dogs always notice the hoovers. watching a dog i had years
ago go "WHUUUT?" when the hoovers started dropping in
"hajnal" by snares -- that's comedy

the intro, to me, is like a 256-color DOS animation of water
dropping from a tree branch to a fern, then from the fern
into a lake.

then a drum loop. upgrade from drips to a bit of running
water. a slight dramatic pause.

then 303 and stacked drum loops, wallop, torrent

then about 0:33 things are just kinda beyond words

0:44 i've spent three days on the first 40 seconds and i've
been neglecting everything else so i just kind of squeeze it
out because i have to get back to the rest of my life...

...and, now i kind of regret that. the first forty seconds
or so are pefect. the rest is a bit muddy, it could be
perfect, i didn't make it perfect, rrrrr. bothering me.
bothering. me. i think i will go back and do more work on
this trax. when i have time. ugh. i want to spend all day on
it right now and i can't

i'm starting to get a feel for how you can imply melody that
isn't there with clever gating.

if you have a detroit doodoo noise and a hoover and they're
being bent around, out of tune with each other in a
particular way, the ear can get confused and have trouble
deciding which one of them is the root pitch.

cut one or the other out of the mix, and your ear snaps to
the remaining one as the winner. then you restart the cut
note, and instead of hearing them fight, you hear it as a
chord...

attentional slight of hand very suited to an add internet
derp like me

very nice epic i enjoy

the last chord of the sequence loop is it out of key? just
wondering why it sounds weird to me.

the pitch bends on the 303 go a little too far that last
round, yes. it actually gave me a mild freak-out when i was
writing stuff. after i played that last measure, i'd skip
back to the beginning of the song and everything sounded
horribly wrong. i was shitting myself thinking it was all
just a mess and i'd missed it, then it sounded great again
the next day. until i hit that measure at the end, and
replayed it...

i had the same thing happen to me on mushrooms -- pitches
will bend around and i was freaking out because i felt like
music was broken -- but here it's just like swishing
mouthwash before drinking a glass of OJ. i generally avoided
listening to the last measure when working on the song.

last measure was something else, i think

in any case, i might remove that, because it has the
potential to destroy certain people's ability to listen to
the song multiple times in a row.
