more stuff for the glubotic March addendum. The bamboo flute in this track belonged to an old Subud brother ... I don't really know how to play any wind instruments... but this flute practically plays itself.
"I am hypnotized by the TV weekdays at 5:30. They wash my mind on Eastern Standard Time. You know my mind runs on commercial puns. Oh, I can't think for myself anymore..."
Yeah, I can't help watching TV alot. Well I can, but I choose not to. This…
This whole album being a part of the RPM Challenge, it was overall fairly rushed, although this is the most noticeably incomplete song. I recorded both a vocal and drum track to go along with this song, but they both did not record for some reason…
