Tetris Drone

This is what happens when you play a guitar with a gameboy and an e-bow. Kind of noisy! Also, kind of awesome.

(Get Flash to see the track player.)

Deeply weird, sir. It'd be hard for me to approve of this more than I do.

...nicolin, I hope you heard this and thought of me because this track is bang on...

This is what I call "a CLUB track." (IOW fuck fuck hip-hop.) I would wear out a club with this. People who get it know where the party is in it.

BLF, you are on my A-list.

It is like playing Castlevania on acid at a Sonic Youth show.

Or something.

This was the 5th of 5, but the other 4 are pretty awful. I had to chop 2 minutes out of this one (useless extended silent intro and useless extended redundant outro) but other than that this was the only improvisation that did anything anyone else might want to hear.

Well, it's just another side of what you can expect from music. Ever listened to zero tolerance for silence by pat metheny ? It was a one time only studio performance. The listening is one time only too. But that's free (as in free jazz).

Fine texture here, funny contrasts. Thanks.

Flipping brilliant.

Huh, I like the feedback. Very fun experiment!

Experiment?

Weird. That's what I think everything but this is.

BLF, the fact that you edited it means that you intentionally got rid of the superfluous parts and kept the gooey nougat-y good parts.

Which anyone with ears and a soul can tell you did.

If it's a fluke, get on the the right path and DO IT AGAIN! This is a jam!

Flipping brilliant, indeed!

What happens at 2:04 is why I exist.

just an afterthought about the record I've mentionned previously in this thread : it's maybe better to borrow it to check before buying it.

The more I listen to this, the more I like it. Awesome.
