The mix continues

The song I have been recording is working out well. It began with edits of tones on audacity. Sawtooth tones were cut into pieces, pitch edited and arranged in a random order. Delighted with the original arrangement, the process of getting a good drum beat began.

I took a beat that sounded excellent on its own, but awful in the song. Editing bits of the beat and cutting it up like the tones created a disjointed beat the, over 4 different layers of beats, creates a really awkward but interesting sound.

Further tones were added over the cut up pitch altered notes that make the original underlying tune. The new tones add an even further to the already complicated sound.

This song is starting to become one of my best In Cloud Cuckooland songs.

In the mix

I currently have numerous songs lying around on my computer. A little here, and a little bit there. At the moment, they don't really make much sense. All beats and blips. Stammering and stops.

In 2007 I went through the whole 'I love my acoustic guitar' phase, which was nice. 2008 saw me use dance with rock surrounded by a dirty night theme. 2009-2010 has seen a long period of what I regard as heavy, industrial dance coupled with chilling psychotic dream-state subject matter. It continues and continues.

Recently I started mixing a song with beeps and noise, and sample beats and it is turning out to be quite a good tune. It is oddly timed, missing beats, with an jumpy awkwardness. It is layered and takes the song time to begin. I think however, it may be one of the best tunes I have written in a while. I will put it on www.myspace.com/wullaewright when I have complete it. I think it will fit nicely into the odd arrangement of uncomfortable songs I already have for 'In Cloud Cuckooland'.
