I did not do the 24 hour challenge but I did try and hang around in the chatroom as much as possible with Glu, SisterS, and ChrisM while they battled through it.

Hi Kirk.
Thanks... I do have a crazy selection of effects these days which is responsible for a lot of the sonic mangling I can do. Over the next year or so I'd like to get more selective and more competent about the results :)
I also think Yelyah's onto something. This might actually be a "track" if it had more structure. As it is the micro-structure created by automation isn't enough.
Lots of things to work on!
Thanks again.

OK- I'll admit I didn't listen to the whole thing, but I did hear about 6 minutes of it and it's interesting stuff! If I knew a tithe of what you do about manipulating sounds in software I'd be a league ahead of where I am!!

Yelyah, thank you for the encouraging words.
You're right that I have a pretty unsophisticated approach to what a "song" is. It's a facet I've begun to notice in everything I have done so far, that it is structurally uninteresting.
Guess I need to figure out how to take the next step!
Thanks again.

I listened to the full 24. :)
I dig what you've done here and would definitely call this music and not noise. I would like to see you create some separate sections. Like, a breakdown for instance, where you go for something totally different rhythmically before returning to the original idea.
Keep on experimenting! :)

Bethan you're very kind to even attempt to listen to this!
The kick drum that runs through the track is the source of most of the sounds, just mangled, tortured, and beat into shapes & frequencies kick drums were never meant to reach.

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…

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…

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!
The musical parts were recording using my Kurzweil SP3X…

I needed 2m02 to finish the album. I was completely spent and without a drop of creative juice left. Just noodling with an Omnisphere patch when one of my cats, Mississippi, jumped on my keyboard and proceeded to walk up and down and sit on various…
So this track was purely for the fun of it. I was messing about in Omnisphere and came across this wonderful sound that reminded me of the guild highliners in Dune.
I built a beat around in using Stylus, Ricochet, and Dubstation. Then added more…

Another song in the key of Glu.
I know I called the theme was [glubot for a day](http://alonetone.com/forums/togethertone/topics/glubot-for-a-day).
Maybe glubot for a week?
Okay so I enjoyed doing Glubotism1 enough that I thought I'd take a second crack at it. Same tools but took a different approach to how I used Stylus RMX and I introduced some of it's built-in effects on some of the parts. Also I bused RMX and…
When I put these last 3 songs on itunes, my computer did something weird. It told me that these songs were already out there on the internet somewhere. So, in order not to infringe on any copyright laws, I would like to assure everyone that NONE…
Thanks for the nice comment. Yeah those "abouts" were written at the ~23hr mark when I was at my nadir. I've left them for posterity but - relistening later - I was less horrified than I imagined I would be :) Looking forward to the next one!

Alternate title: Gratuitous Love Scene
Just hacking around with these chords; added some stuff and before I knew it I had one of those bits of cheesy music that accompanies those gratuitous sex scenes...
This was amazing Jeff. You coaxed some excellent sounds out of those old classics ;-) I especially love the end which put me in mind of "Moog meets Philip Glass". Looking forward to space (and wondering if I listened to them the wrong way around!)
Oh man that was over too fast, I loved it. So many nice parts and sounds, the echoey feel of the beginning through to the warmth of the end. And kudos for including Statler and Waldorf at the end :)

Full of fun, rhythm and interesting sounds. Trying to work out what some of them are, very cool!
glu: :)
yeah, it feels feminine, artificial, and something else.. i'll let you know when I can place my finger on it... if it lets me...
still hiding.
wonderful use of textures and very cinematic as others have said :)
Love the blending going on in this one. And what a title! :)
man i really dig this one. The sounds and mood you achieved here are just stellar.
I caught this groove.
Father, the Sleeper has awakened. I don't know where I went for 4 minutes but it made my hair move. Pretty cool and very creative.
Former South American dictator turned clown? ha! Think I remember reading up on that..sandbagdido?
your music has definitely been going somewhere over the past few releases. This is great dubby sounds.
I just folded space from my shop and found myself sitting in the studio in front of the monitors. Neat track!
oooh this is compatible with my circuitry!!!
A very cool track.
Sounds like a sexy girl robot getting ready for a night out. That sound at the end is her zipping up her silver thigh-highs.

Sudara turned me on to these. I really enjoyed this.
Awesome!
Thanks for the kid words guys, appreciated!
Sweet. Love the authentic airport charm :)

Fun :)
Love this one, the playing and the sound.
Love the sound, love the structure. Great track.
Aww man that ended too soon. Do an extended remix!
This is lovely.
Delicious, I think you reached 8 on the Hammond scale at one point there :)
Epic and beautiful.

Oh I loved the sound on here, the pedal steel sound is lovely. Great album Kavin!
Ah, love this. Love the title too.

I love your use of samples, really cool.
Fantastic! I love your playing.
Love this one.
