Much Has Been Done …
Much Remains To Be Done
He played around with this for a while, tweaking and fiddling it into several variations.
Tempted to loop them together into one good trance track
This song is so brown. sounds like a ween outtake
How is it that it didn't occur to me until just a short time ago that this is very much like a Yello song? The low voice, the repetition, the instrumentation...
I let my guard down and trusted some good people and what happens...one of them implants something in my head, been there all day long.
I think it's a very important foundational thing that went on as a springboard to many future compositions that didn't come to fruition completely until even CM.
It's funny Ithink about it as boiling down from all my fav ear worms ro where it might have came from...in reality it may have spawned them all.
Well. That was... unexpected. I don't dislike it as much as I expected to at first.
yes that's Walter
When ( years) was Max Headroom on TV?
I think this is interesting as a historical artifact, something that shows what he was thinking during this time period. I look at it as kind of a signpost pointing the way to 11ToW, especially as I think about the backing track to Hat Too Flat being robotic in a similar way. Do we know for sure that is Walter's voice?
Reminds me of Laurie Anderson's work.
This is fun...and interesting. What do you think he is playing at/with here?
