The unsuccessful RPM Challenge in 2009 had two songs that weren't disgustingly bad. I uploaded a version of one the other day. This is the other. Nothing really noteworthy here. I had a new harmony on the first chorus that I during the mix…

It's getting silly now. I haven't finished Quarantine Tunes Volume 5 (actually, volume 50/90) and here I am uploading the first song for Volume 6. What a moron! I am scraping the bottom of the barrel as far as the quality of songs to be re…

I forgot about voice memos until Kavin did one. So here I take a snippet of Shane's synth idea and let Apple provide the backing.

Second OP-1 track. Very much an experiment and practice, but I'll keep uploading them to keep a record, and force myself to be as thorough as I can.

For the Sound-In event Cold Rain and Snow.. Pray for our power grid

Well this one goes straight to the garbage pile. It's not the worst song of the month but I would be pretty happy if I never heard it again as long as I live. Unfortunately I have to hit 29:09 to qualify for National Solo Album Month and…

UnCaged: 33'4'' - it's a piece we've recently recorded for the French label, Camembert Électrique, to be released on a compilation called "Silence" in early December. It was John Cage whose 4'33'' cleverly demonstrated the near impossibility of…

A tribute to the nostalgia of Christmas past and what seemed like simpler times when viewed through the lens of memory. Recorded November 2021.

Heres a story of a cold cold house They walk by Trying as they do to catch a glimpse, of life inside the cold, cold house But the dark of the windows only reflect themselves Their enquiry is rejected The house keeps its secrets to it’s self…

This is a cover of a song written by my songwriter friend Mike Miller. I always thought he brought a unique perception to his writing. He gave permission for me to cover the piece. You can check him out at: https://www.facebook.com/steven…

Another song for Quarantine Tunes Volume 50/90. I finished off the 2021 50/90 with a lot of crappy songs and a handful that I thought were worthy of a closer look. This one is fun. Nothing like bashing your head against some nice heavy rock…

the high handed enemy

The story of Abel Blood's haunted grave. Some say on certain nights, the finger engraved on his headstone which normally points upward, will be pointing down. Is Abel inviting you to join him? Happy Halloween. Recorded October 2021 - RPM Challenge…

Bringing back a song from 2011 with a new twist. The song now has drums, bass, and an orchestral backend. This is hopefully part of a larger collection of me reworking older songs with orchestration. Many thanks to Brian of A Beautiful Scene…

Another one from the archives! Collab with glu from 2009 - I took his original guitar track and added vocals, then he remixed and made about four more versions, but this is my fave.

This is the busiest arrangement on this EP and I'm thrilled with how it turned out.

I love baseball. It's the best.

A live track, originally 37 minutes long, folded in over itself, with one half time stretched a bit.

Can you hide in happiness Can you disguise the sadness in your voice Could you play only major chords Can you hide in happiness Choose a part of you to show And no one around you can know Just how deep the scars go Can you hide in…

I dreamed this song a while ago. Sort of a music circle in a pub. Lots of instruments and percussion and what not. I quite like it :) (Bass, lyre, bodhran, bongos, shaker, 2 mandolin tracks, multiple clap tracks)

Jam track or for meditation. Trying out the iTabla app, added bass and guitar to the tabla/tanpura loop.

Brian wrote a song. Wilsun covered it. Wilsun gave me his Garageband file. I teamed up with a robot orchestra and we made this. Hopefully Brian and Wilsun will like it. Wilsun's cover: https://alonetone.com/wng801/tracks/leave-me-alone…

First new release in over 2 years... This was originally inspired by a weird FX patch on my Blofeld, with the first couple minutes coming together in just a few days of work. It then sat untouched for the next two years, until I decided to…
