job! Great sounds!
Oh aye, lovely bass... :)
Fairground of ice!
I would have been listening to this in 1976 late at night with all the lights off right along with my Dark Side of the Moon album. Loved it.
Works for me! Nice
great collab gents. Nice additions. ~Geas

this one is cat approved! he's in my lap diggin these cool sounds.
getting lost in these tunes. very comfortable atmosphere.
Gorgeous album.
Wow, you got some really neat sounds from that guitar. I gotta get one of those ebow thingys.

man. what do you say? how about Wooh!
Very, very nice. In the playlist of my mind this track is followed by Supertramp. Weird, I know.
Very soothing. I could listen to this all day... I might just try.
Superb work. On your way to churning out the club hits :-) /me ducks the shoe :-)
exquisite e-bow elegance elevates every element
Makes me think that it would be interesting to hear this before it got crushed to mp3. But maybe that would be too scary? Very cool, even if I have to hide under my desk.
Bravo! Bravo! Maestro! Encore!
No idea how I missed this before but holy moly it's great. I have a vision of robot glitch miners line dancing :-)
This is a very cool and creepy toy. I want one too!
This is the opening to a big movie, right? Camera moving slowly through a New England town in the autumn; red leaves blowing around...
mega holy crap AWESOME!
/me sits stunned incredibly moving
I've been waiting for a long time to hear the ebow on the acoustic. Definitely does not disappoint. Super cool sound and super cool track.
Proving once again that those of us caught up in the gear lust have got our priorities all wrong... great track.
Golly, them's some scary bubbles! Awesome.
hey this cleaned up well. The opening vox reminds very 80s :-) Triggered a funny association.
Special stuff.
mmmmm, very very very nice

Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap. Wow.
