Podcast: Play in new window
One of the nice things about coming out to see Charlotte is that she has a load of old music2work2 that I haven’t listened to for ages; tracks that were being developed that never got finished, me experimenting with different voices etc, etc.
I had reminded myself this evening that I wanted to record the noise of the cicadas from the back porch – they are so loud and such a part of the environment that I reckoned they would work nicely as an additional voice in a music2work2 piece.
So – I fired up Audioboo to record the cicadas and just as I started to record – the Dorothy theme came on the stereo – it is a theme I wrote for Wendi’s grandmother who passed away a few years back; it has parts for piano, strings, bass and guitar – and while the execution isn’t great – I love the idea.
So – I ended up recording the track and book-ending it with cicadas…
Think I’ll be re-visiting this one when I get back to LA
