Here's another tune from the Wild and Wacky world of Rubber. Special thanks to Erin - The Panes for lending us her magnificent voice. As usual, we tore it up and turned it up side down. Thanks again Erin. http://alonetone.com/thepanes Enjoy!

extended dance version

One for my electronic friends. It's just a bunch of patches mixed with MIDI and glued together with 1 part water, 2 parts flour, and 2 parts ectoplasma. Enjoy!

an older track that never found a release other than lurking on my mydork page for a few years.

Tried out some new pop sensibilities This is a very rough mix...the vocals need a lot of work but I wanted to get it out there right after I wrote it

uh huh

The Endless Mountains Music Festival Orchestra (EMMF) Steadman Theatre, Summer 2010 Recording/Mixing Engineer - Brad Rissmiller

I wrote another song but the general reaction suggested that I best "scrap the puppy." So, I salvaged what I could and started over. This is what I got... I CAN'T BELIEVE SHE'S GONE

new mix..hope its not too shabby..a one man band..

I wrote this today in a new creative process, writing a poem first, then a lead part and ending with an accompaniment. It's definitely a different sound: I was experimenting. Some of my other influences came through on this one. Also, I paraphrased…

paranoia, misanthropy, distrust and maybe even a shred of hope.

cele mai multe a onorat musicka romaneasca!!!

As most of our other tracks, this is a rehearsal gone right ;) and the song turned into a long improv session. Enjoy ;)

Well, this is a tough one: It's an ironic song about a hot potato, but the way it's sung, the listener thinks it's about a beautiful woman until the very end. I'll post translations some day...

This is the studio version of Sayonara Willow Tree, lots of vocal harmonies and I even played electric guitar on it for your listening enjoyment. - Jack

This is my cover version of a recently written song about famine era Passage West, a port town in Co. Cork, Ireland. Written by John Spillane and released in 2009. John Spillane's myspace page is http://www.myspace.com/johnsp illane

Modeled kinda after a Thursday song. Using drums from a drum machine with guitars and bass.

keyboard percusion + xenharmonic dulcimer + drum machine + warbly strings + saturated bass + field recordings

Used a drum machine and played guitar and bass over top. Maybe not quite rap.

Kind of Mars Volta-ish, I guess?

My softer side. Some interesting time signatures in here.

A self-portrait in grunge. I recently got an electric guitar, so I'm testing the waters a little bit to see where I can use it. Electric instrumentation sure changes the way I approach multi-tracking, that's for sure!

In the Church mode, for solo piano. Lento.

music from show

emotional roller coaster from March '10

Just playing around - wasn't too upset with what I ended up with. Sort of an intermission to something... if I decide to pursue this one, I'll get rid of that annoying buzz, I promise.

Jack Merlot goes electric.

I had been reading about the testing of the atomic bomb, which was directed by J. Robert Oppenheimer. The approach to its development was so scientific and clinical, and it struck how much of an emotional tirade Oppenheimer must have experienced…

This is the first single from my debut album, Burn Indigo. It's about the pressure of trying to write profound lyrics.
