about

More or less since this round of 12 Tracks started, I knew I wanted to do something with Twisted Kerchiefs. Specifically, something more Bebop influenced and faced paced then prior TK tracks have been. At least half the headaches I dealt with on Day 2 and Day 4 were the result of trying- and failing- to get this damn song out of my head (something which, as you can probably imagine, is fairly hard when you're going in with no pre-written melody and only a vague idea of style).

Finally, roughly half a day before posting, something finally clicked. And whooo, the sense of relief when it did, folks, I tell ya what. Shit's better then at least 5 sloppy make outs.

It blows by very quick as a track- and there's one tiny little mistake in the percussion I didn't correct in time (that I'm not going to point out, so, y'know, have fun guessing)- but overall, I am extremely proud of this one. I reckon this'll be one of the best of the year, hands down, and given I've never worked with this style of music before that's probably nothing short of a miracle. Also, not gonna lie; one of the things I'm proudest of is that intro. Ever since I heard that Speak 'n Spell vocal whilst combing through The X-Static Goldmine sample pack, I knew I needed to use it in a Twisted Kerchiefs song. And I'm still pleasantly surprised at just how well it works.
