you know it's working when you feel your testicles climb a
little higher; tighten

random: the sailboat one.

i grew up listening to a lot of celtic fiddle music. i even
took violin lessons for a bit. and i found the motions of a
violin bow coming back to me by the end of that recording

it was a sequencing/tuning experiment after the keystep
crashed and scrambled some of thad's canoe

and, wow, i think i need to try more of this. because the
303 can... very fiddle

0:32 ~ sliding the canoe down the sand, a little moment of
disconnect in between tactile sensations as it begins to
float

0:56 ~ THWOOMP you penetrate the membrane, switch positive
and negative space

2:00 ~ helixing twizzler spirals of resonance as i'm winding
the 303 out to give you exactly two (2) cycles of the whole
thing, what you want to hear, where it's spinning you around
at 1/32 using tangent lines jumping ahead in the spiral

and the whole opening in general is like: am i using the 303
right? if not, what settings should i use to make lazy acid
lords shit their pants?

and people are like SSSH SHUTUP NEVER EXPLAIN and, actually,
you lot understand what this song is about. because you're
involved. that's also kind of rare for music like this

and the 303 line is canoe shaped.

but then if you've zero context and you're scrolling by and
see "thad's canoe (KMFDM remix)" you'll probably choke on
your milk and squirt it out through your nose. one has to be
sure track titles also work on that level

haptique = haptic + technique

the "pretend you're teh afx" thing was good for a hoot, for
a bit, but it's almost like a pyramid scheme innit?

i reached a certain point where it was like "alright i'm
really really not aphex" i'm my own strange shark weasel
something i dunno. and it wasn't like "i'm not as good" or
"i'm better" it was just, you know, i have a bit of a
different personality and so does my music? but i can still
listen to him closely and maybe someday he'll rip me off
back

i do wonder about how he goes about his music day. he was
speaking of "holes in his collection" or such at one point.
it sounded like a rigorous thing, i dunno, these synths with
that sequencer, we haven't tried that permutation

i am more like: i have just discovered how to make the 303
do fiddle music on my last track and excited puppy
squirms
i want to do MORE OF THIS and perhaps i could
razz on celtic moods and call it CELTIC MODS 47, yes? but
then i feel like haptique has one more in it before i hide
(good in my hed) mix and call it an album. i am thinking,
like, it's "floornado" and obviously i need to start with a
good kick drum and at some point it's like the kick drum
gets peeled off the floor and starts spinning around, and,
yes, i know how to make my delay pedals do this and

never mind i have to work. i can't afford a tape machine
because no one buys flac

bit different right

it really does feel like a chatbot in my head. but it's one
i've built from my own source material

[indulging brain as if it were a child] "Alright
then, and what tempo is Floornado?"

...and if it makes sense, i caught a flash of... 160BPM!
180!!! no, no... 133bpm idealish dance tempo... 137, it is
137 BPM

which is slightly fast but not too fast; reasonable? but why
137? i get no answer but dammit, this will be relevant
later. it's a hole in my collection

i was thinking: did i accidentally lift this, like i could
swear i lifted most of some 80s/90s TV show theme with the
live keys for the Paul McCartney remix of floornado? so i
search it.

i think i have this name first, yes? celtic mods? closest is
lemon demon's mouth moods; i think that might be what
triggered a "possible dupe" vibe

but the search results were inspiring. i have review blurbs
i can quote on the back cover already:

this is actually genuinely bothering me. tip of my tongue
feeling. if you start at, like, 0:56, a second or two later:
Wau doo floor-naaad-oooo *flourish* *rising flourish*¹

and i see, like [character] [played by] in my head, like TV
show intro. i cannot ever recall my music doing that... at
least in the last few years... so i feel like i've stolen, i
dunno, some shit the drummer from the police did. maybe i
named the remix wrong

¹ this is really how i think about live keys, of which i
know not which i am in.

oh... i mean, i'm playing the track name as a musical
phrase? floor-nad-ooo... whoooaAaauuWAU

and the bassline in thad's canoe, like,
thads.can.oe.thads.can.oe

it's not all the time everywhere but i can't help but do
this when i find it

i also suppose i utterly don't know what i'm talking about
on this level as no one's ever let me near a large system,
but i can see people losing their shit to the mccartney
remix about 1:32 to the point where solo cups are vomiting
beer in a froth and no. one. cares

i think sailboat might also work live in a more smooth way
