This demo recording turned out particularly well, especially when compared to how most of my MYTHOPOETICA recordings sound. The lead guitar employs an Eastern Folk scale and style of picking, greased with GEM-style Blues butter.
SUPER YOU…

Psychedelic Folk. Ever meet that special someone in a laundromat? Ever do it on top the dryer? Either way, you’re sure to dig this clean groove. Compilation by Stephen L. Krell and Gene Eric Mann.
One of my favorite recordings and favorite songs. The drums of this Political Folk tune was generated with the Yamaha E313. The lead guitar break needs replaced with a violin, but…
THE FINAL HOUR
Welcome to the final hour
Everybody kneel…
Another Psychedelic Sea Shanty. This one follows a Fox Trot beat. I didn’t have a mic screen when I recorded the vocal tracks – my voice is piercing at moments. Hope you are nonetheless able to enjoy the mix-down. Pan flute by Starry Nightmoth…
This song is really intriguing. A who done it sort of tale. I love the line that Poor Old Admiral Smith....he's not with! Really make a person try to hear the lyrics that follow just to find out exactly what went down! Amazing how so much of a story forms by the end!
A Sea Shanty with a bit of Psychedelic seasoning. Guest artist Starry Nightmoth performs the “harmonica” on a Yamaha KB as the song fades out.
37 SAILS
Thirty-seven sails be a full rigged ship
Open up ye hatch and pour ye spirit down…
Really cool song! The theme and melody are really memorable. The riff with the fife/synth is really cool. I like the other synth sounds too. Like seagulls circling a ship at points!Also the strumming is really rich and full! Great way to start the day!

One of my better Psych Folk recordings. Intro voice and keyboards by Starry Nightmoth. BG rhythm/drums generated using a Yamaha E313 KB. Lyrics, music and all other instruments and vocals are my fault.

Not an overall bad recording, and I’m quite pleased with the lyrics of this Psychedelic Folk tune.
FUTURE BOUND
Should I take the left or should I pass it by zoom?
Lost my faith in maps, so how will I decide zoom?
Spirits crying to be…
Thanks for your kind comments! I've been listening through your stuff, I'm amazed with how much material you have, you seem to pull riffs out of thin air! Good use of sound fx for storytelling :)
JUMPSUIT BLUES
As I slept this morning,
I dreamed of what you said
How you said you loved me,
And from my toes to head
Then I woke to Chow Call,
Prison walls around my bed
‘Morning to you, Jesus!
How did you sleep last night…

Crumbs - this is good... Listening on headphones, wondering whether I've been drinking or not.
Started out as very relaxing - slightly disturbing after a while! lol
The thunder and rain came as a welcome release of the tension.
Really well put together.
This is the first time I have played in drop D
this is a Springsteen song that he borrowed the title from a Pete Seeger song..and I like the way Warren Haynes plays it live...so here is my humble attempt at it...
Ooohhh I looooove me some Drop D slip'n'slide Blues! D is for Darkness, and I’ll take Dark Blues over Sky Blues anytime. Ya done good, my man – I hope this isn’t the last time you explore the world of Drop D – most of my songs, especially my Blues, are done in this tuning. It speaks to me. It’d Deep! ;) Rock on!
The idea for the lyrics came from a teaching from a Buddhist monk in Internet, saying pretty much what goes in the title: the only contest worth being in is a happiness contest. To that, I tried to add some cheering lyrics with the usual themes…
This song is the concluding song on my RPM Challenge February album. It is a good-bye to the project.

