Drink Budweiser

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.

The idea here was to base a simple song around the effect of a handheld tape recorder being paused and un-paused repeatedly, during a recording. Most of the vocal sounds were August. It sounds strange now.

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.

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