Exactly what the title says.

Sat Dec 17, 21:20 - 22:20. Going for more of a texture than a song here. I heard a video of gerbils eating brussel sprouts the other day.

Also, I’m kind of lazy this week as usual, and it’s more fun to create noise than songs on occasion.

Sun Dec 18, 8:55 - 9:05. I thought, since I’m making sounds, may as well bust out the Oberheim Xpander and try using that in this track. It’s not a very intuitive synthesizer, but it has that interesting old school polyphonic synth feeling to it.

10:00 - 10-35. Mixing and software effects application for maximum strangeness, yet clarity.

I'm probably most happy with the chirpy noises in the background that were made with the drum machine.

1h 45m. I hope it’s an experience. Someone label this for me if you listen to it, I don't even know what to call this kind of stuff.

It's like what 70s sci-fi film-makers thought that marching band music will sound like in space in 2225AD.

We've since learned that it'll be slower because marching space is hard with the zero gravity boots, etc..
