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.
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…
After an adventure in re-recording the entire song down a third, we came back to the original, tightened and tuned.
Always the self flagellating perfectionist, it still needs a bit more love. Always the pragmatist, it is probably done for now.

Sudara, you are really a fantastic musician.
You have a solid production vision, i wish i could get my hands on a real album with the final and superb mix of of this and other great songs.
Poured myself a small cup of acoustic guitar, half finger picking, half ebow. Nothing fancy, nothing magical, nothing fantastical, just something to relax through.
A typical folk song.
Written and recorded in about an hour for the 24 hour album (attempted on March 13th). Excuse roughness and vocal glitches, it was 2am and this was my first full take.
Thanks to montgomeru for his chord suggestions…
I took you seriously
I took it carefully
I didn't want to breathe too loudly
I walked around silently
I didn't say a word
Fear was there beside me
I know it sounds absurd
But so what?
So what.
I lived without money
I've lived without…

For my friend and coworker, because he certainly deserves it.

This is a recording of the first time I have played Ludivico Einaudi's "I Due Fuimi" all the way through.
It includes numerous errors & slight pauses but I managed to keep going and finish it and after MANY months of practice that feels…
I recorded this song a couple of years ago in a church. It was raining and I felt a bit blue at the time. I only had a zoom h1 recorder, a metronome and headphones at the time.
So I couldn't really play over what I recorded previously. But…
I'm trying to experiment with intentionally combining two different sounds. Since I seem to find this difficult I am starting with using a drone as one of the sounds taking my inspiration from the opening tracks of the Brian Eno & Jah Wobble…
Part of the Sunny, Sorta project.

there's a bomb in the back
as we head down the tracks
but we can only go so fast
there's a man on our trail
pack of dogs with no tails
this kind of excitement…
This song is written by Keith Landry.
He asked me to sing it and off course I wanted that!!
Thank you Keith!
About "Keep It Simple (with Inge)"
Well, I wrote this song as a note to my wife (who makes lists from time to time). I thought…
This song is a parody to the Austrians. Just how they talk, how they whine about everything.
It basically tells you to look at the bright side of life.

@Andrew I think I know what you mean. With the rate that information travels these days, I often find it hard to internalize and/or find a space to truly process and "feel" each event. Are we humanly capable of doing so? On top of that it's hard to hear my own true feelings and reactions above the chatter of the media, friends, etc.
The footage this music was made for hit me hard. At the same time I was really annoyed with the announcers wanting to explain what was going on. I need silence when viewing something like this, a human talking over this footage is irreverent and shameful to me. Does that make sense? I made this piece of music because this is my silence, or put another way, an example of sound that hopefully respects the image by pulling the watcher in, giving them space to feel what this means and not babbling in their ear.
Lullaby for Josephine - written by Laura Kepner-Adney
Now it’s time to go to sleep
Send my love to your dreams
Now it’s time to say goodnight
Kiss you once, hold you tight
Stars falling wherever you are
Send my love to the stars…
This is from years ago, living in santa fe.
I loved driving around in my little 1980s toyota corolla and listening to cassettes. I loved the way they sounded.
So I took a piano song I was working on, recorded it to cassette, dragged mic…
Comments on Sudara's stuff
hi you are very good artist
if I had my morning coffee somewhere in the mid-West or in a country town where the trucks don't make sooo much noise... that would be nice :)
I love this. Sometimes short tidbits are perfect!
Absolutely perfect.
Beautiful spacey Guitar rift in the back of the song, maybe more alternative rock-coldplay ish you have an amazing and unique voice
Sudara, you are really a fantastic musician. You have a solid production vision, i wish i could get my hands on a real album with the final and superb mix of of this and other great songs.
:) beautiful, really relaxing
That was really nice....gentle and slightly melancholic, but that suited my mood perfectly.
Love the vocals, especially the harmony voice in the lower right. Nice mix.
*applause* A modern day 'My Way' with a much more emotional, and compelling vocal. Very affecting.
Ooh, I love that synthy sigh, very saucy.
Magical, wonderful vocals - lovely, sparkly dulcimer!
Stunning.

Super into the doubled guitar/synth things. Vocals are :green_apple:
Crispy! No embedded video?
Just what I needed. I *really* like that this was recorded with the room sound, hit the spot.
Wow, this is amazing, pretty crazy playing both guitar and violin in the church.
This is dope!
Like the mood and instrumentation. Keeps moving...
Lovely overall sound on this track.
Listening again to this piece. Boat-tastic.
Listened to this twice in a row, it has a really nice mood.
Oh, and I love the crunchy stuff coming in after 3:00
Right up my alley. Enjoyable and full of lovely spoken voice.
Really a great track!
So awesome to hear something new from you!
Awesome! Super happy you signed up, even more happy that there's some music on alonetone in austrian dialect. Studying the lyrics....Oida!
