Description:
Imagine an etiquette consultant sitting down to write her daily column...and getting a bit carried away ;)
Every now and then, creatively, I like to wander off the beaten path and try something different.
Well, here I am again...
When Mungo posted "What Not To Do," I found the piece very intriguing.
I downloaded it and, in the midst of recording a couple of days later, improvised some vocal tracks, following the theme of the title.
I was at a bit of a loss on what to do with the additions, as far as mixing them all effectively, when Bryn offered to mix it.
Thanks, B! :)
And thanks to Mungo, too, for encouraging further experimentation on his track!
Biba_nova: Added atmospherics, synth tracks, final mixing in Logic.
Mungo: guitar bed (track "What Not To Do").
Mystified: Vocals, frantic typing, initial mixing in GB2.
Hardware:
Lots o' things!
Software:
GB2 and Logic Pro

My association: To Mungo's dreamlike landscape you have added this lady consultant, who is awake but seem to be in some feverish dream state. So the scene becomes even more surrealistic since she is kind of fysically there (the keyborad tells) in this mystifying landscape.
I came to this song after having browsed through Vlad Gerasimov's fantastic free wallpapers (www.vladstudio.com). Many of them suits the moods of this post perfectly well.
Have you reflected over how much of a visal painter you are here (and elsewhere)? [ Reply to This ]

Don't tell me what not to tell you, unless you want to, that is. &mdash 01/04/07 - 07:16:26 AM
The idea is brilliant, inspired, etc.! But you shouldn't have done it... :-) [ Reply to This ]

Well, I never expected this. I'm pleased as Punch.
Well done, Cat and Bryn!
BTW, the character you've developed here could lead to a lucrative career as an internet advice columnist .... [ Reply to This ]
Okay, NOW... &mdash 01/04/07 - 07:58:35 AM
...the click of my keys on the keyboard here has become spooky....
This is awfully good. Recalls a more desperate version of Laurie Anderson's 'O Superman' from back in the day...
Perfectly realized on all fronts and by all contributors....

Wow, chillingly creative! &mdash 01/04/07 - 08:39:02 AM
I felt like I was transported into a n unwritten Bette Davis movie where her mind is racing and she's trying so hard to act normal tfor her friends and relatives but she's paranoid, oh, so paranoid and she can't stop thinking all these bitter, angry thoughts but she was raised to be oh, so genteel and can't express it, can't deal with what she's feeling inside and she's going snap, she's going to take it out on someone, some man, but not yet., because she has to hold herself together and act Normal, Sane, Calm, Ladylike, Proper, Polite.
You portrayed her perfectly. A reminder for us to not hold our feelings in. [ Reply to This ]

Now that's atmospheric... &mdash 01/09/07 - 11:25:13 AM
...and kinda creepy, in a relaxing and soothing kind of way.
A little bit of "It's calm", "Yeah, a little TOO calm" kind of thing going on, I guess.
Whatever it is - it works.
