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…

Helplessly
But then sometimes in the colorless light of a hazy windy moonlit night, the feeling haunts you like you've known that you would always be alone.
But then sometimes in the sparkling sun, you think of things you should have done…
An experiment in using [Photosounder](http://photosounder.com/) which is a spectral editing tool.
This track started as a sharp tin can hit which I turned into a droning gong. But I had no idea where to go next.
So I started rifling through…
Like CS said, VERY COOL. And I don't have a clue what you're talking about in your description (probably cause I'm old and unhip).
Inspired me to make some odd guitar noises too.
I swore that I would NEVER upload this. Was having a bad day trying to loop "nice" acoustic guitar sounds and got frustrated so grabbed my Taylor and plugged it into a cheesy Effects box and straight into the looper. Started twiddling knobs and…
Written and Recorded: September 19-20, 2010
Details: Epiphone Les Paul (EBEGAD, Capo III), Seymour Duncan Pickups, POD XT, Boss RC-20 Looper, EBow, Audacity.
Ok, I have decided to put it here. It is a stretch containing several ideas, it falls apart here and there (especially at 3:10), but I think the atmosphere shines through.
Hope I can return to it in a couple of weeks (when my head is clear…
I happened to be in MD one summer when the 17 year cicadas came out to make their noise. Walking around I felt I was on the set of an old sci-fi flick set on an alien planet.
This brought me back.
So Far to Get
Fire on the look-out
he's got me shakin'
Watch me blow it now.
Fire on the lookout,
It's got me changing
what, me worry now?

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!

holy crap; chance discovery (for me) teh awesome!
A special collection you have here. Somehow I just discovered it. Duh.
Quietly inspiring. Bravo.
Very interesting. I'd be interested to hear more about your approach.
Smacked this right out of the park!
mmmmmmmmmmm mmmm mmmmmmm like
Beautiful and moody. Just the way I like it.
haha, wicked indeed. And fun.
Masterful work.
If this is mediocre, I fear your best.
good fun!
Wow! Very nice indeed.
two capos? need pictures. The track? Inspiring as always.
Some cheese is very tasty. :-)
Dude, sweet!

I love the way you captured that 80s guitar/bass sound that I loved so much in early Cure/Joy Division/New Order. Makes me swoon.
