Nice…reminds of the scenes in movies when someone visits a mental institution and people in slippers walk up to them and strike up conversations.

My favorite of Speck’s mixes is still Sixty Beans, but this one is really wonderful. An incredibile weird-melancholy mood.

I find myself editing my comments because I have in mind what you said during our interview about comments. I like this track, and find it oddly fun and disturbing at the same time. The disparate qualities of the viola and the various vocal parts is definintely engaging.

Quote: SackJo22…have in mind what you said during our interview…Me also. I was thinking that this was a good example of that thing I said, or tried to say, about how samples are bound to sound good together if they’re gathered based not on bpm or key or even genre but only on that undefinable ‘they appeal to me’ factor. Of course I guess that depends on what ‘sounds good together’ means to the individual. For me “disparate, oddly fun and disturbing” fill the bill. So thanks.

Oh snap.

This is. Well.

Einstein once said: “Simplify as much as possible, but no further”. The corollary is equally true - you should strive to push the envelope with new ideas and interpretations as far as possible, but no further - because there’s a point where it strays into muddled chaos. This track, more than most I’ve heard, creates a new definition for that balance.

Which is an incredibly annoying and long-winded way of saying that I like it. A lot.

You can probably guess that I had strayed during the making of but, as is often the case, in the end spent the majority of the process receding.

After the digital interpretation of finger nails on chalk board, the groove was on.

Quote: texasradiofish… digital interpretation of finger nails on chalk board… I once used a sample, I think I took it from a yoga instruction tape, that this opening reminds me of - “The pain is just… part of the pleasure.”

Thanks for sharing your toys. Someday I’ll get a sample pack together from my toy box to upload.

Maybe I’ll just play this in answer to anyone asking, “Are you all right?” To me it epitomises the feeling of trying to appear fine. I like it very, very much.

I’m at a loss for words… but that was certainly an experience… a new one at that. Thanks.

Didn’t get this the first time, came back for a second listen and now I’m fine too.

I like how the orchestra tuning gradually becomes the song, with oompah loompahs singing to a martial guck bucket… And suddenly disappearing.
