Description An extension of this experiment

http://www.macjams.com/song/42077

kind of came out of nowhere tonight.
Lyrics waiting waiting waiting f0r this land to shift i'm sick of this g30graphy this used and ravaged place

i can hear them h3ar them hear them calling me the killers of pain c0mfort they make everything okay

1 am just a figment of imaginat10n I am an ab0mination you should not see m3

1 have spent my days translating words and gestures under pre55ure to give exactly what y0u need

i have met my match with this I can_n0t under/stand this list of numbers within numbers easily

but I must figure out this m a t h before my masters all come back and see that I have failed them miserably

thanks len. this was fun. i think I have a few more of these in me. gotta find out what happens to that poor translator!

LunaTrick said 259 days ago
Like it!
Interesting intro - but I like the vocals a lot - sort of NIN meets Spaceman 3 - or something like that. I'm looking forward to hearing more of your stuff!

rsorensen said 259 days ago
NIN
I'm a fan of both. Thanks for checking this out. Hope you find others you like.

Lennon714 said 259 days ago
Fitter, Happier, More productive
Reminds me of that, but this is just as cool. That's saying something. For obvious reasons, but for reasons on it's on. I love how it develops in to its own song. Good job!

rsorensen said 259 days ago
OK Computer
thanks, eric. definitely has a 'fitter,happier' influence. i tried to change up the voice a little with a female version but it just didn't sound good. anyway really glad you enjoyed it. looking forward to another one of yours (hint hint)

egobandit said 259 days ago
subtle
But a strong moving movement of notes above a constant beat. Great arrangement I love the computer talk sounds like Steven Hawkins on acid Ok computer comes to mind. The arrangement of the guitar on this is the best part of the song to me, Just because I love the simplicity of it Enjoyed this alot thanks !!!!

rsorensen said 259 days ago
guitar
thanks bandit. I had planned a more complex guitar part but this is what came out and stuck. working on part 3 now...

Vic Holman said 259 days ago
ok computer-head
I think Egobandit took the words out of my mouth. Not only a cool tune but headphone heaven. Digging all the effecting and the feedback in the background. is that headphone & mike feedback or guitar and amp feedbacK?

rsorensen said 259 days ago
mic
thanks vic. headphone heaven - I like that! that's mic feedback pitched way down with tons of reverb. thanks for listening. more on the way!

thanks for dropping by henke

michael2 said 258 days ago
dude
this is great. that piano sound is killing me. i wasn't expecting the song to start up, thought i was in for a psych tone scape. i'm just catching up on music right now, so sorry that i was late on this. really nice, glad i got to finally hear it.

rsorensen said 258 days ago
me either
thanks michael. I didnt know it was going to turn into a song either. now I'm working on part 3 haha. thanks for checking it out.

Jam_Chowder said 258 days ago
Hey...
the guitar and piano work is great, i really love the lyrics too. This is definitely the first of it's kind, you're great musician.

rsorensen said 256 days ago
piano
thanks a lot. i'm pretty happy with the piano sound I can get out of my keystudio. glad you think it worked well with the guitar.

blackbox said 257 days ago
I really
enjoyed this, nice use of effects & smooth overall aesthetic. You have a sexy voice!

(Reminds me of NIN a bit too btw but not overly)

rsorensen said 256 days ago
:)
hey thanks for checking out my stuff and commenting. glad you enjoyed this

Nick_Flash said 257 days ago
very cool
this is some wild stuff. I really dig the electronic beat behind this. Very industrial.
Its cool to hear the different music styles you've been hitting recently.
Peace,
nick

rsorensen said 256 days ago
different styles
thanks nick. yeah most of the time I don't really have an idea what style of music's going to come out when I start a new project. this just kinda came outta nowhere.

3-2-1- Ready for takeoff ....
.. see I asked earlier which tune was gonna blast its way onto this one .. and voila .. here it is .... I DO like the FX you choose on all your vox .... they always fit so well to the tune ....

rsorensen said 256 days ago
alannah
thanks glad you liked it. the next part ends with a huge wall of fuzz and feedback. it's grand!

gail60 said 256 days ago
cool
Very creative. You have lots of talent and imagination. Very interesting song. I absolutely love your voice and that is certainly not a figment of my imagination :) However, I kept having the urge to yell BINGO! Just kidding...Seriously, Great job! Loved it.

Heightened said 254 days ago
U-la-la!
More please!

Epileptic Gibbon said 158 days ago
Glad I listened
Great track and I very much enjoyed this. A combination of Radiohead and NIN perhaps but put together so well that it's better than the sum of its influences. Can I play this track on my podcast show at some point?
