it's an entirely different world playing with vocals isn't it? Love what you did. Seems Sister Savage is one of the most sought after vocalists on here. hehe.

Well now, this is actually a very old track, made back in March '09 and not that long after I started learning piano.

One of the things about my [Glitching Satie](http://alonetone.com/sandbags/tracks/glitching-satie-1) track that I wasn't comfortable with was that it wasn't my recording that I was using. But I'm nowhere near good enough to play a piece like Gnossiennes…

We're deep in the glitch mines again.
This time with a beat developed in Stylus RMX, a "melody" using Soniccouture Skiddaw stones and Tonehammer Frendo, and a bass from Soniccouture Abstrakt Bass.
The beat was fed through The Finger with…
I'm uploading this more as a record for me than because I think either of these Destroyed Piano tracks are particularly listenable.

makes me envision a probe on mars wondering around when it suddenly gets a virus via a life form hidden under one of the rocks it overturned. Starts off running smooth..then, suddenly a glitch.

An ambient guitar piece done rather quickly, warts and all.
Stems from ideas I've been developing on my new JamMan looper pedal (catnip for guitarists if there ever was such a thing).
That was lovely. I can quite easily see how you would just jam for hours and never get around to recording. Which probably means you should be on stage!
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…
Thanks folks. When I put this one up I was afraid it would be a bit far out but, on repeated listenings, I think it's more accessible than I imagined. Glad you like it.
Body Disconnected (2002) was written to accompany choreography by Lauren Lutrell. The process included importing video clips of dance movements into the music programs I was using and scoring music to them as one might with a film soundtrack…
This is a beautiful work. The various sections are interesting in themselves but I also love how you've blended them together, the changes work really well. Bravo!
Love this. I've tried to make pieces like this but it's beyond my talent for arrangement at this point. I love how you've blended traditional sounds with experimental timbres. Nicely done!
Oh you've outdone yourself this time. What a wonderful piece. By three minutes I was being propelled through the inky void towards unknown stars. I could have listened to this **forever**.
This is a first test of a sequencer I built, using Max for Live, based on Audio Damage's latest plugin [Axon](http://www.audiodamage.com/instruments/product.php?pid=AD026).
Axon looks great but I'm saving for a Mac Pro so, to save money, I…
I've really enjoyed these tracks you've just uploaded but this one is easily my favourite. Evocative blending of sounds with a sketchy vocal that really fits. Nicely done.
this was an accidental song. I was making another song for which the main two loops of this song were simply the ending. The first of these loops is so visually stunning, I just knew It was its own bar.
More LoopShifted piano accompanied by Stylus RMX and Omnisphere. At over eight minutes it's perhaps a little self-indulgent but maybe it's more like punting down the river Styx than jet-skiing on a lake of fire.
Ah mes non, it appears I have mislead you. What sounds like a guitar is in fact.. a guitar. It's one of the very nice lap steel guitars from Omnisphere and I play the chords I used for the piano part which was used to create the main glitchmosphere.
Very raw, completely improved piece. One track, one take.
Guitar -> GT-10 -> JamMan Stereo
A touch of Discord 3 was added as a send effect. Limiting on the master track. Et voila.
Sorry about the clipping.
Recommended listening…
Here's to insignificance my friend. May you never be squashed like a bug.
Instruments used: Kontakt, LoopShifter, Stylus RMX
Effects used: Eos, DubStation, Replicant, Augustus Loop
Comments on Mr Sandbags's stuff
mega holy crap AWESOME!
Wow- that's a setting I never thought I'd hear the good sisters' voice in, but it works very well indeed! Cool stuff!
Wow cool sounds mate, Great track

Very clever indeed, I like what you have done with the sister's voice. Great all round sound.
As I said in Campfire chat, you have successfully reproduced aural hallucinations, my friend!
Thanks for taking me along for the...trip! :-D
:) interesting, strange, and savage.
gorgeous!!!! WOW!
@lokakuunmaa: what an awesome comment mate, thank you :) It happens that Apollo is my favourite Eno album evar!
Reminds me of Eno's Apollo
This is really nice. Well titled.
Blues like I've never heard it! Really cool!
Brian would be proud!
Nice one mate very good
You would make Philip Glass proud
bravo bravo! awesome version! Uber-impressed.
"sick"

Some cool sounds in here mate

Nice gritty sounds.

Short but sweet.
This is another of those tracks where I look for the 'double favourite' button in vain.
I enjoyed this a lot. Would that I would be able to improvise like this one day.
Oh you've outdone yourself this time. What a wonderful piece. By three minutes I was being propelled through the inky void towards unknown stars. I could have listened to this **forever**.
Strangeness after my own heart.
Really enjoyed this one, some great sounds and placement of those sounds.
Yeah my apologies to all listeners for not putting a fat reverb tail on this one. I wasn't thinking too hard. I might do that an re-upload it.
Love this.

Awesome. Yes there was a bit of clipping in there but who cares really? This was very listenable.
Now I'm feeling all left out because I have no headphones :(
I think after all I like this version best. It has a smooth, easy feel to it, like cruising through the night on a deserted motorway.
Lovely way to slide into the morning.
