A moody piece I whipped up while testing the new Live 9 beta.
Basically, two chords (Cmin7, Bmaj7) and some layered noodles.
Still have a busted finger, so the guitar playing is... restricted.
Drones are nothing new. But I decided it was time to seriously explore them.
For those interested in how these things develop. The drone was developed on my looper pedal by layering guitar sounds that were processed by uPOG and Freeze pedals…

Two guitar tracks, lots of effects and some beer.
For the gear heads, the effects list was:
EHX - Freeze
EHX - Memory Man with Hazarai
TC - Hall of Fame Reverb
Digitech - JamMan Stereo
TC/PGS - Trinity Reverb
xotic - EP booster
NI - Guitar Rig 4

Sort of a Tuesday improv...
Built up around a synth texture that I built up with:
Operator->FilterStation->Volcano->Kombinat->Panstation->RP-Delay
(what's the fun in having plugins if you can't abuse them)
A meditation of sorts.
Arose from experimentation with a technique described here

I accidentally started two tracks on alonetone in different tabs. Your track and Movement to Contact's "Coffee with a Little Sugar". Do it :D http://alonetone.com/mtcband/tracks/coffee-with-a-little-sugar-by-norm
A drone + some angry drunken guitar playing.
Trying to capture a feeling...
You have just had a fight/argument with a lover but you're drunk and your feelings are lost in a swimming haze.
Tech details:
Drone is two tracks, volume pedal…
The band had all gone home, and I was left mixing what we had accumulated over the last few months of work on what is to be our "final" album. Things felt over. it seemed like we had reached a saturation point, where we had driven the car as far…
Something I'm working on. I'm a sucker for 5/4 time these days.
The biggest issue is the vocals which are sort of a placeholder right now until I re-write and re-record them, or maybe even find someone who can actually sing to lay something down!
done back in 2006, in my old dreary toronto apartment (i dislike toronto i think).
i don't really like it that much, too repetitive, but i need content up, and others have commented on their enjoyment of this particular song.
Unfortunately, I cannot show the video that accompanies this on here, but I may upload it to youtube and link to it at some point. It is an edited video of a run-through of a haunted house.
Wasting away another weekend with some scales and mode practice on the synthesizers.
all the percussion is from the Juno drum patches and my fingers.
For you folks out there who enjoy the mode stuff this is Phrygian in A
A,Bb(A#),C,D,E,F,G,(A)
I'm human....I bleed. I guess i need to remember that....I'm not superhuman and I won't save the world. The opposite usually occurs...I am swept away in the bleeding of my mind, the bleeding of my heart, my desperate needs and unholy wants…
This is my 3rd home recording. I dug it out again and cleared the moth balls.
"Tart it up a bit" as Sis would say.
I found out that if you rub a strat the wrong way, it will talk back to you. I tried many times to re-create this guitar work…
Comments on mmi's stuff
Tasty!
This is a masterful mix-down of sounds -- serious groovy-ness! Top notch, extraordinary talent!
You're still doing great music, so glad to hear it!
Hey this is pretty cool, totally trips along.
Totally dig! w;-)
sick
lovely
Moody indeed. Serious flares vibes from this. And you got the new live 9 beta :o
Lovely! Great textures! Sorry about the finger
Nice! Dig the effects!
This does have a Sci-fi feel to it. I think it fits right in with Voyager-1 leaving our solar system.
nice, sounds like a sci fi movie intro too. I would remix it...some time
are you using a plastic hose to get that sound? i like it
great
i love this. Have you ever heard of the band Dif Juz? They also use delicate guitar layering. Can't wait to hear your other songs.
Sweet tones...riffs like churchbells.
great open guitar feel. enjoying the layers.

flute + ebow = magic
Yeah, next time I'm in Valles Marineris, Mars I'll definitely be coming to your gigs. Great stuff.
Found some good nuggets in them thar hills.
You've been listening to too much Thom Yorke/Radiohead. Not that there's anything wrong with that :-)
Diggin' it. Spent some time this morning listening to Yo La Tengo and this is fitting right in (hope you're not offended by the comparison).
You may not like this but I think it's a special track.
Magnum opus. Wow.
this just might be scarier without the video. good thing it's the middle of the day here
Wonderful!
Pardon the French but this is fucking awesome!
Perfect addition to my pre-caffeine Monday morning.
One of these days I'm gonna come to the Rock, drink heavily and revel in sounds just like these.
almost perfect for this particular maudlin morning
Glad I stumbled onto this. Great track.
Intense battle or intense hip-hop... Could go either way :-) Minor theory nit. Shouldn't the second note in the scale be Bb?
Wow, that's some special fooling around.
Very very cool. But I didn't have you pegged as a reggae fan. Ya think you know someone... :-)
Holy crap. Glad I didn't listen this last night.
A voice to melt the coldest of hearts.
Thanks for putting this up. 'nuff said.
