His Very Words by Observatory published on 2021-10-09T22:02:14Z Out of a somewhat sorry sounding musical milieu of half-started, half-baked and half-abandoned ingredients, this strange composition that you hear before you now, slowly yet determinedly, began to emerge and assume a structural form where, for a seemingly endless period during the early part of the production process, no such spark had seemed possible. The notion of adopting a considerably accelerated tempo for this number had not been my intention from the outset - originally, this piece was expected to jog along at a steady 102 bpm - but then, out of nowhere, the idea of doubling the pace shuffled forward and suggested itself with a slightly self-conscious and apologetic shrug. After playing around with it for some time, I soon discovered that this had the potential to lock the entire, previous hotch-potch of uninspired themes into a much more cohesive musical whole, so I stuck with it and hey presto: the aforementioned structural form solidified. So, there you have it, wonderful people: "His Very Words" was prepared, sliced, diced, boiled, cooked and baked during the late summer/early autumn of 2021, entirely in Ableton Live 11 and is served up here for your delectation and listening pleasure on this day, the 13th October 2021. For this release, I'm delighted to welcome back on artwork duties the irrepressible collage exponent, Harl Vind. His incredible visual is entitled, "So Now I've Got No Mouth But I'm Still Screaming". I'm sure you'll concur that it's a fitting match for the music.

I LOVE the story behind it... I can relate wholeheartedly to the toil and experimentation. Sometimes this hobby of ours feels like rousing a Frankensteins monster... 2021-10-21T18:49:29Z Comment by SimPLE Marc Very good drum and bass !!! 2021-10-20T23:43:24Z Comment by E.B. nice turn around 2021-10-17T23:13:09Z Comment by Belial Pelegrim Massive track, brother! 2021-10-17T22:36:03Z Comment by Chris Beet love this! the strings are so haunting but I especially love the spoken word elements. It has that unnerving feel that, as a child, you would hear on 'programmes for schools and colleges' in the 1970s. 2021-10-17T20:16:49Z Comment by muterial hear hear! 2021-10-17T20:04:05Z
