I been walkin' since 3 am
From Empire to Birmingham

I know you, you're a dangerous curve
I see you, but I'm not gonna swerve
No, no, no, I know you
You're a dangerous curve

Take it slow on the road as we go

Perhaps inspired by a misremembered line of T.S. Eliot? I thought the line was, "I have measured out time in teaspoonfuls."
The proper line is "I have measured out my life in coffee spoons."
Oh well. I like my bungled line better.

I originally wanted to rap over this beat, and had the idea to improvise nonsense syllables just to figure out what the flow might be like. Ultimately I decided to keep it as it was, as it sounded like a hip hop song from another planet. Also…

The experiment here was to program a rhythm at a fairly slow tempo, then speed it up way too much.

Basically a drum-n-bass remix of my earlier song "Mike The Considerate Center For The Performing Arts".

Somewhat Residents-inspired. The rhythm is me breathing heavily and slapping my desk, run through a lot of reverb.

Originally my idea was to improvise half a conversation, then also improvise the other half as a different character - I ended up deciding just having half the conversation was funnier. Kinda unintentionally inspired by "Pollo Asado" by Ween.

For some of these tracks I was really thinking "what can I do to make this annoying to listen to?"

Man I was really into making these square-wave-sampling, dodgy bootleg 8-bit video game soundtrack pieces for a while.

I did a little "self-sampling" on this album - the cut up vocals were from my song "Nasty Asterisk". Later on I'd use the exact same backing track to cover "Baby Got Back" by Sir Mixalot, because I realized I'd inadvertently copied that bass-line.
