I do three things after waking up these days: I shower. I make coffee. I play this song and drink my coffee.
Nothing complicated. Nothing fancy. Just some basic fingerpicking to test my motor skills and bring some aural sunshine into my day.
Just a simple humble ditty, one of a handful I've been playing on the piano lately.
I haven't been in the mood to do much recording in the last months — or more specifically, haven't been in the mood to flesh out and arrange tunes. So this…
This is a piece written for 37signals, made to accompany a [fun video they did on Letterpress printing](http://37signals.com/svn/posts/2795-a-letterpressed-thank-you)
The track is best listened to in context of the video, since it's scored…
First draft.
Dedicated to my mother on her birthday.
In the outro: Trombone, Horns, Clarinets, Mouthpiece buzz by Andy Hentz (arrsuarez) and organic drum related sounds by Glu.

Psychedelic! I so dig the richness. Nice handle on jazzing up that near-east scale. I like how the music side of your brain works and look forward to learning more about the rest of your brain -- ROCK ON!

This is the first cover song I've ever really recorded in my 15 years of playing and recording.
The guitar and voice are each full continuous takes, I didn't want to do comping (copy and pasting), though the vocal harmony parts were done in…

Plucking of the "wrong side of the strings" on my jazz guitar. Rhythm made with an espresso machine.
I tried to do 2 main things here:

Ooooh, I'm glad I'm following you, or I would have missed this in the all of the new tracks being uploaded now. Awesome, I'm happy you are making new tunes - These two new ones are solid, a lot of fun.
Hmmm, If this is 'not finished' then man, hand me everything you've ever not finished because it's pure gold. This thing has got me moving, love the outro man. Miss you.
lyrics:
i got a hot date
and you know i don't wanna be late
i need a ride
to the bowling alley
get ready cuz here i come
put my new skirt on
chewing peppermint gum
did my eyebrows fresh
white musk on my neck
part my hair to the right
cuz its…
This is actually the first song we produced, and the one that started the whole project. It's based around a sequence from the good old Korg Wavestation.
This is one minute of awesomeness. Great sounds. I'm happy you got a chance to go for the 24 hour album, I'm throwing this up on the feature page shortly!
Hi, I'd like to order 3 units of Fill Bot. Are my units refundable? Can I reuse them next year?
You claim "You can trust FillBot" but how do I really know that the generated music will be of a high quality?
This song will repeat now!
Yeah brando!!!! Wow, this is a masterpiece. I'm loving minute 9-10, it is rocking so heavy and great panning, degradation and oh my. bubbly and so many sounds and adventures and man. Congrats!
My favorite so far from your 24 hours, the electric guitar sounding sounds are really incredible. I imagine sitting in a dark cave, water-a-dripping, shadows playing across the walls, wide-eyed and alert.
Congrats Matt! I'm on your fourth track, so far an absolute success. This one reminds me of assignments from composition classes back at Oberlin. It's been amazing to hear all of the various sounds and moods powered by your machine o love, Elysium...

Great guitar work, excellent recording and studio work. The lyrics are okay, but the one thing missing sorry to say is the voice.
This is nice, all the subtle layers! With the title, it causes me to introspect and rise to a new level of awareness... Thanks!
What a beautiful little piece!

LOVED this track, MMI. It's one of my favorites of yours.
Great playing colin. Love it.
Yeah glu! I could listen to tracks like this all day, I really like this direction of yours. +1 for the real instrument / synth mix.
Anthony. It's the juice man. You have it. Great kick off for Record Production Month, I'm very excited that you are on board!
Wow! Love the sounds, the production, the voice, the build. Glad you guys showed up on alonetone, looking forward to your other tunes!
Awesome. Nice to see you back on alonetone, I'm digging the sound. Very Kim Hiorthoy-esque and light to listen to.
I like it Doug! Koyaanisquatsi is one of my favorite flicks.
This is rocking, what awesome beats. Glad you signed up alex!
Very enjoyable!

Damn, the drums are off the HOOK in this guy. I mean, the guitar is too, but WTF did you use for drums here? Amazing.
Blam, this guy is just straight purty. Love the voice samples.
Wow!!! Amazing. I could listen to you all day. Thank you so much for uploading this.
