My fav sky high track, great vocal textures and atmos.

I'm loving your sound so far! Great, dark, and gritty!

SÓLSTAFIR are different. Their unique blend of metal with beautiful melodies, psychedelic moments and a strong undercurrent of classic / hard rock comes as varied and at times appealingly bizarre as the landscapes of their native Iceland. Their fifth full-length "Ótta" is the logical continuation of the musical course this four-piece adopted on the highly acclaimed forerunner "Svartir Sandar" (2011). Expect the unexpected, such as seduction by subtle strings or a hypnotic banjo. This album needs to be heard again and again to peel back layers of details, each different and yet always revealing the same: great songs – all of them.

She (Singing & Feeling) 6.09

•	Homemade percussion tools include an old music box, drumsticks slapped together, shaker egg, all played throughout & recorded in layers.
•	Vocal stretching & shortening is central to this track
•	Vocal sample from Rachel Gaskin – Whitrod
•	Drip recording from 343763_Inspectorj_dripping_medium_a at freesound.org

This track was inspired by taking the one word sample from Rachel singing the word “singing.”  She works in a variety of different genres & with a variety of different music collectives & collaborations. I totally adore her passionate & eclectic vocal range. For this track I sang alongside her & then took my vocal, reversed it & stretched it, began to overlay them all together & then things started to happen. New words (strange words) & sounds crept in via the monotonality processes where I chopped & stretched the vocals & then the vocals really developed into something else, despite being essentially nonsensical, the words began to make sense to me. Admittedly Liz Fraser & the Cocteau Twins are a massive influence here. It was just stopping raining at the time so the external sounds of that have been enhanced here with a downloaded drip sound. The fuzz & distortion were enhanced by me. I have added a grungeliser effect to give several tracks a crackle, again, this mimicked the rain outside on the roof, which muffled my listening capabilities so I decided it worked for me somehow as it gave me a different listening experience. I reproduced that ‘muffling’ through a crackle effect because what I noticed through all of the muffling from the rain splattering on the roof was the purity & clarity of Rachel’s one word vocal through the monitors, I wanted to keep & balance both that clarity with the varying splattering & dripping effects of the rain, so I aimed for that.
