as rhf - ftko goes on the back burner - where it shall hopefully remain for some time to come another project has been ignited and doused as quickly.
tsug - lp2 [apologies to my attorney] has 4/5 working tracks all untitled as yet, i may have to move to leeds and live under wullie's fridge with ableton running off the coolant fluid in order to have any interaction which is what made the strings of knocklynn any good [maybe] in the first place.
so as i toiled today trying to rip-off dragonfly pie as politely as possible - there i saw an email from aaron "a song" it said.
the short email message & the enclosed track enthused me, and i also had the writing of two presentations to avoid - still going successfully.
blackmill road is a fantastic song, completely unlike any of aaron's previous work. not that it's fantastic aspects are what differentiates them from his other work, you know what i mean, jesus.
i added two shimmery violin lap steel parts, one clean tele and pooly syncopated bass, panned everything hard and filtered aaron and the clean guitar through the 'old time radio' setting on cool edit v2.0, kindly licenced by Peter Quistgard, who i just googled and he's done fuck all. that makes two of us. maybe he's on logic now...
some definition of melody [or at least an air of space in the mix] is required in the non-vocal verses. the banjo may have to come in from the cold at this point.
the alt-mix has 5/4 and 5/8 drums from the zoom 707II pedal at 102 and 86 bmp respectively. completely pointless.
