Weirdness for the sake of...
I feel like I go through phases of art. By art I suppose I mean my art, which is writing and music, and it goes through phases. I went through this long phase of being silly where I wrote a story based on the "Bad Dudes" nintendo game and wrote a crapload of really stupid songs (See: The Sweetness and all things related.) Now all of the sudden I just want to make weird things that aren't funny or touching or anything. Just weird. For the sake of it.
SO in the wake of Murf's visit, I have recorded a really weird country-ish thing (which I will post in a day or two) and then I took the slide guitar part from the beginning of that and stretched it, warped it, filtered it, etc, etc, and layered it forwards backwards and sideways, and I think it sounds cool. How many people are interested in purely weird abstract sound recordings? Not many I bet! Nonetheless, I'm interested, and this is my blog, so I'm posting it. Listen if this sounds like your thing. If not, I wouldn't bother.

Very cool and creepy. I thought it was more ghostly than monsterly. I like the weirdness!

Well, it's just called monster because it's a slide guitar part from a song called "monster." So, it was a pretty lame name. It was saved in my recording program as "Spookium" originally. I think that's more fitting.
that was really cool i lmy favorite part was near the end when you phased back in with the sound at the max and then it went back down. i really liked the high pitch sounds and really love the low bass parts as well. a definite four dismembered arms out of five.
First- I love all sorts of abstract sound assemblies, including this one.
Second - for some weird reason, this song reminds me very strongly of the probe at the beginning of Star Trek IV when it was looking for humpback whales.
Third- Sounds like what a dying person might hear right before he/she wets him(her)self.
