I like the contrast of the trippy vocals mixed with the 50's chord progression.  It creates a really nice juxtaposition of the familiar with the bizarre.

Yes indeed! Sometimes it's almost a christmas song, and one bar after it's pure experimental stuff. Nice!

Man you do some great work. This is one of those. I love the vocal manipulation stuff.

Some of those vocal effects remind me of windowlicker by aphex twin! Has a super surreal effect.

I agree with some of the comments above.  Very cool vocal manipulations and the juxtaposition of trippy vocals and standard progression.

Weird yet somehow sounds pop, in a good way. I like how you create rhythms with the vocals.

It's like retro-pop from another dimension--the chord progression is familiar, but the pitch sliding makes it kind of disturbing, and the vocal edits and manipulation take it somewhere very strange.  Great stuff!

Agreed! You've taken a strangely catchy and creative approach here and I dig it!

Yes, retro-pop from another dimension was exactly the result I was aiming at. Thanks, all!

Dude, this is freaking awesome. I love what you did with the remix vocals and all the slowdown effects. Fav'd.

would like to hear this through kind of an oldie/grittier mastering filter or even onto tape. other than that it develops a little slow and whatnot, but I like it!

Thanks! Part of the alt.reality concept was to use up-to-date technology for an old art form. Interesting that you thought the development was slow; my wife thought it was too quick.

hi jim ... that is some trippy shit you made there! ... good work ;-> ... i do not know much about chord progression or the 50ies .. whatever you did works and is seriously relaxing and yellow bright with blue shades of body lotion at the correct temperature for an early morning prep talk ... keep it up!

i listen to music basically all day so my perception is weird on music, if something doesn't catch me right away I tend to lose interest. and maybe I listen to too much John Zorn and stuff like that heh.

Very nice combination of trippy mood and interesting effects, but excellently balanced by the pop chord progression. Well done!

Im hearing this in the middle of a Chemical Brothers record that doesnt exist. Totally "believing" right now.

Cliches have a nice grounding effect. Thanks!

Maybe I'll tackle the 60s next ;-)
