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:
1) Create harmony with spoken voice, via pitch shifting (Did the first part of the program disturb you…
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.

 right now with Blythe, but I'll be back in action in a week or so. I'm planning on attempting another 24h on 8/30. I'm hoping that will kick off the new era.
Rough and Slow acoustic version of the more poppy [lifeline glu and sudara collaboration](http://alonetone.com/doublemeanings/tracks/lifeline).
If you like 4 minutes of the same 3 chords, you'll LOVE this song.
Now that I have two microphones…
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.

Experimenting with my piano/keyboard skillz and a first attempt at record clapping. Needs a good go over with some quality drums and some better arranging. Everything sounds very "synthy" on account of I don't have any quality VSTi at the moment.
Ooooh, that bass is Juicy Fruit, love it. Clapping turned out really well. Gotta admit, I wanted it to build up and keep going! But I'm happy to be teased too :) Did you use compression at all, or is everything completely clean?
What'chcu using these days as a DAW anyway? Good thing I ask you these detailed questions when alonetone doesn't let you reply back in a threaded way (who built this darned site anyway!) - but heck, I'm curious.
An experiment in simplicity. Back to the basics. It's the only counter to stagnation. Don't over think!
This was pieced together quickly while in front of the microphone. Revisiting the editing/mastering process was fun.

This one's for that little black and tan, Nahannah.

Congrats brando on finishing! Lots of tasty aural morsels in these tracks, it's really an amazing body of work that you pumped out in 24 hours. Amazing. Enjoy the sleeeeeeep!
It's great to hear your voice being supported by other instruments than guitar, it's a whole other world. Is there more to this song, or is it just the short but very sweet 1 min?
For our beautiful son Willem, in French Guillaume.
recorded in my livingroom, 16-7-2009.
I called the song Guillaume before because of the beautiful sound.
Since 2012 I changed the title of the song into : Willem.
Because that makes much…
Inge, thanks for this, I was really happy to see that you uploaded some new tracks (well, and old). What a beautiful song. Your voice as always, is just absolutely *flawless*.
Solo acoustic finger picking thing I've been working on for a while. Sometime around 1968 I started studying with Mr. George Bennett who taught me the rudiments of finger picking. Later when we played some gigs together he also taught me the rudiments…
I've been trying to write a comment here for a good 10 minutes, but nothing is coming out right. I'm so very happy and honored you put your music up here, we are lucky to have you.
This song was made by two different piano samples (both
from Sudara):
1. One was recorded by Sudara (and gang?) axing away at a hapless old piano in New Mexico.
2. today, I convinced Sudara to noodle on the piano and send it over to me…
This is awesome. Just awesome.

Originally a very different song, slowed to a dragging pace and laced with dense moans of twisted agony. There's a little bit of John MacDonald on lead guitar in the build too.
Hi Brando. So I have this song. It's either inspired by / ripped off from / a tribute to....YOU and this album bust out. I wrote it months ago melodically, but never stuck lyrics to it. I want to dust it off and bring it out. I was just hammering the piano playing it when I thought "hey, actually it would be really cool to have 2 different voices on it, or to work directly with brando on it in some way." - Interested? Not sure how your life looks these days, but if you like I can send you a raw piano/la la la version with a note about my intentions, and you can see if you like it.
Hey Geoffrey, awesome to see you here. Some very nice sounds, love the mix. Really like the xylophoney sound around 2:11, sounds like a doorbell when it enters. Dig the way it falls apart a bit at the end. More please! :)
I'm learning to 'listen' to the 'flow' of life all around me and not get so caught up in little things that don't really matter.
Learning to enjoy! Life is good...
The river runs
and i look into it
i see myself
in a million faces there…
This is pretty experimental for me, and even I feel it is way out there. This is a chronicle of a man descending into madness after discovering the truth in the words he has said and deeds he has committed.
Really to me it sounds like cheesy…
Hi Inge! Any new songs lately, or is being a full time mommy eating up all of your time? Listened to "Don't" a couple times. Really nice guitar part and (as always) beautiful voice. Tough topic to sing about, you did it well.
Made when the credit crisis was starting, Volatility refers to how volatile things are in reality and how it results in us being insecure and uncertain about the present and future conditions of our life.
Something completely different- Uilleann pipes(Irish bagpipes) and synth. I wrote this tune over 20 years ago in the style of traditional Irish slow airs. It was recorded way back in 1991 for an album that's been out of print for over 15 years…
I watched as she walked back across the border. There was no one
waiting to question her. she turned back to look at me from the other
side of the fence. I couldn't decide which side of the wall I was on.
Goodbye my Penelope.
Loved this album, it was a whole bunch of fun. The auto-tuning is just nuts, as well as all the bitcrushing and panning and samples. Just a whole 40 minutes of fun. Thanks guys.
Comments on Sudara's stuff
Really nice one man!

How have I missed this?...very, very nice.
This is very special. I really love the canon/chord you built from the First Part sample.
VERY nice.
very nice; thanks
Suds, you bet I'm interested. I'm off in Renton (Oh to Renton) right now with Blythe, but I'll be back in action in a week or so. I'm planning on attempting another 24h on 8/30. I'm hoping that will kick off the new era.
...beautious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It took me a while to find this. Outstanding. I dig that last minute or so.

As da Vinci says: "Art is never finished, only abandoned"
A *sweet* tune guys, really enjoying this, and I'm only on minute 3. Awesome. Found this via "Songs I haven't heard" on the radio.
I've got this cranked up, blasting through the house. Thanks!
Nice, love the breakdown and the last 15 seconds. Bow chicka vampire ftw.

Your stuff has a lot of positive driving energy. Really enjoying your thick sound.
Just gorgeous.

Sweeeeeeet. Awesome to see/listen to you here, I was like "no...is that THE Tim Gourley!?" Nice track, dig the birds and the the laid back feel.
Really enjoying your songs, they are a great companion to my day.
