It took a bit of doing and a lot of learning - I've built my first guitar
I have a video of all of the stills I took while making the guitar with some demonstration music.
The music has mistakes - but it is the first time I played it - I spent…
I got to play this $3,000 8 string baritone Taylor today. Had I $3,000 at all it would have been mine! It has to be one of the best guitars I've ever played and an ingenious string combination.
Very nice, you have quite a selection of music. I will endevour to get through it. Also want to reply to a comment you left on one of my Hobbit pieces. First, thanks for the comment, and most of the instruments are from Project Sam Symphobia. However the high violins and timpani are from East West.

This is a piece using Garritan World Sample Set (Tibet singing bowls and Tibet bells) and pianoteq. It also uses a non-octave tuning that is an infinite stack of just major seconds (scala file below).

I saw discussion of Bleu tuning on the yahoo tuning groups – all of which were tempered to a pure octave. Embolden by Andrew Heathwaite’s 88 cent guitar I decided to try the tuning without tempering to make the octave pure. So I made a scala…
This is a track from my retrospective album Heptadecaphilia.

I'm not on top of it as usual, guys. But I did manage to let Greg Brady out of my basement and set him free. This is his testimonial regarding the incident. I hope he can forgive me.
Once upon a rainy day, we were out in the farm fields waiting on the sun to break through the gloom. We arrived in this dark world naked and were washed clean waiting for the sun. Little darling, here it comes...
This is the first demo [Sister Savage](http://alonetone.com/sistersavage) and I have made for our RPM 2011 album.
Although I've uploaded a copy here we'd be really grateful if you would listen to the [version uploaded by Sister](http://alonetone…
Normal IL - tantalizing close to Urbana where musicians are turned to the darkside of microtonality. Come, let me show you the power of a 19 note per octave guitar! Seriously - if you are interested at all you may want to make the drive.
Along with her magnificent harmonizing vocal tracks, Inge sent me one track which was crashed by her 2-year old son Willem. He pretty much takes over the whole operation at about 3:00.
In the background you can hear the original rough vocals…
I Got the Idea for this tune when I left Geir at Stanstead Airport.
Recorded it Last night after a Gig....
For the Folk Fest...

Norm set me these drums for Dancing on my own a while back but Reg went and dumped the file so we couldn't use them. So i'm using them now, while Reg gets Gone.........Thanks Norm
Chris sent this track to me earlier today with the request that I add some percussion to it.
I had something different in mind.
After the first take I was afraid to return it to him, fearing that he would convert it to 23 edo or something…
I heard this as I let the IF playlist roll doing other things - this is really great! I love the very classic slide sound you have here and the piece is very bluesy cool.
Reg has this recurring dream of his fantasy women but she is always out of reach...........Thanks to Tess for letting me play with her tune.

I haven't seen that before. it does sound cool. thanks for sharing!
Cool guitar. Check out the new line 6 Variax guitar around $1,600 and 12 tunings on a knob including capo setting.Tons of other stuff also.
Great track mate very cool.
Nice one mate.
Just made my Son Dylan look sideways. Great atmosphere.
Oh yeh like this one mate very well done.
I find this quite soothing but can't help feeling there's more underneath
I just love this site, theres something for everyone. Played with your usual skill
Oh my word. Completely creepy and affecting! And this track has a spookily wrong timer... (1.54, not 1.23.)
The timer on this 'ere track is lying. It's only 13 seconds out...but that's kind of eerie, no? I mean, what with it being 13 and all. Just saying.
Timeless and bright.
wow i found this song to be incredibly eerie lol
very stately ......medieval
I shall have to get this on my phone as an alarm ...........
Goes perfect with the image.
make sure that cellar doors locked we don't want it getting out .....excellent atmosphere.....
Remind me never to go in to your cellar. Very atmospheric - cine score me thinks?
Like the use of the brass vpices - and that bassline is nothing short of superheroesque!

I know you've seen this somewhere before - but it bares repeating. This is a really nice piece - excellent improvisation!!!
this is so *strange*
I expected Beatles - boy was I surprised!! This is a wonderful bright, bubbly pop song - almost Beach Boys - but really good and modern!
nicely done - I enjoyed listening and especially the climax at 3' as pointed out.
very nice!
like I need to be encouraged!

like the indie vibe on this one!
beautiful piece!
nice jazzy number!
I love Inge's voice! - so rich. BTW - what guitar do you play - it sounds quite nice. A very good tune you both put together here.
I love your voice in this. Reminiscent of Gordon Lightfoot.
this is quite good. could I write music for it?
this is a great combination!!
interesting piece!
rockin' Reg and Norm - nice collaboration. Good combination if instruments.
loving the harp. this was a good choice!
I heard this as I let the IF playlist roll doing other things - this is really great! I love the very classic slide sound you have here and the piece is very bluesy cool.
Nice work - a good combination.
wow! this harp work sounds great!!! Unfortunately the guitar pictured isn't the one in the recording (we'll get to that tomorrow)
