Misplaced / misnumbereD

another stream-of-conciousness type IT soundscape-style track, for my
girlfriend because she liked 'ai9': the last one i released which was
basically aliens talking to me through a dream about numbers which i
then wrote down and made a track about.
this track i suppose is the sequel to 'ai9', like 'ai9' was where the
extra-terrestrial aliens were sending a message, now they've come back to
abduct you to perform experiments, to check that their little project has
gone according to plan.
they've possibly got the wrong person but they're not sure as you've been
misnumbered among their test subjects. anyhow, they've gone ahead with
their procedures and you're not doing well to say the least in coping with
their time-bending and machinery that's surrounding you. the only thing
you can manage is 'there''s something strange' but every time you say it
using what you believe is normal speech, time has you know it has been
stretched or compressed so your voice sounds very abnormal.
there are motors constantly going in the background and you can notice
different speeds of different motors as they move you about from room to
room or area to area.
finally they finish up with their experiments after what seems like an
eternity of something close to hell, or maybe worse, because you don't
understand any of this, as there seems to be nothing at all familiar about
anything to do with this situation. at least hell has fire and brimstone
and heavy metal or something like that :). they prepare to transport you
back to earth, when all of a sudden they beam you out with a clap, and
upon arriving back on the earth's crusty crust, you can't remember
anything but you swear something happened.. or did it?..
to get full effect, crank the bass by about +2dB at around 62Hz and the
treble by about +3dB at 8 to 10kHz, played through impulse tracker with a
gravis ultrasound max.

Warped IV is still plodding along, slowly but surely. I've done some
recording of acoustic guitar tracks in Brainstorm Studios, and doing
rehearsals with Stef and Bendoverandphilmccracken for drum tracks on tunes
by the names of Electricity, A bin of teens, Buy it With Bananachips, and
Carrier Detector. There are also a few other tunes we may decide to work
on as time comes but these four are the main ones that will have organic
drum tracks. I'm pretty sure all will be album tracks, but you never know,
some could be b-sides, or separate singles or even left out altogether,
depending on how well the album gels as a whole with or without these
tracks. Overall, it's not quite as chippy as Emotions Gemini, but probably
as diverse in moods and styles.
Fission's Opus has recently recruited a new drummer, James, and he smashes
his buckets and metal discs quite well. We're rehearsing twice a week for
the first time ever in the history of our merry little trio and things are
looking up with already two gigs lined up in a few month's time. We've
also got a few new songs being worked on, and unfortunately we won't be
releasing anything much anytime soon, which is alright tho i spose. A
picture disc 7" is still on the cards.. maybe.
Scotch Tarts have been busking up Bondi Junction a fair bit regularly,
about 3 times a week, and we've been doing really rather well monetarily
out of it.. just gotta lay off the beer & save it ;). Sarah's going on
tour in mid-May and then most likely going home to Scotland after that so
i gotta pull my finger out and score some violin charts and get her into
the studio before she leaves.. two months might sound like a long time but
it goes quicker than you think.
Anyhow, have a Winfield.. umm.. no :P..
