Today I gave a quickie demo of Live to my guitar instructor. I started with an empty set and threw some crap at the wall just to show him one of the work flows.
Later, when I brought the thing home I couldn't leave well enough alone and started…
A long meditation/wank.
This weeks guitar lesson we started looking at melodic minor modes. I went home and started practicing scales. Wasn't long before I got stuck on Dorian flat 2. So I fired up the looper and recorded a session.
Funny…

Sitting in the sunroom on this cool autumn day, listening to this dancing about the sound of my windchimes... Wow, almost eerie. Something's going to happen today.

This inspired me to hit the books again and read up on things that have cobwebs on them in my head. Somehow this lead me to checking out a tutorial on how to play Billy Joel's Piano Man...this in turn led to playing with the f blues scale in ravensguide...which turned into a kikass song..so I think. Kinda jazzy blues..with funk thrown in. I'll finish it later and upload it..thanks for the inspiration.

An experiment that became a meditation.
Two tracks. One guitar, one looper, one e-bow, two tracks and a touch of Live's Overdrive effect on the second e-bow track.
The starting premise was could I get the sound of many guitars by continually…

I'm better at using my pots and pans for music than for food, so I post this tune in hunger. 3 pots, 1 pan, and a tabla.
"i'm just a gangsta in the jungle" recorded in the amazon. It's actually a part of a monologue that I will likely never post…
First draft.
Dedicated to my mother on her birthday.
In the outro: Trombone, Horns, Clarinets, Mouthpiece buzz by Andy Hentz (arrsuarez) and organic drum related sounds by Glu.
My evening challenge: compose and record a piece in an evening. Song titles will reflect the time of day when the day's light slips into the darkness of night.
After yesterdays experiment with noise gates and vocal transformers I thought I'd have another go using Rytme as the source material.
A single Rytme track with multiple playheads is playing into a Logic channel containing Kore playing the Absynth…
So one too many coffee's and I have insomnia, I decided to mess about with my prototype sequencer Rytme and one of the Logic piano presets (Piano Motion).
I came up with this piece (in the key of A Major) which is rather repetitive (a quality…
This track makes me strangely uneasy. Because of a hiccup cure that involves saying "now" at the exact time you're about to hiccup. Concentrate hard enough on the task, your hiccups will just stop, leaving you a little on edge (still expecting a hiccup)...
So I hear your track saying "now" and I get that same on edge feeling. Creepy. And weird.
I'm working on a March RPM... it is "record per month" after all, is it not? So, this month I plan to expand on some ideas with glubotic... I hope to make the album a full hour.
2009 Record Production Month Challenge offering. Very pleased with the collective results. The title came from my friend Zane. His iced tea was in a damaged cup. Thus the title. There are various quotes in the song including some from Mishima…
02 – Falling Down Again. Written 17th/18th Feb. Recorded 17th/18th/19th Feb.
A slightly schizophrenic pop song, with a vocal section that also betrays me wanting to be a Beach Boy. Worryingly there is actually a red sticky trickle that seeps…
Comments on mmi's stuff
love the beat and shifting whoosh noises
I feel the sun shining even though it's dark out.

Totally hypnotic.
Great stuff man! Your clean guitar sounds are just crystalline!
Uncle Paul says this is excellent! I appreciate you posting the scale. I like the Dorian mode and never considered a flat 2nd. powering up the Roland.
lovely! I hope you make more 10+ minute tunes.. perfect for reading/zoning out
damn. alonetone needs a song looping function. I'd keep this on all night!
Calm
I like this a lot.
Damn, I'm missing out.
Great fun wank there!
so what did the guitar teacher say?
That was rather fun :)
wankin' rhythms ye have there matey. There should be more that one Wednesday a week for wanking.
Nice chord study. Like the pace and atmosphere.
I still get perfectly lost in this one.
nice swirly pads and crisp lead. like it dood
Dreamy and beautiful. Very enjoyable. Adding this to mix Alonetone playlist.

Just keeps getting better and better.
Beautiful. Just the sort of thing my wife secretly wishes I was capable of writing for her.
Wow. Surely a nominee for the Groovemeisterschaft der Welt ;-)
Wow. Just wow.
I think that room and the laptop mic add something that you might have lost in a more formal recording environment. Well done.
Blown away. I fear what you will do with an e-bow :-)
You've hit on something special here.
Very very cool. I think you're definitely on to something.

So hot and so chill.
Squaaaaawk! Screeeech! Whoomp-whoomp-whoomp.
Oh yeah, now we're soldering.
I've wet myself
Wow.
Heh, I love these "throw-away" warmup treasures. Awesome.
Hot squishy (gluey?) goodness. The modulation (at around 0:50) caught me off-balance. Nice surprise.
laughing my ass off! Brilliant!
Love the Fripp guitar sound. Schwiiiing!
Brilliant.
Lighting up and powering my morning!
