about

grief track

the phone i had the lyrics on broke

recorded by mic'ing my cheap Casio keyboard and recording 12 tracks of different instrument settings, as plain as possible, with the hope of making it sound like an orchestra warming up. The only dynamic tool was the volume slider on the keyboard. In each track I played 1 note in varying octaves and rhythms for 40 measures, then switched to another note for 40 measures, and then again once more, before stopping abruptly, as though a knife has chopped off the rest.
