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…
Wow, reminds me of Opeth. Your stuff is very good. Never heard anything quite like it :). Oh BTW yes our singer is for real...he has an 8 octave range :).

Another experiment.
Today Eos was released. In trying it out, I found 7 random synth clips in my library (not entirely random but they might as well have been). These are fed for somewhat random durations and order through 4 Eos reverbs in…

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...
ha, ha, i always wondered what that music sounded like. i get more of like the spirit of roger waters drifting across the atlantic with thorazine & haldol in either pocket moaning "ave maria, ave maria", on his way to see "the last of the mohicans" but overall effective.
Sometimes magic happens. Sometimes it even happens to me.
Open D tuning (low to high D A D G A D). Just a practice session where I had the guts to press record.
No drugs. Just beer with dinner. Maybe they put something in the creme brule…

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…

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
I'm glad you decided to release this anyway because it's lovely. I'm getting used to being eased into my day by a new track from you. Keep it up! :)
Nice chords! :) Really like the progression. Nice rhythm track too.
Wow, reminds me of Opeth. Your stuff is very good. Never heard anything quite like it :). Oh BTW yes our singer is for real...he has an 8 octave range :).
Delicious?
Fav'd within the first minute! I must re explore that tuning- been ages since I've played in it. Lovely stuff
Nice playing and it sounds fantastic
A nice way to slide into Monday morning.
Eos sounds nice. This is another one that makes me want to get under the covers with the kittehz and hide my eyes! frightone.com!
Very beautiful...
Have to give you much kudos for working out how to make 4 reverbs sound good :)

mmi, very atmospheric. sets a hypnotic mood. great tool for seducing women. 2 glasses of wine & 1 - 3:33/min of "opened".
Love the dreamy quality and the use of BigSeq2. How did you come up with the notion of using 4 Eos in series?
Awesome stuff. I love those ebow lines
Love the mix of dreamy haunting notes against the choppy rhythm.
i love layered guitars...
okay... you inspired the next compilation playlist with this one. More details this weekend.
mmi you are the alonetone ambient connoisseur
Like it.
Can't figure out how I didn't favourite this one first time around, it's lovely!

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.
