Sinking Feeling

By Jim Wood on August 13, 2016 3:14 pm

Featuring the Underwater Coyote Swing Band (now back in our neighborhood). Voices: English as a Second Language podcast "A Boating Accident."

I'm a little sleep deprived as I'm listening to this, and I think it made my brain melt a little.  Nice track.  Very trippy.

Wow.  Crazy audio processing!!!!

Always crazy, always brilliant.

Crazy and ellegant Soundprocessing!

Nice track, I was smiling all the time. The bass(maybe a tuba) sound is very cheerful. And i had an image of some cartoons with melting brains, thanks to CosmicCairns.

You mean this is one of these especially nice guitars/basses. I had to google it...
What effects do you use on it?

Woah, Coyote bass yikes really cool processing with everything.  Nice job!

Not that complicated: just a snippet of a snarl, re-pitched at half-speed-- then dropped into a Simpler.with a low pass filter envelope.

My snarl will go on.

Hahaha..... an amazing choice of 2 sound sources.  I'm surprised no one else thought to combine the two.  Awesome.

With the number of coyotes in our immediate neighborhood, it seemed obvious.

Man it must be freaky having coyotes floating around the neighbourhood.  The closest I get would be foxes.  No where near as scary.  Do they approach/attack humans?  Foxes just run and hide.

They usually only attack in packs (if you're larger than, say, a small dog, cat or rodent). We also get the occasional fox.

Oh, that's ok if they only attack in packs.  Jebus.  Haha. 
Would love to hear them in the wild!
