I had a visitor this weekend and on sunday we just started jamming a little bit. At one point we had a nice collection of sounds together and the beginnings of an idea. Without her knowing I said; let's see if we can do something with this theme, and so the recording continued. Since the batteries were still dead from saturdays performance I used about everything except the stomps. And as this was totally unrehearsed and created on the spot there was little pre-production happening (if I had invested a little bit more in eq'ing then; I'd not have so much problems afterwards)
Today I picked up the recording and put a huge effort into producing this to an acceptable result. Still there's this harsh crunch on the lower mids which I think was caused by the springreverb and with all my might I tried to tame that; partly succesfull I think.
Anyhow; afterproduction: 2x PLPar3 (5 down-points around the 180-400hz), IQ4Pro; Stereo-expander; Otium Compadre, some internal dithering
Enough with the words I'd say
Searching (feat. Izzy)
192kbs/14.5M/10,35m
Enjoy

I remember: Strange, weird, good (or something).

hmmm, my loss; your frustration.... I know the feeling all too well having lost such pieces of text.
Strange weird and good (or something) suffice though
Cheers Thomas

This is an interesting track, Mark. Comes out with a sort of nightmare atmosphere, kind of like those stretches in B horror movies from the 70s, where the heroine has a sort of paranoiac meltdown midway through.
I know it falls outside of the objectives of this track, but as I listened I kept hoping for Izzy to sing. Her voice is sufficiently interesting to want to hear more, and I think a song-like structure laid over top your pulsewarble would make for a great listen.

Thanks Steve; indeed we never set out to do a song, it was rather an unexpected jam even with spur of the moment lyrics and sounds. Somehow it all fell together and I felt there was something in it worth sharing and spending some more time on afterproduction.
Who knows on a next occassion we may dive a little deeper and get a bit more organized upfront. It was allready a great moment hearing this surface from the jam, so it tastes like more

i was able to enjoy this for what it is ...
with some front end planning , i think this concept could bear some further explorations and shows great promise ...

What I can say is that for a future-jam (which will be quite likely) more and better preps will take place.
