I did a brief stint where I used loop libraries.
I still feel as though this track should say "written by Robert Rich".
This is also why I no longer do loop libraries.
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…
The psyche is a weird place, I'll just talk about it musically.
The piece begins with the sounds of Sudara's autoharp, the weeping woodwind sounds of the clarinetist from Megafauna Lacrymosa , and a low kick-like percussive sound, which is…
This is one track where I can say, without reservation, that I am really happy with how it came out.
I worked up a beat I liked with 3 Stylus RMX parts making good use of chaos and time designer for the breaks.
For the first time I really…
and you didn't even have to spend the night to get it.
another one from the morning sessions...
Glu guides you through an instructional song, revealing secrets along the way.
Instrumentation: Director's comments included! beat boxing, real swords, acoustic guitar, synthesizer, vocals, drum programming, tabla, and tambourine. My apologies…
I've had a bit of a love/hate relationship with this one.
I enjoyed making the beats and think that part came out pretty good but everything after that felt rather haphazard and didn't feel right to me.
I was close to abandoning the track…
One of four tracks I did for the August 2009 24 hour challenge. This was the last track I did, and it shows.
I was pretty tired after finishing 3am chill, and had to mess round for ages mangling loops and trying out different things before…
Written, recorded, and mixed in 24 hours. August 01-02, 2009, from 6am to 6am.
Instrumentation: Two acoustic guitars, electric guitar (picked and bowed), fretless bass, about 7 different flutes, two tabla drums, rattles, tambourine, didgeridoo…
Okay I need to say a few things. Please read before listening!
I did not do the 24 hour challenge but I did try and hang around in the chatroom as much as possible with Glu, SisterS, and ChrisM while they battled through it.
At about midnight…
I listened to the full 24. :)
I dig what you've done here and would definitely call this music and not noise. I would like to see you create some separate sections. Like, a breakdown for instance, where you go for something totally different rhythmically before returning to the original idea.
Keep on experimenting! :)
New stuff has been slow in coming for me lately, but I found this lurking on my hard drive from a while back. Frankly don't remember how I did it except that it was all live to 2 tracks and at one point one of my synth patches glitched out on…
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…

instrumentation:
Mostly electric guitar and violin bow. The end is accompanied by my blubbing and a haunting sound recorded by Sudara (an ebow against what I think is a piano string... he'll have…
Honestly I have no idea where this came from or how.
I was messing with Omnisphere patches and came across a lovely, flutey, breathy sound that put me in mind of the scenes inside the monolith at the end of 2001. I setup a Rytme pattern to…
I'm learning to play piano and my teacher has given me 'Old Joe Clarkes Boogie' to play. For 2 weeks it has kicked my ass. But I'm getting to grips with it now and this is my revenge!
The musical parts were recording using my Kurzweil SP3X…

Enjoying all your new tracks. Nice way to start the day!
Haha! Yeah!
Lovely melody...makes me think of a shy dance.
Ooh lovely airy feel! Gorgeous!
I'm there. We can share a bottle of cider. I'll tell you all my secrets.
Love it when the vocals come in and also that bass part at about 2 minutes- great stuff
Oh yeah, I like this very much, it's that amazing bassy beat. Love the whooshing too!
Oh my, that's really pretty.

The essence of a great sound!
Oh right, I was going to ask you where you come from in Britain. Cleverrr! Clever song.

Who knew that destroying a piano could be so beautiful. Hang on - How'd you manage to pull that one off? :)
Nice! How come your demos don't really sound like demos? :)
Congrats! Nice tune. And perfection is overrated, because if it were perfect, there'd be nowhere else to go but down, right? :)
And now it's time for your Local on the 8's. Yeah, baby!
Wow. I am always amazed at how you can blend all of these unrelated elements into a very musical sounding track. How do you do it?? :)
Great job on this one! Keep it up. :)
Where on earth do you come up with this stuff? I'm in awe.
Freaking hilarious!
Digging the glitchy bits and the synths!
Really enjoyed all of your 24 hour creations. Congrats for finishing the challenge!
Holy wow! I can't even fathom being this creative for an afternoon, let alone 24 straight hours!
I listened to the full 24. :) I dig what you've done here and would definitely call this music and not noise. I would like to see you create some separate sections.

This is fantastic as always. Keep 'em coming!
Hooray we have a theme! I continue to be amazed at your production skills.
I've always wondered what your Uilleann pipes music sounded like, since I saw it mentioned in your profile. Keep it coming. I want some more. :)
Love the atmosphere! I would never have guessed what instruments you used to create this if you hadn't listed them.
love the breakdown around 1:45. Nicely done!
A nice relaxing end to a hectic day!
wonderful use of textures and very cinematic as others have said :)
Love the blending going on in this one. And what a title! :)
