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…

A late night meditation.
Here's the process:
Started just auditioning sounds in my Live library. When I do this, I play some random chords or two note intervals; often not looking at my hands or the keyboard. That's the spark. Here I started…

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
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!

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!
