Baby

The melody came from my discovery that I could randomly drop blocks onto the grid in a music app, quantize it and tweak it a bit, and it wouldn’t sound half bad. Featuring disposable drums at the mercy of a three-button mouse.

One of my better attempts at four-tracking with an acoustic guitar and a simple song idea. Intended to overdub a horn section in the middle there, but much like with The Who singing “cello” on A Quick One, I just never got around to it.

Apparently I was really into this chord progression.

An attempt at writing a love letter to a girl I’d just started dating.

Sheer jest. I think August and I were up late, just playing song ideas. You can hear him singing a little backup in there.

You remember the first time you figured out how to flip the tape over and make music play backwards? Well, I do. It was when I made this song.
