I love the spoken voice and the perky perc, yes,
but the way you have put it all together and listening to the final track, well, it's just
oustanding!
well it sounds like its been a night for the clinking of ice in glasses,,, gotta say that photo is making me a bit thirsty.... this piece has a rich texture to it
I plugged my Fender Mustang directly into the Zoom H2 and monitored with head phones while sitting on my bed and played around. This is a compressed version of one of the things I did. I've been pretty sick the past few days but I needed to…

Line up:
2 tracks (right and left) of hammer dulcimer, fretless bass, and cameo appearances for both fretless guitar and electric psaltery.
I went out during cover of night (to avoid looking like a total crackpot) with a violin bow & Zoom H2 digital recorder and bowed various things in the neighborhood. This is the best - a beautifully resonant 4-way stop sign.
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 Ate My Xanadu
ADDENDUM TO THE INCIDENT REPORT
It’s burning.
Nothing else matters.
Nothing.
It’s burning and I love it.
It’s so clear
what is illusion and what is real.
I love the clarity.
I could drink it.
I could eat it.
I could…
This is a piece using 2 keyboards, an M-Audio 88es (vocal choir) and Alesis Q49 (brass choir) in 17 notes per octave. The objective was to use some functional xenharmonic chord progressions. I would be interested in knowing if you perceive the…
one could make any brass instrument to play in any temperament by valve placement and tubing length as far as I know. On the other hand 24 note per octave (and finer divisions) are avalable on wodwind and brass with using alternate fingering. On a recent trip to Urbana for a performance Peter's composition called for french horn playing in harmonic series tuning - but I guess the actual use comes close to 72 equal. The video of that is here: (go to about 16:40 .) http://www.youtube.com/user/clones98#p/u/30/OjY4LwBV8sM
Reg has got a kinda Bluesy political thing going on this one.....he's been reading the paper and watching the news..........it's a little too long but i think he makes a point.......do you?
Two ambient guitar tracks recorded independently and stick together. I broke my rule of not using distortion on a BL piece, for the first time, believe it or no.
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....

Compelling piece!
Wow...totally mind-bending!
I love the spoken voice and the perky perc, yes, but the way you have put it all together and listening to the final track, well, it's just oustanding!
cool
Whoa, seriously good. What a beautiful tone too.
well it sounds like its been a night for the clinking of ice in glasses,,, gotta say that photo is making me a bit thirsty.... this piece has a rich texture to it
Great job mate excellent really dig this sound
Very cool mate nicely played. Great tone on the piano great track.
Quite captivating! Reminds me of the Rocky Movies for some reason. Guess thats why I like it!! Sweeeeet!
lazy, mellow, melodic, musical journey,, very nice,, i hope you are feeling better soon, R
cool feel , different flavor with the mixed instruments Love the pic too
what a fun listen
Great percussion!
Cool beats and awesome phantom flavours..! Dark...midnight shipwreck dark! Now I want to go wrecking.
is this what they call post-psych-rock? Whatever it is it's great!
Nice one mate and very interesting.
So how does the harmonic series filter work? Does it just allow one to hear the lowest A, E and next to the lowest B? Wild stuff!
Nice transitions and enjoyed reading about your methods.
Some lovely melodic strands in here - love the sound of the dulcimer.
!!! Incredible!

I see you've taken up body levitation as evidenced by your avatar picture. :-)
your new avatar is freaky!
very cool sound - I like this piece quite a bit!

funky indeed!!
cool reg!
yes I do. Nice piece!
this sounds fantastic!
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.
