Description:
This song has my wife singing. It was done using only loops. It's the first song I made on GB. Look forward to hearing some feedback.

Just a note: I had to upload this song to macjams since it was still set to play via a url. which is why it is shown as a newly submitted song.

Lyrics:
concentrate on the convulsive skiphop of the record
there, mallets fall dominoeing into slots
now the crackling sound of time cooking
the universe is skillet shaped, take that, physicists!bodily
rolling calm with all the nerves waving as a tattered banner
each stream manifested on a different frequency of sound
time pulses as the universe's heartbeat
gently rolling over all space; calm; ever unfolding
always the music of silence� (x4)

Hardware:

anyone else notice a similarity to bjork in vocal style?
combined with what's her face from the breeders i think,
more noticeable during the raw vocals.

good stuff - reminds me of Massive Attack. I love that
first drum loop - is it one of the ones included with GB??

Thanks! A lot of people have told me it sounds like Massive Attack. I'm going
to have to check them out so I can hear for myself. My wife likes them but I've
never really heard any of their stuff. And the drum loop is umm, I can't
remember where I got it but it is not a GB loop.

I like the sense of fun in this piece. It should be obvious
that the vocals are what make this track, though the loops
are fine.

Is that the wife in the photo?

Song actually reminds me more of Emiliana Torrini than Bjork, but then she
reminds me of Bjork, so all comes full circle.

Thanks. I agree that it's the voice which stands out. The loops were just put together in 5 minutes. And yes, that is my wife in the pic. She's dressed as a flower for halloween.

The Bjork influence comes through loud and clear
in the vocals, and I think this is is emphasized by
the lyrics, which don't have a natural rhythm of
their own. The way that your wife concentrates
on each individual sound and creates a rhythm as
she moves from phoneme-to-phoneme is very Bjork.

I really like that.

She's stolen all of the attention from your loop
construction, which I think you did excellently.

I hope to hear more tracks from you.
