Sean Redmond - Traffic

I took Marc's instructions for [disquiet0540] the other way around to explore a different avenue possible with this combination of numbers: Instead of 5/4, I went for a 4/5 feel (so based on five quintuplets rather than four sixteenth notes to the beat. Or you could look at it as a VERY fast 5/4).

This was inspired by Miles Okazaki's excellent book "Fundamentals of Guitar". The chapter about rhythm explores these and far more complex polypulses: https://www.milesokazaki.com/fundamentals-of-guitar
Also, I tried for something along the lines of Strobes from London: https://strobesband.bandcamp.com

So I ended up with a rather unsteady-feeling groove and the tricky task of playing a couple of guitar breaks in quintuplets.
But I spent far more time on the beat, obviously, which was too much fun.

See what you think! Thanks for listening.

Lovely prompt this one, thanks Marc @disquiet! This is my response for disquiet0619.

I went for a bit of a beat workout, selecting sounds and building up an odd time groove on the Machinedrum, before further tweaking in the DAW ensued, pushing things around, adding chords and bass tracks and whatnot, until this speedy odd time tune felt like it built up nicely, had a good flow and was going somewhere. Heaps of fun!!

Enjoy!

08. FESCENNINE DYSTOPIA

Ever made a world in your head that's so pristinely beautiful that, when you feel down, even closing your eyes and imagining it makes you feel happy? But there's a polar opposite of everything. A place so disgusting that not even words can describe...
Maybe it's far easier to imagine it then a utopian world.
Maybe we're already living in that world.
Paranioa. Paranioa.
Thinking only makes it worse.
Thinking rationaly makes it even worse.
Dude what the hell are you rambling about again?
Oh you made a new song...
You should seek help. schizo retard

Seventy Four Crumbs

Interpret: Cora
Music and Lyrics: Cora
Mix: Jacob Weinreich

LYRICS:

Intro:
What if I change? What if I change?

Verse 1:
What frightens me so 'bout an opinion?
Am I scared you'll twist my words 'til I don't recognise them?
Or is it my own mind, trying to find certainty in the ambiguous?
What if I let go of control, will it control me?

Chorus 1:
What if I'm wrong, what if I'm naive? What if I fail to see?
What if I'm right, what if I let go of what I thought to know?
What if I lead, what if I follow? What if I trust what I don't know?
What if I hold onto tomorrow, but I loose track of what is now?

Verse 2:
How simple it is to sway someone's belief.
Or is it, in fact, the hardest thing to achieve?
What if I let down my guard, will it change the way you see me?
What if I grip to control, will it control me?

Pre-Chorus:
What if I change? What if I change?

Chorus 2:
What if I'm wrong, what if I'm naive? What if I let go of what I believe?
What if I lead, what if I follow? What if I trust what I don't know?

Bridge:
What if I change? What if I loose my way?
What if I change my mind, what would I find?

Outro:
What if I change? What if I change? What if I change?

William is an eclectic, eccentric, and electronic musician from the NW Indiana/ Chicago-land area. William draws influence from a variety sources that include Downtempo, IDM, Ambient, Dream Pop, Lo-Fi, Trip Hop, Soundtrack, New Age, Video Games, Electronic Rock, Art Rock and Progressive Rock.

William came up from working class roots and still exists there, and yet, William’s music both transcends and embraces this history for better or worse. 

At times like an aging philosopher, at other’s belligerent and dumb. Either way, one thing William is not… is boring.

- Thanks for visiting my Soundcloud page. If you're here, it's probably because you're either a true fan, or lost. Either way, my Soundcloud page is a great way to hear what I am working on MONTHS in advance of when it may be released on other platforms. In fact, there's stuff here that isn't anywhere else as they just didn't fit the vision of my current releases. 
So.... if you hear a track and it isn't on one the pinned albums, e.p.'s, or singles, chances are it's still being worked on and/or being considered for future release. Feel free to leave a comment of praise or constructive criticism. You may get to play a small part in the creative vision of my future releases. :-)

Abstract sample sculptures, minimal/maximal, weird beats, broken ambient.
