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.
After an adventure in re-recording the entire song down a third, we came back to the original, tightened and tuned.
Always the self flagellating perfectionist, it still needs a bit more love. Always the pragmatist, it is probably done for now.
24 hour EP more than 24 hours late. I was going to title it "Perpetual Interruptions EP" but I went for something more positive. Due to weird bug in some part of my set up, there is a kick drum in only one side of the stereo for the first few…
24 hours of music making for 2008.
Yup. This is a "Gaiman variation" which means that I stopped at 24 hours and this is what I've got. Not 24 min, but it is a "Noble Failure"
You can see my 2007 album [here](http://alonetone.com/sudara…
Epic journey. Plenty weird. DIg it. I particularly like the Glass-ian opening in Time. And the bonus track comes to shake you out of the dream. Evil genius.
Here is my practice run, 1/12 of the 24hour album. 2 minutes of music in two hours. This track was fun to make. I started with the acoustic guitar, added the bass, then the beat. To get a particular sound that I had in mind, I did a little beat…
This is the first cover song I've ever really recorded in my 15 years of playing and recording.
The guitar and voice are each full continuous takes, I didn't want to do comping (copy and pasting), though the vocal harmony parts were done in…
one of the oldest songs MNCC's ever recorded. It's mostly bass and homemade drums plus a prerecorded beat. And lyrics about the consequences of forbidden love.
about a circus that self destructs and the damage left in it's wake. Yes, it's a weird and/or dark subject but as the lyrics are unintelligible it probably won't upset anybody.
I'm not quite sure where I was going with this. I love the Abaska Bong sound and was trying to pair it with something complementary. After going through some truly weird combinations I came up with this.
A further march down the road in acl's evolution - and one of the many directions we've been dying to get to... it's, ummm, water-y. (And this song is especially dedicated to J Wentz.)

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.

Beauty. Is that some vocoder action I hear? Whatever it is, it's really cool.
This is really wonderful. I think that the tempi changes really add something special.
You know, I thought the technical difficulties were just artistic decisions. And good ones. Inspired.
You win.
too funny

A fabulous eclectic trick. You're all over the place man! It's awesome.
This is really awesome. I feel like killing myself now :-)
A true opus.
Very nice work (I've been a closet new-age fan for like 20 years, terribly sorry if the genre label offends).
Very well done!
Stunning.
Love it. But too short! Need my Boards of Canada fix.
Dude. Stunning. I wish Iron & Wine's CDs were recorded this well.
Love it!
Cool track. I'm really liking your vox processing.
Charming lunacy.
Man I love this stuff.
Sweetly played. Definitely not cheesy.
You had me at the piano intro. It just got better from there. The first piece of music I listened to today. What a great start to the day.
