Good to hear you again, Jim. My music is all tested on animals... that is, I make them listen while I'm making it.  No ducks, though.

Welcome back!  It's nice to hear your bizarre vocal manipulations are as potent as ever!

Have you tried the milkshake, duck? It's delicious, Jim!

I keep choking on the feathers.

Welcome back, Jim!  Beautiful spacious melody, delightfully confusing speech mangling, which nonetheless has a classic dimensional-blender groove--really glad to hear it!  Wonderful work!

Lovely manipulations/edits returning for 2018.  Making incomprehensible comprehensible. heart

Welcome back. Nice track

Nice vocalslicings embedded in this ultragrooving track. Milkshake Duck has moviethemequality.

nice smile

It is great to have you back for another one, Jim!

AS always, classy warbling. Thumbs up for the experimentalists. That mallet-ish lead is killer.

thanks for the new vocab word jim! 

Mmmm milkshake! Very cool Jim, swirling in the beat as i type smile

My milkshake brings all the *QUACK* to the yard

Great vocal edits - huge fan of how you flipped it

Serious chop!

That's a fun Duck for sure! Liked the part toward the end when vocal and melodic sound are more in unison. Nice work, welcome back.

really like the vocal manipulations, reminded me of Prefuse 73. Great vibe from the beat as well, interesting tension/mystery.... makes me feel some cyberpunk decker is hacking through vocal phonems to crack a voice identification protocol wink

Milkshake duck loool. Funny. smile

Sounds exciting and unusual in a good way. Fav.

Thanks, guys! Only cats used for testing purposes (they totally ignore it).

Prefuse 73 is one of my favorites.

Great stuff - those mallets are fab. Strange how I get lulled into the choppy momentum. Makes me long for the return of Severed Heads.

Nice Vocal Slicing
