Another track without a plan. I was supposed to be doing something else, but I was stalling...
Electronically, I used only Ableton instruments on this one in the effects stew I used Eos, Replicant, BigSeq2, and LiveCut in addition to the Live…
first thank for your comments and supertramp allusions... mostly lost on me although I do recall enjoying them some years or decades ago.... and second, what a nice crunchy delay chopped and floated groove this is...

Go Go Go! We should invent a new word for these kind of collaborations. Maybe "hand-offs" or "tag-team" or hrm...I basically got to sit back and watch the tune become awesomer without lifting a finger. Win! I'll try and think up a good word. Nice job.
A 30 minute track (creation time).
Went for dinner with friends that were having trouble getting along.
They were in my thoughts whilst I put this together.
Sudara mentioned yesterday that the new Logic had super cool guitar stuff. This is me checking it out.
Two guitar tracks, using just the double phaser, simple amp model and an insane space designer preset.
Used one of the mastering presets…
Another song in the key of Glu.
I know I called the theme was [glubot for a day](http://alonetone.com/forums/togethertone/topics/glubot-for-a-day).
Maybe glubot for a week?

A quasi-ambient experiment with the Hypercyclic plugin.
I don't know if it's tacky to listen to your own stuff but I actually do listen to this one a lot.
dude, i listen to the songs i've written until i don't even understand them anymore. sometimes other people's music is just a way to cleanse my palate.
this song is awesome. it's the type of noise you can listen to just for the actual sound that is being made and to pick out the rhythms. i know this is probably an obvious statement, but this would make great music for a video game..maybe end credits schmup or menu music for a sci-fi rpg.
This has been something that has been struggling to get out for a while. I finally feel comfortable enough playing it to have pressed record...
Boring technical details:
DADGAD tuning
two improvised tracks, GT-10 Studio Acoustic Guitar preset…

not tacky to listen to your own stuff at all. You kinda have to anyway if you are still working on it. Even if that's not the case, nothing wrong with enjoying your own music. I don't think I have listened to this one yet myself.
I like the key changes. And what's the Hypercyclic plugin?
This would be challenging to add guitar or something to.
Well, song 10 finally. A bit on the heavy side, some odd FX, strange vox, an Ibanez, The ever present harmonica, and some help from Illegal Alien Autopsy.
This was the first song I tracked for RPM. But, since my pen has run out of ink this month…
Written and Recorded: Feb 21, 2010
Details: Epiphone Les Paul (DADGBE - Capo II), Seymour Duncan Pickups, POD XT, Boss RC-20 Looper, Audacity...all fingers, no picks.
one of those 'it was written even before i started' songs that just rolls out like magic
i tried to keep it simple so as not to destroy the vibe
first finished (if unmixed) track for RPM 2010
This started as a simple piano piece from Osckilo, I took that as a beginning point and added the rest (synth, guitar, drums from Boss microBR), turning it into a prog-rock instrumental.

I wanted to play more directly with noise of various kinds so this piece focuses less on techniques and fancy plugins and more on selection & arrangement of sounds.
I spent many hours going through Reaktor ensembles I've downloaded searching…
Happy Valentine's Day Everyone.
I think this song has grown on me in the last few
days. I'm diggin' it. I hope you all do too. I
wanted to hurry up and get the demo out for
Valentine's Day. Finished at 3:05am. Wha whoooo!
I need to…
Another collaboration between me and guitarist Kerry Hoke. Kerry provided me with four guitar loops. I arranged the loops, added some effects, played a sampled upright bass, programmed some drums, and blended it all together.
My first upload for the 2010 RPM Challenge! I wanted to make a mean-sounding, minimal, instrumental groove track, and this is what I came up with. I tried a bunch of different bass lines, but they all made it sound too busy.

The heart of this is pure feel great pop! Love it!
VERY VERY cool. 11 minutes of awesomeness deserve more than this trite comment. For now, I'll just say: captivating mood. kudos
What ominous sounding toys you have. I like the way it lightens up before the 5 minute mark
Forboding. What creepy flowers you grow.

Great collab! Love the additions!
Very cool addition! Like it mucho
arse kickin' mix. love the new sounds
nice
This is great! Yeah logic is pretty sweet. Been using it for a while now.
idolatry! what movement will the GLU lead us in? I will follow. The singularity is here. HAHA!
I've only scratched the surface of Logic's gtr fx , but you gave me the itch again. Very nice!
What a lush sound! More of this please. It's the perfect soundtrack to my rainy day.
Wow! Super guitar sounds

yay dadgad!!!111 it sounds like you know your way around the fretboard in the tuning.
Beautifully played. DADGAD tuning ===> is that drop d tuning?

Great track! Everything fuses perfectly.

Really digging this.
Just too good.
That's an awesome sound! Raised the bar for sure.
My heart melts.
Definitely like this direction.
Inspiring for sure.
Magic indeed. Awesome.
Bravo!
Hot anthemic goodness.
Progtronica! Yes!
Ever impressive.
Well done. Very retro cool.
Fun stuff. Love the banjo.
Awesome groove. Builds a little like that the theme tune from a Guy Ritchie film.
Crunchy!
Awesome; all you need now is a Barry White stand-in :-)
Groovus interruptus!
loving the dark groove
Really nice flow you've developed across your RPM tracks. Coming along very very nicely.
Holy crap. What a build. Beautiful and inspiring (makes me really glad that I've started playing guitar myself).
