This song started out as my attempt at an Irish folk melody. It might pass for that if played at the proper speed. But, being someone who is rarely content with creating simple folk songs, I began playing with the BPM slide in the program Acid.

Hearing my voice turn from female to male while still sounding somewhat natural was almost hypnotizing to me. Once it went from folk song to experimental mind-trip, I was inspired to create some background random noise and throw in a guitar track. The spacy blips and drone you hear in the background were created using my Emu XK-6.

I kind of like my black male singer alterego. Maybe he'll get his own album one of these days.

By the way, yes, there is a "Part 2," I swear I'm not just being pretentious. (Ok, maybe just a little.) I actually wrote the second part first, but I have a lot more work to do on it, so we're just going to have to do this George Lucas style and begin in the middle.

(Middle?? Does this mean there is a Part 3 as well? Oh, my child...there are more parts to this story than even I could possibly imagine...)
