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.

I got stuck on a silly little musical phrase, noodling around with it on the piano, unable to let go of it and unable to really develop it into something more.
I recorded myself playing a number of variations as I searched in vain for a deeper…
Made with the Boité Diabolique playing some piano and cello samples. I did a bit of hand editing in Live and then added some light compression, reverb, and limiting.
Once again the source material is a snippet of beautiful piano from [Sudara](http://alonetone.com/sudara) only this time I fed it to a new Reaktor instrument that I am working on call Tukuramu.
Okay so tukuramu does not mean earth-quake but…
I was working on a piano phrase played by Alonetone supremo [Sudara](http://alonetone.com/sudara) (about which, more later).
One of the approaches I took was to load the phrase into the Time Freezer instrument and play it. I kind of got lost…
Started out be an innocent little jazzy study in quartal harmony, but the DL4 was still in my signal path and things went downhill from there! Another done with my beloved '58 Stratotone
An experiment I recorded yesterday with a rig I put together for more or less ambient sounds using two loopers and nearly every effects unit I own. I have no idea who Clark was but he owned the '58 Harmony Stratotone that I used on this cut. His…
This one is live from the cellar last night...Unplugged recorded with one mic..so close your eyes and imagine me here alone on a wet Monday night in Sheffield in the cellar alone as Elvis and Jim had heard about an Happy hour round the corner…
I'm trying to experiment with intentionally combining two different sounds. Since I seem to find this difficult I am starting with using a drone as one of the sounds taking my inspiration from the opening tracks of the Brian Eno & Jah Wobble…

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!

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!

Nice. I listed a pile of times. Apparently I fall into the quite pleasing camp :)
Super cool. I love the dark tension.
There's gold in them thar waves.
Very cool. Took me back to my days of listening to Michael Brook.
Very cool and fruitful sonic mining. Inspiring.
Nice! Had to do some googling while listening to learn about quartal harmony.
you should sell tickets to your soundchecks; I'd pay
Very cool. Be interested in hearing how you connected all the bits.
Really nice. Wow.
Great collab!
Good groove. Definitely worth exploring more.
What MtC said. Longer.
Out of the park! Great fun!
Sweet cinematic goodness. Autumn leaves flying as I drive my car a twisty New England road.
simple and very cool
And groove it more certainly does!
Dude! Dude! More!
So very beautiful... can never have too much.
More!
lovely jam
