Working With Laser Like Focus

The Smoking Trout's Quest for the Holy Dumpling continues! When we left our travelers they had just been given a tip that they needed to travel from New Mexico to Oaxaca for the next leg of their journey. This latest track is basically an instrumental interlude but it re-samples the holy dumpling ingredient list that was recited during the last episode by a "Sufi sitting on the sidewalk serenely spouting scripture from the Transcendental Dharma of the Holy Dumpling".

I started this one, Jeff infused it with some incredibly creative experimental guitar and electronic touches, Stephen killed it on rhythm and lead guitar once again, and joining us for the second (but not the last) time, Masa a.k.a. Tot reinforced the groove by adding a really nice additional drum beat.

as much as I hate doing this, some don'ts:

don't private message me to listen to your tracks. don't hit me up for promotion, tit for tat listens, likes, or reposts. i don't follow, out of principle, people with disproportionately large followers to follow ratios. these accounts always harvest followers and will unfollow. i do my best to listen to followers' tracks. if I like what I hear, I follow back. I am active on SoundCloud, and do my best to be a good citizen, which includes a lot of time dedicated to listening.
