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.

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.

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?

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!

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.
