Track List & Notes for Marsh Arms (an attempt at making 24 songs in 24 hours) :
Go easy on these. They're...sloppy. I made one every hour starting at 4:30 AM. I burned out by 6 PM. Oops!
- Wolf Marsh (2.4 MB)
My 4:30 AM wake-up song. Like a gentle alarm clock. At 4:30 AM this seemed like the best song ever.
- Bear Marsh (3.6 MB)
Your friend the spirit-bear has to leave you and go back to the spirit-world. Say goodbye as he sinks under the water and disappears!
- Horse Marsh (2 MB)
Good old MicroKorg and delay pedal!
- Goose Marsh (2.8 MB)
The geese have a long way to go on their migration-journey. Days and days of flying for hours. But they can make the best of it by singing this song as they fly!
- Deer Marsh (2 MB)
Ah Korg, what would I do without you? And this time I experimented with chords (gasp).
- Mouse Marsh (2.8 MB)
More aptly titled "Spider Marsh." I guess it's a song about a messed up relationship. It's like I'm a codependent spider-woman and I'm trapping my prey, who I want to love me, but I'm keeping him captive.
- Night Arms (3.2 MB)
Just...made for atmosphere. Improvised and doubletracked.
- Fire Arms (2.5 MB)
It's about a crazy ceremony held before a bunch of people go burn down a neighboring village. I was starting to get totally burned out...this marked the eighth hour of the project and I was getting into a phase of "why should I bother with this crazy project?" So I just wrote words really fast and made this up as I went along.
- Rock Arms (1.4 MB)
I was totally burned out here. Vocoder is often a cop-out for me.
- Wind Arms (2.7 MB)
This could've been more interesting. But I felt pretty awful by this point. Also, I just reused the drums from "Brighter Places."
- Water Arms (1.7 MB)
Again...this could've been okay. But I just didn't want to invest the time in it. Maybe I'll redo it.
- Wood Arms (3 MB)
I thought, "try to make a more manly song for a change." Hmm... Not so great. So I decided to call it quits.
