Greets to Polygon Ring and Scallis
In the magical land called "Ark Ferio" four musicians gathered
and decided to record a short song. All of them were completely
or at least partially retarded. The night before, one of the
guys bumped into the analogue synth and knocked it against the
ground, then tripped and fell on it. The synth started to
sound funny after that. The drummer was being irritated by a
fly and was trying to smash it with his sticks. He was randomly
hitting the drums and the hats. The bass player was drunk and
did not listen to what he was playing. He was trying to screw
everybody up and he started playing the bass line from an old
country song because he knew the other guys hated country. And
finally, nobody was really trying to record the track until the
fly landed on the forehead of the guy playing the synth. The
drummer smashed it with his stick and that rendered the other
guy unconscious and he fell on the DAT recorder, pushing the
record button. Fortunately, he got up in time for his part
but was angry and dazed for the rest of the night. The guy on
the keyboard recorded his nephew's voice and was trying to
make it sound scary. He did not know (and in fact nobody knew
at all) about the recording but he evetually got bored and
switched to strings. At one point nobody knew what was going on
because the drummer forgot his beat and started playing
something else. By that time the bass player was half-sober and
was getting nervous because he wanted to go to the bathroom.
The guy with the synth realized that his synth was sounding
funny and did not dare play for a while but then he decided to
piss the other guys off and played a tune he had heard
somewhere in the country because he knew that all the other
guys hated country. So the guys played and played and played
but at some point the DAT tape was finished. The guys were of
course so retarted that they did not notice that fact and
continued playing for another hour or so until the drummer
passed out. Unfortunately, their jam was lost forever. Or maybe
someone else had managed to record it? We'll see...
