A teaser and version unto its own anticipating an upcoming release of 'Symphony Number Four' by George Brecht.

Using a Sony Microcassette Recorder M-560V makes an ever evolving and alive piece of music. 

George Brecht really got me carried away. 

Thanks to Josten Myburg for putting me onto this piece.

Ode to a Clone

$900

And I know that you want so much more than this, can we be eternal, ourselves projecting, the future flowing like a river, we swim upstream like a salmon not knowing why it's got to go, but driven to the top of the mountain to the source, to its end when it gets there
Your optimism will get us where we need to go but I'm scared that you'll be let down when we don't get anywhere, no explosions, bright lights or anything of that kind, it's all in the mind and the way we relate to ourselves, each other and the rest of the world in decline 
But it feels like we'll be just fine
I'll sing it all the time, you'll hear me crying out but you won't listen, you run and hide, it won't register, 'til it comes from the inside
My dark visions of what's to come; everything comes undone, return to the start, the origin, defending our family overrun by animals, we never got a guernsey into heaven, but this NSA bunker is equipped for thousands of years, it's a quality brand and it's fun, I think our children will wanna come
We'll be just fine I wanna #%@ all the time, it's the way it's meant to be, me for you, you for me, I put up for you, you put out for me, just to see you happy, and so you know, I won't abandon you, like the father you never had, you won't let me in though, I embody a compromise, you can't let go of
Deep, deep breaths I won't let you rest, this could be dangerous but I guess, it's high risk, high return, otherwise why won't anyone make a big stand, I guess all the polls say, people won't change, we're set in our ways, and a big shift will come, or just gradual over time or nothing will happen at all and we'll be just fine, and I'll cry, we'll be fine...
