A one hour track start to finish - words music and all the faffing around at the end to get the levels right. It's a ghost story. So go get your cocoa now! And a Murder ballad and a love story (but aren't they all). Old Conor Higgins…

I'm learning to play piano and my teacher has given me 'Old Joe Clarkes Boogie' to play. For 2 weeks it has kicked my ass. But I'm getting to grips with it now and this is my revenge! The musical parts were recording using my Kurzweil SP3X…

About doing the right thing even when it's hard. The hole in the wall is a metaphor. Seriously, don't think too hard about it.

Vox by the computer, singing about the duality of humankind.

Well, this one is b***s to the wall rock and roll, gfox style. ;P I just wanted to do this basic loud chunka-chunka riff with the thumping kick-drum. However, the refrain (this song has no chorus) was something that I really liked singing. For…

I worked on this one off and on through '05 and '06. I did numerous demos of it (just me and an acoustic) before finally recording it proper. Originally I intended it as a slower, more ethereal (read:reverby) piece, but it just wasn't cutting…

This song is one that got left on the cutting room floor back in early 2005. It's fun to play, but the drums are almost too mechanical (they're real) for my taste. I thought I would finally let it out of the attic, even though it doesn't have…

Had the chorus idea floating in my head for a number of years, but never had the inspiration to do anything with it. Then a friend died and this song came out of me staring out the window in the cold of January 2005 wondering what the hell to…

My first new song on Alonetone in over a year! A short, simple surf tune, nothing more.

A better mix. I pumped up the trumpet, bass and guitar. It was just annoyingly low. Thanks again to Benny for the trumpet parts.

When in love.

I made this song in a day. The vague simplistic lyrics are about a struggle between want and must.

I decided to focus by timeboxing the amount of time I spent on drums, bass and lead into 30 min sections based on the pomodoro technique. The idea was to spend 5 mins picking the sound for each part, then 25 mins making some loops with it to arrange…

written, recorded, and poorly mixed in one hour. Instrumentation: acoustic guitar, fretless bass, 2 tablas, tambourine, rattle, and human body for snapping, clapping, and vocals.

just a theme

Just had to do it:)