Not a good-bye to Alonetone
or anything else.
SEE YA
It has been a lot of fun
Listening to…
If you'd been putting out songs like this in the late '50s and early '60s, during the "British Invasion," and when the market was wide-open, you'd been at least as rich and famous as Eric Burdon of the Animals. You're a master at this style. I love it!
I see in color,
Even when, the words, black and white
I hear in flutters,
Even when, the words come in trite.
After all,
I'm tied to this anchor.
I'm tied to this hull.
Tied to this deck, through the night.
I better get to climbing…
I wrote this song while out hiking some awesome trails in Zion National Park... gave me some excellent inspiration. I also tried some different stuff with the mixing and using my keyboard... so trying to push a few of my envelopes...
Here…
The effects on the voice is particularly cool in this mix down -- just how I would imagine an android would sound, although I must concur with Mark -- not "too" sexy... just sexy enough! :P ;)
I woke up this morning and looked out the window at all of the snow. The endless landscape of blank, frozen emptiness, and I just felt sick. I wanted nothing more than to go back to bed and sleep until May. So what did I do to combat this depression…
The guitar work out in this one is particularly tasty. Intriguing topic. "Hiding from the white" -- for real! Keep it real, Man. The drums and bass and lead guitar and rhythm and chord arrangement and vocals and mix down and mastering -- all of it ROCKS!
The accapella, which I added into this song was very nice resembling the voice of Björk, but unfortunately the original pella was so out of tune, that I had to use autotune to make it fit properly, and I hate using autotune and hearing it. So…
Thanks to this addition by Roger "Dodger" M. Harris, we now have nearly 24 minutes worth of android music on the "How to Assemble Your Android" playlist!
Gorgeous. lovely performance, timely executed, carefully delivered with a tasteful caressing of the ivory. A fabulous composition, moving, touching, reaching beneath the skin for the heart and soul.
RPM 2015 Feb. 18 update: I cut a new vocal for this one which is an improvement, but this mix is still not right. Dunno if I'll have time to fix it before the deadline... (This is the full length track as opposed to the truncated version with…
KAWEAH (says the crow)
"Kaweah, Kaweah"
There's a place on up the hill
Redwood trees are standing still
The murmur of the river will invite you
Lay your head down on a rock
You'll forget about the clock
The whisper of the sun will…
Comments on Gene Eric Mann's stuff
Thanks for always being so wonderful Gene! May you smile on us and enjoy the music of the Gods!
Goodbye, Gene. Thanks for all the listens and constructive comments.
Working my way back on your music catalog. this is fantastic. trippy washed guitars and the lyrics are spot on.
Nice twist on the Beatles classic... very interesting. I like it!
Clever! I think a lot of work went into this one. Thanks for your comment on my song. Paul
I woke up thinking about this song. I had to come and take another listen. It's the only *WASHING MACHINE* song I know of.
Outputy! loving this..
Just discovered this one in the mix.... wow!!!! What a beautiful song and amazing arrangement.

Strange...in a good way. Some mid PF studio output work right there.
You Rock my dear friend!!♥
Lovin it!

Hey Gene, love the sound and the songs ,ya did a great job, hope you got our private message, we're new at this ,, Jack & Cindy
I'm totally digging this! It reminds me of old Barrett-era Pink Floyd.
Yup... I'm a sucker for Eastern influence :)
Amazing lyrics!!!!
I love this track, it gets better every time I hear it......

Neat -- everything is neat; vocals, bass, drums, lyrics... Rock on!
Now that I get it -- VERY COOL! Glad to know you're not leaving the AloneTone family. Keep it real!
Sweet, lovely one.
I really enjoyed the lyrics. Again, that classic Harris style in the music that I for one so appreciate. My soul-mate digs it too.
Groovy! Fun beat!

Brilliant, thoughtful, intriguing lyrics, Sweet vocals. Pleasant strumming technique.
It actually reminds me of some of what I experienced when I got to visit the Serengeti! Cool music, lyrics, and vocals.

The vocals and guitar I dig most.

Clever lyrics, musical melancholia, pleasant vocals. Thanks for joining the party. I'll add this to the playlist right now.
Gorgeous. lovely performance, timely executed, carefully delivered with a tasteful caressing of the ivory. A fabulous composition, moving, touching, reaching beneath the skin for the heart and soul.
If John was still with us, he would have wished he wrote this one.
Much of this, for me, strongly echoes the spirit of a young Neil Young.
Prachtig!
Gorgeous! Uw lied is mijn vreugde!
Dit is een prachtig lied! Fabulous! Goed werk! [This is a beautiful song! Fabulous! Great job!]
