I've been really into soundtracks for the past few days, especially those for action games and the notion of having a static, subtle track run over unpredictable game actions and still making the whole thing work.
So this was made with that…
Have just been listening to this on *small voice* another site... :) Love the percussion and the tension in the rising arrangement. The windchimes(?) at the end are a magical, rejuvenating touch. Very expressive and original. Great track.
Rather, it includes Norm's excellent track Pilón For A New Son (http://alonetone.com/norm/tracks/piln-for-a-new-son). Was trying to find out how less I can get away with in rhythms while still having enough flow. Feedback welcomed :)

@Norm: Thanks! Yeah I can see what you mean, I love trying to implement other ideas in my music, trying to adapt to new styles etc. Lots of fun. Suffice it to say I'll be using more of your tracks in the future :)

Whoa! That's awesome Tipu!
A big part of the fun for me at AT is tying my patterns to helium balloons and releasing them onto the interweb - there is no telling where they will ever end up or what (if anything) ever becomes of them.
But sometimes somebody nabs one and sends it back so different, so evolved and so reconsidered that I hardly can recognize it. Heard from a completely different clave (or phase shift) with fresh new perspectives (not to mention wonderful mixing, mashing and effects) for vintage patterns. Heard for the first time again...
Yeah, I wax poetic. But man, I just love that.

A meditation of sorts.
Arose from experimentation with a technique described here

This is a single take with a bunch of reverb added after the fact in Reaper (also an experiment…
I accidentally started two tracks on alonetone in different tabs. Your track and Movement to Contact's "Coffee with a Little Sugar". Do it :D http://alonetone.com/mtcband/tracks/coffee-with-a-little-sugar-by-norm
Maybe I missed a career scoring for no budget spaghetti westerns, because this is what this reminds me of. Done live a couple weeks ago with the Taylor and a floor full of toys and loopers.
I would opt for MetaZen (http://metazen1.bandcamp.com/track/moonsucker), a really soft trip-hop style rapper but I don't think I could reel him in here haha. Oh well, its a really nice, tight track regardless!
Ditty #10 for RPMC. I really had a hard time trying to come up with the final track, so I fell back on the old loop/delay/ebow improv formula, which I had hoped to avoid on this album. Kind of acoustic Breaking Light. Well it crossed the finish…
Another Live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen back in 1988 on the NPR show Mountain Stage. This time a piece of Gaelic mouth music followed by 3 reels. Maybe the most complex arrangement of a set of tunes that we ever did.
I was depressed at my caliber of friends when I had a drug problem. This was the result.
LYRICS:
Most my friends are embryonic
Most my friends are hooked on phonics
Most my friends stick to the comics page
Most my friends are disillusioned…

I like the atmospheric nature of this one -- it creates a nice soundscape to zone out to.
Lovely sound here guys.
Hypnotic!
Works really well! Rather like a Sunday morning,comes to mind with the bells in the air.
Pretty nice and well mixed.
Tong Drum Dream scape alla Norm.Nice
nice work!

cool stuff :)
Really nice
Nice remix and additions Tipu!
I like the minor and simple theme of this one.
excellent track, continually builds upward into a chaotic pulse but you manage to keep it uncluttered.
Nice build, worth the wait.
Sounds looping good to me!
Nice one, like what you've done with this.
Cool mix.
Well you geek on then it sounds great!

great opening! Surprised to see another idm/post-rockish composer at alonetone

leading back to home? Excellent.
I can't reveal that! (Thanks for the listens, brw, all)
This is awesome! Katatonia+Anathema vibe here
Nice, reminds me of some of The Final Fantasy music. Dont get me wrong, those songs are commendable!
nice, liking how the different instruments bring contrasts in the mood of the track :D
amazing
this is really good, chill.

Wow, this reminds me of some epic sci-fi soundtracks, ala Hans Zimmer and occasionally Philip Glass
the 'about me' picture pretty much summed it up heh. favourited.
great album!
Loving the back ambience in the later half of the song. Very seductive.
70's prog rock organ-ish synths, nice.
...and the beatboxing.
Loving the mellow scratches!
Reminds me of Sixtyniner (Boards of Canada). And yes, this should definitely have a loop button
I love this track so much. Such a nice track, one of my favs of all time!
Nice, reminds me of Smashing Pumpkins and Skinny Puppy. The feeling comes right through!
