Quick. Write down the first emotion that comes to mind. Right now.
Write down the name of the first color you think of.
Write down a description of what you can smell right now.
Pick up your most immediate musical instrument. Hit record. Play music for 30-60 seconds while thinking about the things you just wrote.
Stop recording. Save your wav file. Put it up on Google Drive. Send me, @jasonw22, a private message with a link to your track. Do this by June 21. Do it more than once if you want to. Ask your friends to do it. Make your enemies do it.
Omigosh. Twenty-four days went by before I even saw this. Microcosm of my life right now. Thank you @jasonw22 and @jlmitch5 for conceiving and managing this! I will attempt to assemble a few minutes to do this this weekend.
are you able to expand on this part? will you be remixing/ overlaying / collaging it all into some bigger thing or presenting it as a compilation of lots of short different tracks left intact?
I, of course, have no problem with either but I would like a few more hints in the direction it might go.
and thanks for organising another thing in this series Jason.
Mine came out of messing around jamming to this generative synth thing I had built up in ableton, which I recorded and then popped together really quick to try to make a 1-minute krautrock build. I kind of hate it lol, but also the exercise of releasing something (even something I don’t love) was nice–I’ve got into a bit of an obsessive loop with the tracks under this new golden chorale name, and so it was cool to take the leap and release the “first” track of it.
