Bow Before The Hand

April 16th, 2005

[6:45] <dsandler> Surely someone with a higher degree in mixology can do better, but I was amazed at how readily The Hand That Feeds matches Head Like A Hole.  They’re even in compatible keys.

[6:46] <dsandler> GarageBand doesn’t give me the stretching tools I need to really get the job done, and also, I suck anyway.  But I was able to keep the synch up for about 50 seconds, which is enough for a poetic point-counterpoint: http://dsandler.org/outgoing/thtf-hlah-clip.mp3

[6:46] <dsandler> (The nice thing about “industrial”: it doesn’t matter that I don’t have a vocals-only track for HLAH.  The conflicting lead guitars just add to the noise.  More noise: good!)

[6:48] <dsandler> [you can hear that HLAH loses about 1/32 every 8 or 10 bars, and then I double a 32nd in the middle to catch it back up, which puts it about 1/64 ahead, and then it drags until the end … sounds kind of drunk. :( ]
