Format Sea - Part Two
Based on the age-old concept that a person is born anew every seven years. It's technically meant in terms of physiology - you develop all new bones/muscle/fat in a seven year period. I kind of add a spiritual/alien abduction…
An electronic track from the Dead In The Water sessions. I thought the Last FM version was missing something, so I went in to fine-tune it.
This is the end-result of that fine-tuning.
The track deals with how there are usually no easy outs…

Cool Indeed! the vocals have a clarity that is true to the original idea and I love the tangential approach. Great stuff. Listened three times and still grinning!
"In a reformatted world with deleted people, there are still enough dead links that some individuals might indirectly be aware of the existence of those deleted. To everybody else, they'd seem either spiritual and/or mentally imbalanced…
with the manipulated concertina/accordion and the harpsichord and synths, i was going to try and describe this, but i think you say it best in the about section.
Even the cosmos needs system maintenance. When its IT department decides to delete something, sometimes that something doesn't want to go without a fight. Even computer viruses will do what they can to avoid the reaping hand of a virus checker…
Oh crap - somebody broke the multiverse. I should have known those #?%! black holes were a serious security flaw.
We were really meaning to fix that, but never got around to it. (It would have cut into our golf time.)
One part Guy Richie, one part Cirque du Soleil, the rest a trip down a gypsy campsite.
Played by me almost all acoustically (the only MIDI track was the bass) on my banjo, detuned guitar, recorder, and violin, along with various percussion items.
This album is pretty good - lyrically, it's top-notch. The mix may need a little-tweaking, particularly the vocals -- they may need to drawn out a bit more.
This song has hints of Prince in the intro but then quickly moves into a funky, dynamic groove with changes, breaks, fills, set ups and riffs that make it hard to sit still and listen. Positive lyrics enhance the experience.

This is an electro-acoustic piece realized at Eric Siegel Productions ("where everything is a big production"). The electronics were composed, realized, and recorded by Eric Siegel, and the musicians playing are Dave Douglas on Trumpet, Gerry…
Very solid 24 hour challenge album..
There's some serious genre-channel surfing going on here, but you can still sit and listen to it seamlessly from beginning to end.
This is very moshable. =)
Okay, all kidding aside - I like how it develops around the fifty second mark, as the instrumentation kicks in. The vocals could probably stand to be dialed down a little bit in the mix. They're a little piercing in places. (The higher frequency ranges are kind of like hot pepper - a little goes a long way.)
While I think the mastering needs some reworking, I hear a ton of potential here.
You wouldn't happen to have the separated tracks for this song, per chance? It's the sort of thing I'd love to tinker with. (I couldn't guarantee it would still sound like a rock track when I was finished, though.)
After much deliberation with the voices in my head, I've decided that I like this stuff.
The genre-splicing going on here creates some interesting results.
I'm still trying to decide whether I like it or not, but it definitely gets your attention.
It sounds like as if Bob Marley were to collaborate with the Future Sounds Of London on the soundtrack for a sci-fi/horror movie..
This sounds like a Nintendo console trying really hard to console somebody who had a bad day.
I like it - it's very relaxing, but with a lo-fi sort of twist.
Written, recorded, and mixed in 24 hours. August 01-02, 2009, from 6am to 6am.
Instrumentation: Two acoustic guitars, electric guitar (picked and bowed), fretless bass, about 7 different flutes, two tabla drums, rattles, tambourine, didgeridoo…
I wrote Dancing Vampires while reading the book "The Historian", which is a story of a man and his accomplices’ quest to find Dracula in present day Europe. I love history and all of its grit. This song speaks of primal human instincts. We are…
This is interesting -- I'm hearing a mixture of influences here. A little Blue Oyster Cult mixed with some alternative rock from the 90s.
Vocals sound somewhere between Lenny Kravitz and the singer from Monster Magnet.

Wow mate I listened to your whole 24 hr album, what a trip some cool sounds happening in here. Great job well done.
Give me a second. I just gotta catch my breath here.
Ooh 1.42 of great stuff! Would love to hear more!
Hahaha! I love it when I'm taken to experiences/events without warning! Thank you! (I can't believe I nearly missed your project!)
yes, the flood! Really enjoying your 24h! Congrats!
love that synth sound
Nice. Mix seems fine here. I cranked it up so the neighbors could hear. : ) They all think I'm weird so this really helped.
Great sounds! I like it!!
Hee hee! like it :)
Wonderful...so many flavours here, but I have to say that ethereal, forboding intro is just awesome!
Wow this is great nice job well done
Awesome how it kicks in around 2:20; great buildup.
oh yeah, this certainly moves! Nice epic piece. I'm all about the alien abduction vibe!
What sister savage said! Awesome mix in cans and I think the levels are just fine
Awesome with headphones! Love the folky vocal around 1 min 55!
Cool Indeed! the vocals have a clarity that is true to the original idea and I love the tangential approach. Great stuff. Listened three times and still grinning!
Oh very cool intro! Great re-imagining of a Gumbo classic!

i'm supposed to go practice guitar, but i can't stop listening to this album. it's captivating.
i love that patch you're using, it's sublime, you know, the gurgly one.

There's something oddly meditative about this.

Heck yeah! I like uplifting songs like this. (maniacal laugh)
This is really catchy - I like the subtle use of vocoding you throw in there..
Okay - this is catchy. I love it when voices unexpectedly suckerpunch you from either the left or right channel.
I like the enigmatic melodies you're using here.
This mini-album is nice - it's the sort of thing I would listen to while drifting off to sleep.
This soundscape feels like it's drilling its way into your head. The left-right separations do weird things to the brain.
I like how this one starts off sort of unstructured, and then gradually builds from there. It has kind of a New Age-Chinese/Jazz hybrid vibe to it.

Very calming, but also unsettling at the same time. It has a very sad vibe to it.

Interesting - it sounds like a lounge jazz band of the damned. Really creepy atmosphere to it..

Damn. You guys keep raising the bar for these 24 hour challenges. =)

This reminds me of The Gathering at their most mellow, albeit a little more electronicky.
