adrift and untethered

By jbarket on Yesterday 11:38 pm

another shot at building the techmo machine.

I think this is a technical step forward, but a musical side step at best. this one evolves on its own significantly more--right down to potentially changing the core melody everything is built around. I've got a few things on my list to increase the groove, but more than anything I think this needs space.

I got super inspired by jam & spoon and one of the things that immediately struck me with a lot of their tunes is how full everything seems while still being pretty sparse at times.

the audio is from gemini 8. short version, first attempted docking with another space craft does not go well, and they just tumble end over end. neil armstrong and david scott are ice cold discussing and then fixing this nightmare, and it felt like a good backdrop.

thanks for listening

one of my fav Jam & Spoon tracks of all time is "follow me," so I was excited seeing it in the description and you deliver!

i'm in a room surrounded by all sorts of technology late at night. oh and there is a robotic cat that is hungry in need of recharging. clearly the track cuts off when the cat jumps on the multitrack hitting the stop button.
