One of four tracks I did for the August 2009 24 hour challenge. This was the last track I did, and it shows.
I was pretty tired after finishing 3am chill, and had to mess round for ages mangling loops and trying out different things before…

Jupiter is massive, in fact 1,320 Earth's can fit inside it. Jupiter serves as that huge void in your life, you can't seem to overcome. To me, it symbolizes a girl I really liked but couldn't get her to reciprocate. I thought I could change her…

Given the spirited twitter reaction to the question of whether SisterSavage should buy pitch correction software, I submit this. The pre-melodyne version of "spilt milk".
It also retains my so-called "MST3K" vocals, which were removed in the…

This was a quick, 20 minute job with my bass trombone and Propellerhead's "Record" (beta). The arrangment is by "PeterTuba.com".

My wife and I had a fight. It was a bad one. And, after awhile, without words, we made up. This is a song about that.

A song about how I don't follow, or care about, fashion or trends.

OK it's the morning after the party at the China Quay, and our hero is waking up. What has happened?
Influenced by about 6 different doowop tunes (great for hangovers!)

Wrote this little piece from 7/14/09 to 7/15/09. A lot more metal than I'm used to playing. Played on my broken-neck Epiphone semi-hollow.

sounds:

A quick transitional piece - sort of a hybrid of ambient drone and louder rock.

A story to my love. I'm not perfect, but I love you.

KY69. Based on a Californian radio station that plays awesome music all around the clock. The characters are wildly in love but won't admit it. The car is outrageously sporty.
Apart from everything mentioned in the lyrics, it's a true story…

1st of 10 "Off the cuff" songs I wrote just before the great flood.
I haven't really had a chance to work on any but this one. This is different than the rest of them. All I did was turn on a drum machine and played and sang what ever popped into…

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!

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

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

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…

Honestly I have no idea where this came from or how.
I was messing with Omnisphere patches and came across a lovely, flutey, breathy sound that put me in mind of the scenes inside the monolith at the end of 2001. I setup a Rytme pattern to…

This is a little riff I've been carrying around for a few years from my Nozomi Phoenix days in NYC. A dreamy sequence, that reminds me of a Grimm tale.

This is a total remake of an earlier posting.
Lead vocals courtesy of fellow Alonetoner, Dana.
In the lyrics, I was trying to capture a sense in which there is something else beyond -
something which draws me as it were homeward. A son…

wrote this song while i was all alone in the middle of a nameless creek in the amazon jungle - beautiful spot!
This is from 2006 - the only song in this album that is more recent. Here I tried to use bossa chords and a modified bossa beat to…

this dates back to my earlier songwriting, back to 1984. To those anxious days before the wedding vows...

This is another version of the same tune used in Dana's Song. I just changed the lyrics. It was created back in 1999 with the help of Alontoner K.Scot.
This is my own way of looking at a beautiful text - Psalm 139.

This is part of a new body of work, centered more on guitar than synth, yet treating the guitar as I do the synth. This is still a work in progress, and I am open to input.
This is definitely an ambient piece, treating sound as a sculpture more…

A moody solo acoustic thing that I came up with playing in a long forgotten tuning. Just got a new Zoom H4N, so this was recorded in my shop sitting at my reedmaking bench may 12 2009

I wrote the music to this song while playing around on the piano, thought it sounded nice. But for a long time i left it like that cus I couldn't think of how to develop it.
Then one day i was playing it, and i stopped and saw my dad's old guitar…

If Berlioz would've heard this piece.. he probably would have said that it was too vulgar (lol) too much percussion... but oh well I got very excited when I made this one... the tempos are not very well because its very hard!!!
Uploaded
so..I decided to take those 2 previous tracks and see what would happen if i mixed em. some parts dont really mesh well - but before i delete this mix, i wanted to know if it works in some strange way for anyone?

this is a lick that i really dont know what to do with. Any suggestions as to where it should go from here?

This original melody idea was jotted down in October 2003 in Harmony Assistant, and I had written it thinking that someday I'd make it a real song with lyrics. While playing the tune on the computer, my daughter came in and said she liked it…

Filho Sumido is portuguese for "Lost Son".
Its my little bossa way of describing what its like to be away from the place I love, Brazil. Like a lost son. Someday I may make an english version - but then, maybe not. After all, its about Brazil…

Written today.
recorded on an iMac with the internal mic and no headphones (!) so it's probably going to be muddy as hell, but that feels about right for now.

This is my cover of 'Lady Killigrew'. This song was originally done by Sister Savage, and Bethan Mathis, and can be found on either of their alonetone pages. I highly recommend their version. They sing prettier... probably look prettier too…

Originally conceived as a mellow-ish, Stephen Stills sounding number (at least the verses), then the chorus came to me out of nowhere and turned the whole song on it's ear. I think that was for the better. I have to admit that I surprised myself…
