Dedicated to all musicians who get asked "what do expect to get from making music?"

The single coil sound of my new used PRS guitar just got me in the funk. Had this partial riff on a Sony walkman from 10 years ago, decided to fill it out a little.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely.... Lyrics: One cloudless night, freedom's candle was snuffed Kicked and punched, gagged and cuffed They took him away, for what he's not Then cracked his skull, as a gesture for his…

They discovered a planet that has no star Maybe they'll let me name it whoever they are I know all about a planet without a star Oh, please let me name it. I know all about it. A planet. No orbit. Just lost out in space No hope or habit…

Greg Connor added his amazing harp to the song. It really adds depth to it. I love Greg's playing on the song. Thanks so much, Greg! This is why Alonetone is great. Lyrics & Music by Nick Plagakis I count my blessings…

A collab with LJ. You may have heard it with a Burnley accent. This is a softer version.

Written at Northeast Broadcasting School as an experiment in replacing recorded sounds with samples. It was played pretty much as is by Prime Meridian in about '99 or '00 or so. It was heavily reworked and played by Break Even from '03-'05 and…

Autumn in D minor (Instrumental)

I was going to release my songs in chronological order but decided to skip around instead. This one is a piece that revolves around a piano melody and adds percussion, organ, and mechanical beats. I had fun with this one and I hope you will find…

Ok, let's kick it into gear...

And her eyes DID shine like diamonds.....

I wanted to start by posting my very first track, which I composed on FL Studio, several years ago. Being my first track, it is not my best production- wise, yet it still embodies my main style on the tracks that follow - which is intense buildup…
