An ambient anthemic piece.
The process:
- Start with a live take of me playing an iphone app called tonepad.
- add camelphat and camelspace
- add an Alchemy instance, find a big fat pad, work out a riff
- record a single take accompanying the…
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…
A happy kind of electro pot-pourri.
The process:
- find a sound, noodle in Ab
- find another sound, develop a compatible noodle
- repeat a couple of times
- program a beat
- add replicant
- find other sounds for a B section
- find more sounds…
Another ambient noodle for this weekends 24 in 24.
The process:
- record a bunch of Plinkton (iphone app)
- dupe the tracks a couple of times, screw with the warping tempo
- add camelphat to one, camelspace to the other, leave the third alone…

it's always a pleasure to listen to your work MMI. I dig how you incorporate anything you wish into your music. You've got an open mind and this allows you to express yourself so beautifully in your aural creations.
Where's all this sappy music coming from? The Olympics were on. I must have been watching too much figure skating or something.
Unmastered track from my 2010 RPM Challenge submission.

I got stuck on a silly little musical phrase, noodling around with it on the piano, unable to let go of it and unable to really develop it into something more.
I recorded myself playing a number of variations as I searched in vain for a deeper…
Made with the Boité Diabolique playing some piano and cello samples. I did a bit of hand editing in Live and then added some light compression, reverb, and limiting.
Once again the source material is a snippet of beautiful piano from [Sudara](http://alonetone.com/sudara) only this time I fed it to a new Reaktor instrument that I am working on call Tukuramu.
Okay so tukuramu does not mean earth-quake but…
I was working on a piano phrase played by Alonetone supremo [Sudara](http://alonetone.com/sudara) (about which, more later).
One of the approaches I took was to load the phrase into the Time Freezer instrument and play it. I kind of got lost…
Started out be an innocent little jazzy study in quartal harmony, but the DL4 was still in my signal path and things went downhill from there! Another done with my beloved '58 Stratotone
An experiment I recorded yesterday with a rig I put together for more or less ambient sounds using two loopers and nearly every effects unit I own. I have no idea who Clark was but he owned the '58 Harmony Stratotone that I used on this cut. His…
This one is live from the cellar last night...Unplugged recorded with one mic..so close your eyes and imagine me here alone on a wet Monday night in Sheffield in the cellar alone as Elvis and Jim had heard about an Happy hour round the corner…
I'm trying to experiment with intentionally combining two different sounds. Since I seem to find this difficult I am starting with using a drone as one of the sounds taking my inspiration from the opening tracks of the Brian Eno & Jah Wobble…
Comments on mmi's stuff
love your 24 and the perfect album cover too.
I dig all of these. A fantastic 24 hour effort. And I second what Kirk said, I want to be a fly on the wall in your studio! :)
Retrohappytastic with maybe a little bitterretrosweet also.
Oh my.
Beautiful choice of voices in here - very beautiful in fact. I can feel the sun shining in the garden of my sonic dreams.
Another nice result. I don't think I'd end up with something this enjoyable to listen to if I tried a 24in24!
Nice! Bits of this remind me of some of the more electronic stuff that Anthony Phillips did back 30 years ago
This has a great flow to it that feels very natural, and the choices of sonic elements are fantastic. Nice work!
Really like this one! Lovely track!
Yay! Let's hear it for apps. Like this a lot.
Strange and understated, I really love this.
very cool man. very, very cool!
The recipe obviously worked! Great stuff man. Wish I could be a fly on the wall for a day in your studio

Whoa horse! Heavy MMI. I like this one man. Real cool sound.
Nice, I enjoyed this. You should paint yourself into corners more often!
Beautiful one man!
this is beautiful... I really love this, thank you.
MMI, there can never be too much figure skating.
very nice album!

Nice. I listed a pile of times. Apparently I fall into the quite pleasing camp :)
Super cool. I love the dark tension.
There's gold in them thar waves.
Very cool. Took me back to my days of listening to Michael Brook.
Very cool and fruitful sonic mining. Inspiring.
Nice! Had to do some googling while listening to learn about quartal harmony.
you should sell tickets to your soundchecks; I'd pay
Very cool. Be interested in hearing how you connected all the bits.
Really nice. Wow.
Great collab!
Good groove. Definitely worth exploring more.
What MtC said. Longer.
Out of the park! Great fun!
Sweet cinematic goodness. Autumn leaves flying as I drive my car a twisty New England road.
simple and very cool
And groove it more certainly does!
Dude! Dude! More!
So very beautiful... can never have too much.
More!
lovely jam
