---|---|---|---|---|
A Herd of Turtles | Snow Crystals | Jazz | We wanted to start off our REM project with a holiday feel original. The sound was inspired by a poem my daughter wrote when she was 9 was we use in the intro. We recorded through Audacity and used no sounds other the the bass and piano. | https://alonetone.com/Aherdofturtles/tracks/snow-crystals |
AMUC | Before The Frost | Electronic | I was able to get through one song without it thematically turning into nightmare fuel. (It's a Christmas miracle!) | https://alonetone.com/amuc/tracks/before-the-frost |
Big Rips | Rosemerry Christmas | Pop | TIME TO BUM EVERYONE OUT: Christmas Bonus Challenge - short song about my grandmother that passed just after Christmas last year. | |
Big Rips | Smockin | Rock | The chorus was inspired by a lady in an SUV smoking with her windows up screaming at pedestrians legally crossing a street (among other people). The rest is just normal depressing stuff. | https://bigrips.bandcamp.com/track/smockin |
BogStomp | Barfly | Rock | A simple story about drinking in a dark bar and listening to the wisdom of my fellow barflies. | https://alonetone.com/bogstomp/tracks/barfly |
Chalices | Cake | Pop | I want this to sound perfect bc I have SO MANY FEELINGS and it would be great if I could channel them into art without any hiccups but MIXING IS HARD. | https://chalices.bandcamp.com/track/cake-rough-mix |
Chris Sexton | Orfeas dream | Rock | Wrote a funky little riff and then kept expanding, the bridge has to be the best bridge I have ever written = ) ran out of time to finish the lead guitar work as I would like it. | https://soundcloud.com/chris-sext0n |
Dandy From Home | I Can't Bring | Electronic, Rock | My feelings toward this song swing wildly everytime I hear it and it's a miracle it ever got finished | https://soundcloud.com/dandyfromhome/i-cant-bring |
David Cooper Orton | Carillon Canticle - Variation 2 | Classical, Folk, World, & Country | Intended as a variation based on the folk melodies known as Carol of the Bells, and ultimately entirely nothing like the source material | https://davidcooperorton.bandcamp.com/track/carillon-canticle-variation-2 |
David Thorley | Christmas Songs and Unlit Trains | Pop, Folk, World, & Country | I really thought this was a funny idea, and had no inkling it would come out so unremittingly bleak. I hope all R.E.M-ers had merrier christmases than this one. | https://alonetone.com/dalwynth/tracks/christmas-songs-and-unlit-trains |
Evil Suitcase | Every Day Is Christmas Without You | Rock | I was doing a Christmas song anyway, so I used it for this month's tune. I'm nothing if not lazy. Had some help on the drums and backing vocals from friends. | |
Jai Mohan | comfortable | Jazz, Pop | ||
Jai Mohan | hope | Pop, Jazz | ||
Jai Mohan | museum | Jazz, Classical | it's about two supervillains falling in love | |
Jeff Burchett | Rumble | Electronic | This track is a departure in style for me - very retro, electronic funk, reminiscent of a mod tracker sound, filled up with samples. | https://jeffmakesnoise.bandcamp.com/album/rumble |
Joel Glenn Wixson | Moving On | Jazz | It's just a silly song. | |
Luna Ponderosa | Play Me Out | Folk, World, & Country | With lyric informed by a late night last month when we had to euthanize our ancient cat, I played this simple tune on my second worst guitar. | https://siralfrediv.bandcamp.com/track/play-me-out-2 |
Luna Ponderosa | What's Under The Tree? | Classical | Happy solstice! Here's a little impromptu, with my best wishes for reflection and growth in the coming year. | https://siralfrediv.bandcamp.com/track/whats-under-the-tree |
Magic Bullet | A Soluble Symphony (1st Movement) | Noise | New Years Day, for most folk, follows a week of unbridled excess, the large 'special' celebratory meals, all that rich food, all those sweet extras, and possibly even a drink or two (no, really)! We figured that after all of that, the ONLY thing anybody would really want to hear from us would be the comforting 'plink-plink-fizz' of an indigestion or hangover remedy, gently doing its thing in a glass tumbler full of hope. I recorded Skit (hangovers),he recorded me (indigestion),and we lovingly weaved those recordings into a four movement symphony, the first of which is before you now. No special effects, all au natural, everything you hear was achieved with mixing techniques alone. The Magic Bullet, keeping it real... | https://alonetone.com/magicbullet/tracks/a-soluble-symphony-(in-four-movements) |
Mikey Hogan | Some Call It Christmas | Pop | I wasn’t going to write a Christmas song but Salman talked me into it. I got a lyric idea to sing about the excessive waste of the season and the song grew from there. I'm not perfectly happy with every single lyric but I'm pleased I stuck to "Some call it..." all the way through to the end. | https://alonetone.com/MikeyHogan/tracks/some-call-it-christmas |
Rob Parker | Cold Comfort | Rock | Bad edits, sloppy playing, bad singing, bass is mixed too low... So pretty good overall. | https://alonetone.com/robertjames1971/tracks/cold-comfort |
Salman Ahad | Feelings of Fall in Winter | Classical, Electronic | Kinda my Christmas track | |
Savory Flakes | The Cobra's Fang | Pop | That morning after feeling. All hail Tiki! | https://soundcloud.com/user-975931965/the-cobras-fang?si=564d4519f021412086752845aeba8850&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing |
Schmex | Defined | Rock, Classical | "If you start something, finish it, no matter the result. You can spend your whole life rewriting the same piece." Nelson Keyes | https://alonetone.com/rosteiner/tracks/defined |
The Wizards of Vomit | Babylonian Numeral System | Noise, Rock | https://thewizardsofvomit.bandcamp.com/track/babylonian-numeral-system | |
Twilight Sleep | Homeostasis | Electronic | ||
Umbrella State Broadcasting | Blind Colours - Signal Lost Beyond the Sun (Xmas Cheer Mix by Umbrella State Broadcasting) | Electronic, Rock | A somewhat Christmassy remix. It's been a while since I've worked with Blind Colours! | |
