Just an old song... And I am too drunk right now to come up with anything new.

Okay this is one for the serious noise freaks only.
This is three instances of Loop Shifter that I played in real time using my Novation Launchpad.
Turns out the launchpad makes a great keyboard for loop shifter, better than a real keyboard…

A prototype. I recorded the banjo parts myself and the rest is all arranged in Logic. The mandolin that comes in halfway through is a chopped up loop until I can find a mandolin to record my own solo.

Still playing with my _Neurotik_ sequencer made using Max for Live. This one turned out a bit strange. I was actually using it to drive Kontakt with cello & violin patches.
It was sort of interesting but not quite working when I dropped CamelSpace…

This is a fictional song...I get asked this all the time and I don't want anyone thinking my dad did anything like this...got you covered pops! LOL! Anyway, it's a song about child abuse and that's a tough subject to tackle but I think I did it…

This song is from the concept album "The Tower of Rust" that we have yet to release. It is the villain (Ahriman) of our story introducing himself to the audience...and attempting to paint himself as a reluctant hero.

I loaded Sonar with a couple audio tracks + echo and recorded my wife's seagull acoustic via a dean markley soundhole pickup.
After the take I multiplied a couple times and edited a touch.

3 guitar tracks followed by a track with the trap set. A lot of alt tuning lately posted on AT which I like. This guitar was tuned to an open G. After I did it, I thought the sound was more like a backwoods, hillbilly song.

There's a lot going on here, in the middle section I used what's known as a Shepard Risset Tone. This is a sound that appears to constantly rise in pitch. If you were to loop the sound, it would never stop rising! I don't understand the match…

When I was a child,
I was a white bird – but I was caged.
One day escaped,
I shared the rich fruit of freedom,
with birds of more ordinary colours.
These were wise birds,
They believed I would not survive,
Outside of my cage,
So they…

Hey! I finally found the master track for this one! Whoo!

This is my first serious attempt at making music. It is a short song about a moment of timelessness, where the present feels like the continuation of yesterday, and future is just continuation of the present. A day that will last for eternity…

Everyone has a first time....
This is an "out-take" from the You EP. Written in 2000 it was not finished as far as it is until 2005. Being lazy I just adapted the original rough take I made so I would not forget the song.
There are a few electric…

I recorded the guitar with a midi keyboard controller with the goal of making it sound like it was played on an actual guitar. I added the storm later.

A friend of mine did an off-the-cuff review of this song, saying "he's taken a subject so depressing and made it sound so good".
What do you think?

I have issues at my house, sometimes they manifest themselves in my tracks. In this case, the bassoon and oboe represent the mouse. The guitar is the peanut-butter.

A track that I had chalked up as a "throw-away" until a PAL convinced me otherwise. I believe this is an alonetone debut for this one.

This is a little piece dedicated to the lost world island of Socotra that grabs a lot of instrumentation from across Asia with little discrimination - the melodic instruments use Afshari with the exception of the Jaw harps which use 9-tET Sorog.

I have no idea why I named this song "Random". (hmm, maybe that's EXACTLY why I named it "Random.") I never use the word, I hate when other people do, and it's not mentioned in this song. Enjoy the recital.
