More from ChrisGoodwin
2008. Off the album Summer, the rest of which can be heard online here (tracks along the right).
An original song, featuring my vocals, various guitar work and programming.
Also, the early percussion is me tapping away on a pot (re: Sifl & Olly).
It falls into a droning sequence at the end; I tend to produce wallpaper
music for making art or for while out on my bike - doing something other
than active listening.
Lyrics:
After all, it's all you get
After all, it's all you get
Call your mother
She's worried about you
And she'll listen when you lie
(She loves you more than that)
After all, it's all you get
After all, it's all you get
Call your old friend
He's so lost without you
He knows what makes you cry
(And he's okay with that)
Call your lover
Whoever she's with right now
And she knows how hard you try
(But she needs more than that)
After all, it's all you get
After all, it's all you get

dude i don't even know, just this thing i picked up from radio shack years ago. i'm not even sure where it is. not the cheapest microphone i could get, but nothing more than $20 because that's kind of my limit on stuff like this.
i put a sock over it :) and did some clean-up with CoolEdit2000 (audio processing software).

I wasn't trying to be insulting either, just like you. Pointing out that being black hardly
means a narrow range of vocalizing (as you seemed to suggest) isn't being defensive
or insulted. I used your own wording as well. I tend to treat people the way they treat
me; if you feel free dish it but not take it without "hey come on" justifications, then I
dunno what that means about what you said to begin with nor how you think I'm
supposed to react.
You feel free to make a claim from your point of view about what you think black folks
sound like - and it has nothing to do with my personal experience being black, and so
I point out that perhaps you need to meet more black people because your presumptions
are perhaps little narrow. What am I supposed to say? I don't share your surprise at my
voice; it's my voice, it's normal to me and I'm black *shrug* Pointing this out isn't
argumentative, just like you pointing out your initial opinion isn't either, right? Am I supposed
to just accept your point of view because you have it - and let you define some aspect of
my existence as abnormal because you say so?
Just because you say "You don't fit my view of A" and I very simply suggest that's because A
is more complicated than your view, doesn't mean I'm responding to what I think is aggression,
just ignorance. When I respond that way, just as simply as you initially stated to me, why do you
take as aggression that needs to be defused with "LAWL" and "hey come on", etc.? If what I wrote
seemed challenging to you, what does that mean about what you wrote to me? And if I'm supposed
to take it without seeing conflict, why don't do the same?

Well, now, that is interesting. I've never even considered combining a soft singing voice with reverb (or whatever distortion is going on there, again, the soft voice makes it kinda cryptic to me). I'm still unsure whether I like it or not, but that's pretty damned stimulating.
