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.
A meditation of sorts.
Arose from experimentation with a technique described here

This is a single take with a bunch of reverb added after the fact in Reaper (also an experiment…
Three hours.
No plan.
Halloween.
Thirteen tracks.
Dark but not dark.
Toys used:
Synths: FM8, Massive, Absynth
Guitar: GT-10, Timeless 2, Volcano 2, Eos, BigSeq2
Each time I sit down to learn something about Logic, I end up getting distracted and creating some kind of track...
This one uses EFM1 -> Delay Designer -> Live Cut
Some drums through similar craziness
and finally me playing some pads and…
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
like spinning wheels moving in sympathetic patterns...shifting constantly in jerking motions
sproingy mess, like an exploded machine...very haunted too, saturated and claustrophobic.
Fantastic… where are you?
This is very meditative and cool. Seriously beautiful - wow, I would love to sing to it (I actually am while I'm listening).
Nice. Atmospheric.
Very good
Great atmo in this one!
I see waterfalls and landslides...
sweet
Amazing! Really pulls you in
beautiful work.
Very cool!
Hells to the yes! I didn't know that cerebral convulsive melody was represented on alonetone.com! I need more of this in my life
Very cool!
that's pretty fricken incredible....
Nice sounds
Dig! A groovy funk. I like the ambiance, the beat, the attack. You done good. Rock on!
This is sweet!
Totally dig this number. The effect eats me up. Dig that beat! It's all juicy, man -- Rock on!
Le sigh.

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!
