Listening to WB with my SO this week. SO, when this came on: "Who is this?  This is beautiful!" (cue hacking cough )

Lovely voice; happy birthday!

Happy birthday! Good singing! You and the birds! The power line noise came stronger later in the song, sounds like you harmonized it a bit humans are good at adapting. Can't stay mad at humanity, you just have to take a step back...

I've said it before and I'll say it again -- your recording aesthetics and environment incorporation is nothing short of brilliant and every time I hear your work I am jealous of the sincerity of your sounds. (I think the cough-left-in has that same humanistic touch of genius as the edits of your conversation with your dad.)

Chk-chk-chk-chk, happy birthday!

i've always loved environmental sounds, always incorporated them into my music, but this escalates that to something of true beauty
to me it feels like a tender moment shared with a friend, whether that friend is another person, yourself, or nature itself. it's something i really long for right now, something i used to make more time for
my birthday is on the 11th, perhaps i will go out and record my own prairie song

sorry for the late response, thanks! I think the prairie is nice company. Also I think it's just my thing now to leave the coughs in ahahaha, I always cough when I sing it seems.

thanks!

thank you! it was a very peaceful morning after a very hectic and stressful two weeks. i'm glad the powerline noise came through in the recording, it was really loud and noticeable, so I shouldn't be surprised.

thanks as usual! sorry again for the late reply on this, keeping up with wb has been a challenge, replying and communicaitng with folks is an added thing. thanks for the birthday wishes and compliments. Also kudos for noticing the chk-chk-chk noise. I think I was trying to warn the red wing black birds I'm coming, because I notice they make that noise as a warning when an intruder comes along.

yes! i just pulled out my phone and did a do

thanks, offbrand! As I told you before, I really like your music and it gives me a lot of inspiration. If you're interested, I'd like to show you an art piece I did in 2019 that was inspired by your piece "half-awake"

I'm glad that my stuff has that kind of shared-moment vibe to it. I think it mostly just comes from my low-tech experience and basic recording set up, but I also like the impermanence and life of a live performance, and nature is important to me and my art, so I feel most inspired and open to creativity when I'm out in the field. Refining things is sometimes a drag for me, and I find the magic dissipates if I press on things too much. Happy early birthday
