Another one from my ambient crackpot series.
This features two instances of my new instrument the Novaphone 340 Imperial. A grand name for a grand instrument (Xylo just didn't do it justice).
The first Novaphone is playing three samples…

The title came to me as I was listening to the track and was reminded of looking through [Savage's](http://alonetone.com/sistersavage) telescope at a starry sky and us being completely unable to figure out how to get it aligned :)

This is the first piece made with a Reaktor instrument I built today that I have called "Xylo".
Xylo is a sampler that plays a region of the sample back and forth with a 10s release time. Each note defines a region of a different length (but…

This started with a couple of samples in a new version of Boite Diabolique where the samplers slide over them at different rates and varying granular density. I recorded some of that as I varied the rates and then brought the recording into Live…

I had to listen to this again straight away because I love the ambience of the piece. My favourite part is the 60s from 2m40 which is deliciously eerie and more than a little ominous. You've given me lots of ideas.
Instrumentation: fretless bass, tabla, acoustic and distorted acoustic guitar, hang drum samples (courtesy of Sudara), soft synth (AAS Ultra Analog), ambient sample of the jungle (pitched down two octaves) a sprinkle of ebow (from my Sudara files).
Another in my ongoing series of experiments with the Reaktor instrument 'Metaphysical Function'.
This was produced and recorded entirely in Reaktor with the resulting AIFF file converted to MP3 using Fission.
In this piece I start with one…
Heh... i've been listening on monitors (I have a pair of KRK-RP5's) so maybe haven't experienced the full dose of HF myself :)
And Wildgeas, I hope that's a good kind of hurt :)
I told the [good Sister](http://alonetone.com/sistersavage) that I wanted to try using vocals in a track and she offered to do me some abstract, stylized, vocals that I could play with and this little number is the result.
Working with wet (pre…
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…
A skipping CD of children's music, an old accordion with sticky keys, some subterranean drums and synth bass, a departing train. Hoping to achieve some kind of glitchy transcendence through the broken fragments.
From the archives. Traditional Irish slow air. Myself on the Uilleann pipes with synth backing. This was recorded at a concert here in Weston back in I think '92. Originally recorded on an ancient 4 track machine and then transferred to cassette…
A long meditation/wank.
This weeks guitar lesson we started looking at melodic minor modes. I went home and started practicing scales. Wasn't long before I got stuck on Dorian flat 2. So I fired up the looper and recorded a session.
Funny…
If it makes you laugh, you're supposed to laugh. If it makes you feel sick, you're meant to feel sick. If you like it, thanks. I saw you in the locker bay. I heard you like Toulouse-Lautrec. and by the way I didn't write the last twenty seconds…
Thank you so much for your comment on my Metamorphosis-1 track. I hope PG would agree since I do love his music and would hate to think I'd cause him offence.
This is one of several beat tracks for my new piece "Z-Land" for string orchestra, amplified string quartet, and DJ. The full piece will be performed by the Zeeland High School Orchestra (from Zeeland, MI) November 20 at the Baltimore City school…
Still under construction. Or maybe not. Bassline might be replaced by a real bass, maybe, and I'm not sure if I'll keep the Ableton Live softsynths as I may replace them with hardware. Maybe. I could just end up leaving it the way it is.
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…
Comments on Mr Sandbags's stuff
I dig this mate very cool.
Frankly, I like this piece as it is. You've left space without the feeling that something is missing.
I love this...
Reaktor is pretty damn cool and this is a fine example.
very cool mad scientist stuff ;)
Ethereal bells and grit! Can't go wrong with that, IMO. Wonderful instrument you've created, Mr. Bags.
Unable to put my finger on precisely why but your recent work is really speaking to me. But why ask why. Bravo.
fantastic sonic manipulation. Will have to look up the GB novel.
That is very cool mate
Epic!
Nice soundscape. Shimmer was a great addition!
This is the track I wish I created this weekend. Fabulous.
@wg: My plan to have Professor Plum take the fall has come to naught I see :)
Always a wonderful lesson in sound. Dramatic intro. It has that murder mystery feel to it. It was Mr. Bags in the Kitchen, with a knife.
very cool!
@bethan: thanks, that's an evocative image, i like it.
@Johnny: thanks, i think it shows some promise :)
Sounding good Bags! Puts me in mind of swirling desert winds!
Now that is very cool mate. Great sound.
wow. thats such an intense experience. mindblowing through the headphones

Great track and I love the piano on here, fantastic.
I've listened through and love the cool, laid back chic, of your pieces. Great sound and style.
Woah... loved this, very immersive.
This is really fabulous, love the sound, love the playing. Sad when it ended, but you'll upload more won't you? :)

Ahh.. the creepy music box at the end top's it off horribly :)
What Kirk said.
Oh, this is a bit different. Love the way the track builds up and then decays at the end.

Rock isn't a genre I'll listen to often but I liked this.
Thanks folks. I had a lot of fun with this.
@lokakuunmaa: what an awesome comment mate, thank you :) It happens that Apollo is my favourite Eno album evar!
What a wonderful concoction.
Encore!
*joins applause*
Totally hypnotic.

This is great Erik, love it!
Liked this one a lot. I'm not sure if it would sound better with hardware and a different bassline. Sounded pretty cool to me as it is :)
Lovely sound.
