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

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.
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.
Comments on mmi's stuff
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...
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.

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.
