❄ 004: staff paper: handwritten text

[pitch_slap]

I apologize for my absence as of late. Between classes, physical training, and skipping underground adventures in favor of an older hobby of mine I've been a little busy.

However, I've been considering testing some of my new songs on the network, when I get rough versions of them ready. A captive audience, so to speak. I will, of course, refrain from autoplay. This isn't 1997 Geocities, after all.

Fair warning, I suppose.

When you have a chance, we should talk about the different memories we all have. They seem somewhat connected, and it would be good to... get everything out on the table, so to speak, see if we can piece anything together?

You write songs? [SO VERY IMPRESSED.]

[text; handwritten]

[pitch_slap]

I try, anyway.

[That's a lie she has like one album that went gold and a couple that got some pretty decent radio ply but hey ~modesty~]

[darkhourdear]

That's really cool!! What type of songs?

[text; handwritten]

[pitch_slap]

All sorts, really.

[text; handwritten]

[darkhourdear]

Wow. Are you like a rock star?

[hollowleg]

That's probably a good idea. Maybe we could figure out something a little more concrete.

Oh, did you still need to sample me laughing?

[pitch_slap]

Pooling our resources and all that.

If you wouldn't mind. I don't know if it'll end up on the final mix but it def seems that's the direction this album will be heading.

Definitely. I'd love to put a few more pieces together. Oh. Don't let me forget to tell you about the monsters I saw in a pulse. But I want to wait and tell you and Mamoru at the same time.

No problem. Just set me up with some cat videos in the recording studio and you'll have as much creepy laughing as you could possibly want. [he isn't fond of his laugh, but he gets to be in MUSIC! How cool is that?]

[pitch_slap]

Monsters? What sort of

Probably easiest just to tell.

Cat videos and a mic, got it. Easiest special effect ever. ^_^

private;

[hollowleg]

I'll tell you both at once!

Right? Hehehe. I'm so easy. I'm just really psyched about being in music, not gonna lie... how cool is that?

More songs? I think I'm jealous.

voice {iphone}

[pitch_slap]

Mm, well, if nothing else, this whole misadventure has lead to some interesting lyrics.

voice {iphone}

[ursoreckless]

I bet it has... I recorded my first pulse. It's quite a song though I wish I could find the right voice for the second person.

voice {iphone}

[pitch_slap]

What sort of voice are you looking for?

voice {iphone}

[ursoreckless]

The guy that taught me the song matches me in my natural range though he has a smoother quality and less vibrato.

[he just sort of laughs and adds in] Funny, I don't know his name, don't know what he looks like, but I know his voice. Fuck these memories.

voice {iphone}

[pitch_slap]

Memory is a funny thing. Whatever we remember strongest. For some people, scent, for others, like us, the sound of a voice...

voice {iphone}

[ursoreckless]

Yeah... Voice is more important. People are people but I can just hear him talking or singing, sometimes laughing...

voice {iphone}

[pitch_slap]

I would say that I'd keep an ear out, but I'm sure the best person to find him is you. I wouldn't get anywhere near.

voice {iphone}

[ursoreckless]

Mebbe. I don't know if he would even be in this country, or even be born yet.
