Which came first, the egg, or the eggnog?

Similiar question would be: Which came first, me unwittingly plagiarizing myself, or me doing a conscious decicion to add elements in my music, that I’ve used before?

TAKE THAT TAKE features a little bass riff, that was shamelessly and deliberately ripped from another piece I made. All in good fun.

Also, the C-part is pretty good. It’s shame it only makes a brief appearance. Maybe…

Simple stuff today. I wanted this guy here to have:

– Steady & pretty light beat
– Orchestral instruments hovering around
– Quirky percussions
– Overall light-hearted & fun feel

And that’s what BEATRICKS is. Or I hope it is.

Although the text messages from you still keep on rollin’ every monday morning at 5.21 am, and sometimes I might even reply indignantly, I thought that a longer message would be appropriate.

So, how you doin’ in there? Loony tunes? How’s little kitty-kitty?

I’m doin’ great, because this post is a letter from the past, I’m still on vacation and life is sweet! At the time you’re reading this, on the other hand, I’m back on the arki, which is also fine.

Hey, I made something for you! Or to be Frank & Ernest, I made a tune and named it after you: FOR JOHNNY THUNDER. Hope you like it!

That’s it. I would be fun to see you eye to eye, some day. 2112? Maybe even sooner!?

“Stop playing and eat your vegetables.”

“Yes, dear.”

For years, I used to completely avoid using artificial guitars. You know, because I’ve got more guitars in my apartment than the law allows.

(That didn’t come out right)

More recently I’ve put some fake guitars on tunes like NASTYENGINETOE, where the synthesized sound is more than wanted.

Or, hang on… Oh I did make those impossible guitar parts in that tune with the horrible rhythms… And then there was the “electro stoner”-piece… And shoot, of course the two (or three) general midi rock tunes…

So I guess, I gave up on this matter years ago! Live ‘n learn!
