Written for/about Ben Montgomery. Answering machine messages wondering where he might be are from yours truly and Jason Biehler, his two closest friends who were always trying to track him down.
The first version.
This is the first and only song I wrote on [arrsuarez](http://alonetone.com/arrsuarez)'s Christmas gift to me, a mbira that he lovingly crafted by hand.

I love that the title has a period on the end. Almost makes it believable when it's below freezing outside.
Beautiful sound. You've really captured the feeling here.
Poured myself a small cup of acoustic guitar, half finger picking, half ebow. Nothing fancy, nothing magical, nothing fantastical, just something to relax through.
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.
For my friend and coworker, because he certainly deserves it.

You need locking up for crimes against poor, sentimental, over-sensitive ladies as they sit alone at night, in the dark (because these candles look lovely but are rubbish, to be honest) sipping red wine with only their dreams for company. Vocal rings out like a bell over already heartbreaking notes. I shoot you with my blubbing.
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.

A jarring Elysium composition, structurally similar to Komposition-1 but using the Kore 2 instruments "Boesen Buddy" and "Trembling strings" played simultaneously. I think I was also using an osciallator to control note velocity. I need more flexibility…
The first bioelectrophilia track since returning to the US. This song was made with only 2 saki monkey vocalizations. Note the beginning of the song which demonstrates how one vocalization was turned into part of the percussion.
Woah, the dive and cut of the vocalization is awesome....then, the sweet entrance of the full beat...wooo! +1 for tunes that decompose/recompose and teach us how they are built.
This series is a definite hit!
This is a pre-release of a song from my new album. The song still needs some polish and rubbing. I will change it out once i get done with the final version. The lyric was written a long time ago, of what could or couldn't have been:) Thats the…
This song is going to be the intro to my debut album. I wanted choose to make a beat that would't be the norm in Hip Hop.This beat was the result and everything else just fit. This song is all about BECOMING somthing even though friend or foe…
Got into a bit of a mess recently and, well, this is me not doing anything about it (except sitting here and recording this, eh). I really need an acoustic with pickups.
this song is about entering the space of friends, brothers, loved ones.... it's about entering their sadness, their joy, their pain. Journeying along side those I love and finding out that so often I fall so short. This song is about the letting…

The title comes from reading "The Willows in Winter" to my son Maurice, which is the sequel to "The Wind in The Willows" and thinking of Toad and the sort of idyllic natural landscape. While messing around in Logic, I ended up creating a "Drag…
This song made a little splash in the New Music blogosphere back in July 2008. With possibly the first diss rap directed at modern chamber music groups, Hybrid Groove Project (that's DJ Dubble8 and new music saxophonist Brian Sacawa) brought some…
This is freaking hilarious! Milton Bizzabit! Perfectly fitting samples. Create that controversy, Dubble8!
My absolute favorite line: "Sound original? Nope!
We’re putting new dope twists on licks that Philip Glass wrote."
When CobSOn was 6 years old, mom and dad Cobson sent her to the local music school (in the suburbs of Toulouse) where she started to play the piano. The course lasted 11 years.
During the summer 2002, she wrote her first words, "give the slip…
A piece I produced for Classical Public Radio last fall after interviewing conductor Stefan Sanderling. What he has to say about music and why he does what he does is powerful, especially against the backdrop of music from Shostakovich's Symphony…
For the record, nothing is out of "format" for alonetone. If it is uploadable, and you made it then it is worth listening to. Bring it on. (I mean it, I really enjoy listening to your stuff)

"Jesus has had his weetabix!!" Awesome tune, i love the way it rolls.
This one is my favorite from your first three uploads

Wow, this one managed to slip by me a month ago. Good work.
Amazing mix of sounds, I keep being surprised. Quirky and poppy and oh my.
This one stopped me. Resonated with me.
Very very nice playing. That guitar sure sings!
This beat is great - drives you really well. Down with the norm, up with real people.
Pretty, with a side of melancholy. Love the metronome, it makes the tune for me.
Ok, more like two hours! over and over...
I just sat here and listened to your music for a good hour. Wonderful stuff, Anthony.
I agree with ACL. Short and very sweet.
Really enjoying the active Piano in this one, it rocks out at 7:10!
This is great. Chilled out and well recorded!
Nice, Skidoo, this is some clean and relaxing playing.
Man, this one clicks for me.

Ooooh, I love the wah and distortion on this one, freaking awesome.
Sweeet, great opener for this album, man.
