WITHIN

By PeterM on June 2, 2024 11:51 pm

This track started with a Norns Awake script plucky piece. Then a Hydrasynth bass line. Then a couple Hydrasynth lead lines. And then I made a swingy drum part. After that I felt I needed something to fill out the track a bit so I tried a few vocal parts and finally settled on this lovely Poe poem. I would have liked to spend some more time chopping the vocals to have the words fall on the beats a bit better, but I ran out of time.

This AMAZING poetry reading of Edgar Allen Poe's "A Dream Within a Dream" was created by "some dude" at his Public Domain Poetry Youtube channel. Check him out!

This has so wicked vibes to it. Super smooth evolving Lemon Jelly vibes.

Thank you! I was going for smooth and groovy, yet dark.

Thanks so much! Yes, I am feeling more and more like I should do my own vocals, so thanks for the push in that direction. I need it.
