I set myself the challenge of making a track this evening. I've uploaded it with 2 minutes to spare.
I started out with a wind chime instrument in Kontakt. I sequenced it using the PX-18 sequencer and then fed three different version of it…
I've been learning this Fats Waller style "stride" blues piece since *forever* but I'm finally getting it. Still have the last two bars to learn but here's a rendition of the part I've learned on an underwater marimba. I was accompanied on bells…
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…
Another test of the Reichatron on a flute sample. The signal chain for version 1 of the ensemble is now completely worked out and only some details of the beat mode controls for navigating the loop around the sample remain.
This time I employ…

Just messing around with voices and Yottskry. Here I am using it in Live and feeding 3 different vocal clips at a time. It's pretty slow getting going but I think it rewards (for some value of 'reward') listening all the way through.

This begins with an impressionable young man, looking for strange and exotic flowers on the sea bed. He's new to these waters and is taking chances in darker depths. His mind begins to drift as he dares himself deeper...does he begin to see a city in the watery landscape? Mermen - flying about on underwater jetbikes with beautiful sea goddesses, drenched, but holding on to their blue/grey torsos? The lost bell chimes as he catches his breath...will he ever return to the surface?

I just finished reading Citizen Vince by Jess Walter and at one point in it the protagonist meditates a little on hearing people speak without listening... nevermind, my brain is just connecting this track with the musings of that character.

Hey, this is really cool. I'm transported into the ventilation ducts of an alien spaceship listening to the extra-terrestrials gently talking to each other. **added to favourites**

I'd wanted to play around with Guitar Rig 3 since getting it at the weekend. The guitars are ableton loops mangled with guitar…

I'm an old trance head, so I had to have a go at making a trance tune during the 24 hours. This had the advantage that I could stretch out the breakdown…
One of four tracks I did for the August 2009 24 hour challenge. I'd just finished the trance track, it was 3am, and I wanted something completely different.
It's 110bpm, the piano is NI AkousticPiano Steingraber 130. The bass and organ are done…
This is quite an old track that got abandoned because I didn't feel it was right or going anywhere.
But listening to it in iTunes this morning I thought it passed muster. I don't think it has enough variation to justify it's length but it's gently…

instrumentation:
Mostly electric guitar and violin bow. The end is accompanied by my blubbing and a haunting sound recorded by Sudara (an ebow against what I think is a piano string... he'll have…
MMi's Voices
http://alonetone.com/mmi/tracks/voices-3
MMi wrote the song. I programmed percussion, recorded tabla and vocals.
This is the first public output after going through about 40% of nickstutorials.com sound design series.
All the sounds started off with my sampling myself either saying something, clicking my fingers or clapping. They were recorded through…
A morning storm recorded in the courtyard and a musical motif written in the evening. combined time working-- 45 minutes, interrupted by a phone call from the parents to see if I was still alive.
Ambient guitar with generous reverb served up on a bed of glitched up vocal samples.
Boring technical details:
Puremagnetik voxbox micropak came with a bunch of vocal clips. I put them all into live and gave them all follow actions to play…
an exposition,traditional,of the raga ,bilaskani todi,transformed into a slightly dark ambient piece of music,exploring musical landscapes,inspired by a scenario,as if for a film,which my music normallt is.
This track started off with an idea. The idea was an instrument setup such that I could play a single note, or octave and have arps and stuff built it up...
I failed in that experiment by getting carried down the add more effects road and before…
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…
Just realized I wasn't following you so I hadn't noticed your latest track. It's got some lovely, ethereal, sounds in here and a beat that really carries it along. Cool track. So, it's been nearly two weeks, when can we expect Pomodoro 2? :)
Increasingly I think the music I am making is less about sound design and more about expressing some of the things inside of me that want out. I guess I may be starting to know what I want.

Incredible ventriloquism. The crispies kept me looking up and all around. Ah, I sound weird...
who?
also excellent... My favourite tracks of yours seem to occupy a space somewhere between the artificial/synthetic and the organic.
Very cool
Very nice; I think this is my favourite track on this album!
Great track cool sounds.
Underwater smokey. The mermaids are throwing their scales at you.
This track is kind of Floydish and kind of Kraftwerkish...and very cool. Thanks for checking out my recent track :)
This is way cool mate great sounds magic. And thanks for your comments mate.
Ear candy par excellence! Captivating stuff!

Great sounds mate very cool.

Very cool! Amazingly melodic!
Ha! Splendid vocal blurblation. I think I even recognize myself beginning around 1 minute-ish. :D
Sweet!! Its like the mind of a cylon! Yeah I know Im a nerd!!

Great 24hr album octo!
Trippy, reminds me of days long gone :)
Love this track! The intro is especially great, really hooked me into it.
Enjoyed this one a lot. Simple beat but some great sounds and variations to keep it going.
This has a great, laid back vibe. I love the organs (must check out B4) and the horns. Sweet.
glu: :)
Sister is so cheap, not buying herself a thesaurus, that she has to steal "WOW!" from me... hands off! WOW! :)
Dreamy :)
This is awesomely impressive man.
Cool sound.
Sounds like film music, reminiscent of a western. Right now I'd like to be the hero striding into that storm because it is too HOT!
This one grew on me as it went along. The 'verbed guitars are very nice. I expect to hear more of them in due course ;-)
Good music to code to, kinda reminds me of Zatôichi.
Lovely, too short :)
Love this one.
Beautiful. Just beautiful.
Wow. Beautiful, grimy, like someone giving a last salute to a barge full of gravel going over a waterfall.

And thank you all guys. It's great to get feedback :)
MM: Well ... it hadn't occurred to me but I did just buy my first dub album and listen to it today ... maybe it did influence me.
