Saw an add on TV for something called "Drag Me To Hell". Dunno what it is with horror films, but apparently scary music is on my mind. Thanks for helping exorcise it.
The guitar part, btw, is e-bow plus slide so any tonality is an accident.
I would be wigged if I listened to this alone at night... on headphone, especially while slightly intoxicated.... the evil ebow in this = machines screaming in agony. I Love the rhythmic bleeps and bloops that carry the song along.

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…

Great feel to this! Sounds like electric guitar music from west africa, completely slowed down and shoved underwater. Very soothing and pleasant to listen to.

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…

Took sandbags' [Rytme Shifter 1](http://alonetone.com/sandbags/tracks/rytme-shifter-1) and added my special brand of guitar incompetence.
I bought myself an E-Bow this week and this track was just perfect for playing around. After a day of wankery…

Had a guitar lesson today. Jammed on some chords. The chords happen to be the same as (or similar to) those in Jimi Hendrix's Hey Joe. We just chose them randomly as a basis for experimentation with different voicings.

Well, song 10 finally. A bit on the heavy side, some odd FX, strange vox, an Ibanez, The ever present harmonica, and some help from Illegal Alien Autopsy.
This was the first song I tracked for RPM. But, since my pen has run out of ink this month…
Written and Recorded: Feb 21, 2010
Details: Epiphone Les Paul (DADGBE - Capo II), Seymour Duncan Pickups, POD XT, Boss RC-20 Looper, Audacity...all fingers, no picks.
one of those 'it was written even before i started' songs that just rolls out like magic
i tried to keep it simple so as not to destroy the vibe
first finished (if unmixed) track for RPM 2010
This started as a simple piano piece from Osckilo, I took that as a beginning point and added the rest (synth, guitar, drums from Boss microBR), turning it into a prog-rock instrumental.

I wanted to play more directly with noise of various kinds so this piece focuses less on techniques and fancy plugins and more on selection & arrangement of sounds.
I spent many hours going through Reaktor ensembles I've downloaded searching…
Happy Valentine's Day Everyone.
I think this song has grown on me in the last few
days. I'm diggin' it. I hope you all do too. I
wanted to hurry up and get the demo out for
Valentine's Day. Finished at 3:05am. Wha whoooo!
I need to…
Another collaboration between me and guitarist Kerry Hoke. Kerry provided me with four guitar loops. I arranged the loops, added some effects, played a sampled upright bass, programmed some drums, and blended it all together.
My first upload for the 2010 RPM Challenge! I wanted to make a mean-sounding, minimal, instrumental groove track, and this is what I came up with. I tried a bunch of different bass lines, but they all made it sound too busy.

Disquieting soundscape.
ghost in the machine! love it!
ebow+slide=scary Love it.
I think that e-bow may have pushed you over the edge :)
giving this one yet an even closer listen... I close my eyes and go somewhere far away from here. Thanks! Magic, indeed.
Sounds like the soundtrack to a modern Western! Very cool, intriguing sounds! Love that rhythm!
WOW- what a nice track man!! Great job
reminds me slightly of The Doors... "this is the end... my only friend, the end" :) nice guitar work! really digging the rhythms too!
Great feel to this! Sounds like electric guitar music from west africa, completely slowed down and shoved underwater. Very soothing and pleasant to listen to.
I love the sound you've created here.
This one's right up my alley. I haven't listened to all your stuff, but this is the best yet. Goood!
Let it all go. Love it!
I like the mood you create on this one- Nice stuff!!
thick and lush!
perfect. love the e-bow action. I want one too! goes perfectly with the gates stuff.
Beauty in subtlety. Good job. I'm going ebow real soon.
Very very cool, i love it!
love it love it love it
Wow, starts as one thing and evolves in to something else entirely. Great journey! Looking forward to hearing more of your coolly-titled experiments!

Really digging this.
Just too good.
That's an awesome sound! Raised the bar for sure.
My heart melts.
Definitely like this direction.
Inspiring for sure.
Magic indeed. Awesome.
Bravo!
Hot anthemic goodness.
Progtronica! Yes!
Ever impressive.
Well done. Very retro cool.
Fun stuff. Love the banjo.
Awesome groove. Builds a little like that the theme tune from a Guy Ritchie film.
Crunchy!
Awesome; all you need now is a Barry White stand-in :-)
Groovus interruptus!
loving the dark groove
Really nice flow you've developed across your RPM tracks. Coming along very very nicely.
Holy crap. What a build. Beautiful and inspiring (makes me really glad that I've started playing guitar myself).
