Thanks! Thanks for the call out! For some reason, the voice came out really loud. I recorded that using Wiretap, which may explain that but it is a free podcast you can download from iTunes. It really started out as an experiment using Meringue. I had a free early version of this that I used a while back but it stopped working when I got my Intel mac, and they recently updated it and made the GUI really cool to look at, as it has a window that visually represents how the effect is working. It's a delay that plays backwards and forwards with various filters. It always was pretty trippy sounding, now it's trippy to look at. http://www.expert-sleepers.co.uk/meringue.html Unfortunately it's not free but that's the only negative. The other thing that was inspiring me is the new Juana Molina album, and I set out to do something like that but to no surprise, I ended up with something sort of different since I have very different tools. You can get a free Juana Molina track here: http://www.juanamolina.com/tourdownload/ Check out my latest song called Weather or Not w/awigze

Very cool track Jim great idea to use Studs on this - he's a quintessential story teller. our backing is wonderful - like M2 I'd love to hear alone also. I like how the percussion sounds like big metal mixing bowls sometimes. I used to have a standing lamp with a large metal shade that made it onto a lot of 4 track recordings. Check out my latest song called Expanding Toys (Halloween Remix)

thanks! The metal bowl sounds are Tibetan Bowls samples by Sonivox. They also make a very nice Mellotron and their DVI instruments are fairly cheap. I really enjoyed this. I listened to a podcast of his interviews with people reminiscing about the Depression and it was quite intriguing sonically, and when I heard this little story, I couldn't resist sticking it in this little bit of music I'd put together.

Thanks for the tip on Sonivox. New to me - and very interesting. I gave my daughter a Tibetan singing bowl for Christmas this year. She's getting interested in meditation and sound healing. Again - really interesting piece of music. Check out my latest song called Expanding Toys (Halloween Remix)
