This track was my attempted submission for Ramen Music #001. I finally got around to uploading it here.
It was made using several instances of the Max for Live instrument "Loop Shifter" that I played in real-time using my Novation Launchpad…
Felt the need to go back to something more sound driven.
I've been learning a lot of new Jazz chords and wondered what they might sound like as pads. I ended up creating a device chain in Ableton Live featuring Alchemy, Omnisphere, and Absynth…
very nice sound space,, the sounds do pan well through my speakers (just got a new set, and this sounds really cool),, i am always impressed by the range for music/sound/feelings found on alonetone,, from my old piano plunking to your spatial symphony,, through the great guitar and vocals,, so much here to enjoy,, anyhow well played

Love all the different sounds and textures. I sure am a sucker for textured and layered sounds in music! Some really cool 'underwater' sounds! Thanks for your recent comment on my newest song 'The End'.

Chilling and charismatic. Love all the different elements that force unsettling images in to my mind. Dark steps down shiney corridors, naked lightbulbs swinging from decaying ceilings... Okay, maybe I don't "love" that, but I'm definitely impressed by it! I think the Brothers Quay will be after you.

An experiment in using [Photosounder](http://photosounder.com/) which is a spectral editing tool.
This track started as a sharp tin can hit which I turned into a droning gong. But I had no idea where to go next.
So I started rifling through…
Well now, this is actually a very old track, made back in March '09 and not that long after I started learning piano.
I was learning a very simple 12-bar blues piece and getting bored with the piano sound I started messing about with the Logic…

thanks re skree. the thing about noise (for me) is it can be so fun! there's a built-in visceral excitement and the challenge is harnessing it into musical contexts.
man, Lao Jia is hypnotizing me!
The exquisite bass was performed by my friend Edo Castro, but everything else was done on a Waldorf XTk.
In fact, originally the bass line was from an entirely other recording. What I did was to mute the other tracks and record all new ones…

Today I gave a quickie demo of Live to my guitar instructor. I started with an empty set and threw some crap at the wall just to show him one of the work flows.
Later, when I brought the thing home I couldn't leave well enough alone and started…

Uploaded a new version which fixes the drums although there's still a feedback problem (related to MIDI timing I think) that needs to be fixed in a final mix.

Okay this is the problem with mixing being "throw a mastering channel strip on it, bounce, upload". At some point about the 2 minute mark the drums track have cut out - probably overloaded Reaktor again. So then you get 2:30 that is largely just the bass.
A little study using Dmin6 and Dmin7 with a little D dorian dressing.

When you do this kind of track it evokes a feeling of travelling without moving.
It reminds me of being a passenger in a car on a motorway at night, slightly tired and letting the world glide, carelessly, past me.
I've always liked that feeling.

Wow this is unreal mate eerie sounds great track. Thanks for your comments mate.

Stop motion! Stop motion!
Lovely crackles in this one. Tons of wonderful textures.
Well spotted Kirk, yes.
What an experiment! Is that the "all around my hat" sample?
In my hands Loop Shifter is anything but subtle :)
might be a leeetle to experimental for what they want for Ramen, but I liked it! Bethan singing? Really?
The more I hear this, the more inspired I am to do something really sinister.
Billowy. Those sounds layered quite nicely!
great dream ambient
Yeah man. Crunchy!

loving the sounds and atmosphere. i gotta listen again.
What a blend dude! Great software!
Sounds like the soundtrack to someone being slowly drugged at a carnival. Very effective! Love the underground gong sound. Deliciously dark!
This is sensational! Permission to download, loop and warble on?

Welcome Seth :)
Perfect Sunday morning track.
Oh man that was great.

I believe Sister is channel the shorts... or something :)
That was rather fun :)
Love your sound.
Love this.
I enjoyed this one very much.
Cool sound.
What an awesome track, I love this.
Awesome track man, this puts me in mind of my beloved Apollo: Atmospheres & Soundtracks. Kudos to you!
Very chilled. Bring on the full track.
I'm really liking your stuff and happy to see a fellow Logic user!

Fabulous sound. Liked this one very much.
I love the hauntingly distant piano's you've created here. Very much.
I was so totally there. Awesome.
