Twitchin' Fractal

Back in October (the 10/10/10, to be specific), I released a new e-album which can be downloaded in Bandcamp. Twitchin' Fractal is my, uh, probably 5th CD (oh my, yes 5!) and compared to the stuff one can find on my Reverbnation, it's a lot more complex, it has lyrics (sometimes), and yay, its production is the best I've done so far. Here I leave you with just some curious things, I took snapshots of some songs as I worked on them in FL Studio, lost all of 'em except for the one below. Yes, I use FL Studio, and contrary to popular opinion, it doesn't really matter what DAW you use, as long as you know how to use it.





You can tell I went nuts with automation and stuff, and let me tell ya, that filtery-ish intro uses no less than 7 different sound-mangling plugins to get that strange slurpy filtery distortion, working on some already glitched-out vocals that reappear in the middle of the song accompanied by a guitar solo, and at the end. The vocals are from an old Mamie Smith song from the 20s (in the public domain now), which were a last-minute inclusion into the track, and to be honest, the track would have been boring without them.

So, there's plenty more strange interesting music from where that came from! Check it out, bubba!
