Going through the various things I had kicking around before the RPM Challenge and before I upgraded to Live 8, I found this unfinished Live 7 thing...
Frenetic fun.
Boring technical details:
I honestly can't remember much about it which to…
Alternate title: Gratuitous Love Scene
Just hacking around with these chords; added some stuff and before I knew it I had one of those bits of cheesy music that accompanies those gratuitous sex scenes...
One part Guy Richie, one part Cirque du Soleil, the rest a trip down a gypsy campsite.
Played by me almost all acoustically (the only MIDI track was the bass) on my banjo, detuned guitar, recorder, and violin, along with various percussion items.
Another loop - not recorded that well and don't have the time to do much with it, but here it is none the less. The title more or less is a reflection on my life at the moment. Using the same junk I always do...
I'm a complete idiot when it comes to all things midi related. Recently got myself a midi keyboard though and came up with this short piece just messing with sounds in Proteus. Really looking forward to the possibilities of combining this sort…
Hey! You're invading our turf! :-)
Welcome to the wonderful disease that is electronic music. Can't wait for you to find the hybrid you're looking for.
A rather more fundamentally experimental piece with Reichenbach's new *drift* mode. In this mode a probability matrix controls periodic changes in the loop length and/or position.
Once more I am using one of the awesome [Rekkerd mixed bag](http…
Another experiment with Reichenbach, my phase-shited looping ensemble for Reaktor 5. This time I fed it a sample from the [Rekkerd.org](http://rekkerd.org/downloads/) mixed bag selection #2 called `106_sandylines_01.wav`.
I let the sample play…
Our sun is in a long, cool, quiet period right now. But average ocean temps are the highest ever, and polar ice and glaciers are melting at an alarming rate. Something is going on here.
A friend sent me a loop he made on Reason, and I added a 2nd bass track and about 4 vocal tracks in various stages of aural legibility.
In the song I try to give a friend advice about how to stop his spiral downward. Starting with practical…
This is a track I've been working on for quite a while so I am glad to finally have it out of my head.
I have a kind of love/hate relationship with time and its humble functionary, the clock. Ticking, in particular, is something I am ambivalent…
This track is the result of putting Kavin's excellent track [Propitiation](http://alonetone.com/kavin/tracks/propitiation) through my Steve Reich style phased looper.
It's a beautiful piece but also quite a sparse sound which lead me to think…
A little background to that comment perhaps... recently went to a seminar on recording acoustic guitar and I was struck by how difficult it is to get a decent sound and how even that decent sound pales in comparison to the live take. Thus, wish I was there to hear it in person.

53XY!
I agree with what sandbags said before me. Its quite awesome :)
This is perfect Sunday morning music, ethereal, floaty, lovely.
:)
GluMMI makes me happy. This has such a great hook - the vocalisations are such a wonderful touch. Really works, guys.
damn i'm liking this man, this is good
hello e-bowed guitars, meet the didgeridoo and tabla!
I could get lost in this one all day, and the mix sounds even better in cans!
Yes! Very nice!
OOO, this is nice!
damn, this is touching. more of the same please!
aptly named. i love the 303 squelch. - @ahonoe
Lovely and ploppy!
I don't know what you've captured here, but it's out of this world powerful, emotive, and it digs deep. Wish I could fave it again.
This has a really good thud to it! Great synth sounds.
Okay, I'm inspired!
Wow, love the space in this and that meaty synth!
Very gratuitous, perfect.
Gives me images of someone gracefully falling up a very long flight or stairs.
Great forboding energy...another powerful track. You capture human insecurities and put them to cool beats.

Like this a lot.
Very evocative (though I'm not sure I'm hearing the Guy Ritchie :-)
Lovely track.
Diggin' it. Love the Fripp style lead line.
Awesome track. Thanks for reminding me how little I'm looking forward to my next trip to an airport. :-)
Very evocative piece. The change of gears is wonderfully unsettling.

More coolness. Something that rewards repeated listens.
Very very cool.
No it's not. Nothing going on here. FoxNews says so. :-) But seriously cool track.
Boy, good thing I can spell.
Beatiful.
Stellar opening. Followed by me swooning over the guitar sounds.
I really like the sound you've got going on here.
Reached out of the machine and grabbed me. Like when that happens.
Bravo! I found myself startled by some of the clocks and looking to the side. Mission well executed.
Very nice. I particularly love the "I care but I don't care" section.
I think this one worked out really well. A definite grower.

Awesome recording. Wish I was in the room though.
