about

Y'know, I'm starting to get the distinct impression that even-numbered days are cursed, because once again, I really struggled to come up with something today. Words can't begin to describe how frustrating- hell, how outright disheartening- it is to be sat in front of your software at 4pm on the day you're supposed to be posting, and you've got absolutely nothing to show for it.

On the flipside, I seem to have a knack for eventually managing to get an idea out my thinkpan in the end, and so far I haven't run late in my time zone, so hey, silver lining.

Similarly to the Twisted Kerchiefs piece, the rough idea for this track came relatively early on into the project; I've just struggled to make it into anything more concrete. Although, to be fair, up until today the idea only extended as far as "an MCF song with chopped up drums like they're being played on a sampler like". The idea evolved a little bit after I pulled some inspiration from something actually Xmas Season related by way of a change- namely, a little Noodle joint me and my family stopped at for lunch during our annual Christmas Shopping day. Something about the ambiance of the place brought to mind a (mostly) chilled out choppy cut like this. The vaguely industrial sounding percussion I wound up using (ganked from "Burning Combat" from Gungage) weren't part of the initial plan, but I think they work with the feeling I was going for well and they sound fantastic chopped up like that. The TB-303 bass wouldn't normally have been my first choice for an MCF song either, but I was salvaging elements from a (second) attempted third-MACHine song, and honestly I think it kinda works.
