a slow kind of waltz im made for a performance years ago - in a new version
One glance then you look away,
The embarrassment you can not take,
I got a lifetime, I'll guess I wait,
So I can prove to you,
One chance to let me try again,
But this time yeah I'm gonna win,
Since I've unleashed all my innocence,
I'm gonna show what I can do
Yes I know, I was cruel,
I was sick, I was rude,
I was dumb, I knew I was,
Just A mistake to you
Yes you kno, im a waste,
I'm joke, just in the way,
I was lost, not awake
Aways disappointed you ooo
So please start another chapter
Just see the goal I'm after,
You say that it doesn't matter,
I've always been a fool,
Let's clean the slate and take my hand,
Learn from my self when I ran,
I will do it, I know I can,
Turn to the girl u knew
Dont hate me
Forever
Dont hate me
I've changed
Not feeling particularly well most of the week, so the fundamentals of the track didn't emerge until late in the week, with some simple drum parts, and bass. Initially I went for a sparse post-rock thing, but threw that all out when I reduced the drums to the simplest patterns, and re-built them as something I could reasonably play dubby bass against. (Two tracks of bass--one with cabinet plugin, and one with auto-filter and distortion, both side-chained against the kick) Having been listening to some Laswell projects, I put tables on there as well, and Ableton's Behr stringed instrument. As a last-minute addition, I tracked a bunch of guitar (Res-O through Vox Wah, into band-pass auto-filter), and played a lot with automating sends (one to a convolution reverb, one to LFO band-pass auto-filter into filter delay). M4L Humanizer on the drums and tabla, and full-chain master on the 2-mix.
Title from the wikipedia entry on the number 14:
Take a set of real numbers and apply the closure and complement operations to it in any possible sequence. At most 14 distinct sets can be generated in this way. This holds even if the reals are replaced by a more general topological space. See Kuratowski's closure-complement problem.
I didn't even make liner notes this time but I think I spent about an hour and ten minutes doing this.
I did it live in many takes using the Kilpatrick Phenol modular synthesizer and Kilpatrick Carbon sequencer.
No software, no processing, it's direct line in.
It's kind of long.
