Second of the songs with a movie clip from 1955.

Simple little song. My view on how love really falls apart. Last verse is in my opinion an add-on. I wrote it after the rest, at the behest of someone who thought it was too "un-hopeful". It may have been a goood thing.

This is probably to personal, to raw to put here, but I've been listening to some pretty courageous stuff here in alonetone. This is more of an occurence, a onetime performance, more of a memorial, than a recording. My dad had died recently, I…

At the beginning of a Himitsu jam session we had an impromptu trio of guitar, theremin, and electronic drums doing a snippet of this classic theme.

Himitsu jam. Title says it all. Visting hard rock guitarist sitting in this session.

Himitsu jam session. This little piece reminds me of driving through small towns in Mexico on Sunday morning, with the light just pinking the horizon, and the entire towns' populace heading to mass to the sound of the church bells.

Allelujiah-This was supposed to be a completely different song, but this one just wrote itself instead. It’s almost all first take, except for the bass, which took a while to get straight so that it wouldn’t overwhelm the song. It has this tone…

Named after a painting which was named after a lovely little daily ritual I share with my best friend.

Late night, last piece from a Himitsu session. Very laid back. All electronic. Recorded on minidisc and rescued later from a random hard drive.

Playing with reverberation and stretching, part of a larger ambient piece for the RPM2010 challenge. It uses heavilly effected and modified samples and VST Synplant.

The album kicks off with one of the gritter, darker songs. The amazing, gravely voice you hear is that of Linda Harrison.

There are a bunch of bass tracks going on here. Headphones help pick out what's going on. This one came to me leaving Taos on the drive back to Phoenix, coming down out of the canyon. I suddenly became conscious of a disturbing dream from the…

Inspired by the book Musicophilia by Oliver Sacks. An earworm (or brainworm as Sacks espouses) is that catchy melody that sticks in your brain that you just can't shake.

The lyrics continue the theme of the previous track, if you care about that sort of thing.

these 2 "new" songs are a test to see if I now have what I need to successfully upload material. These 2 songs were recorded 20 years ago on a Tascam 4-track. The band is the Riptiles.
