Dream Music

This music was at the tail end of an epic dream that involved juicing delicious fruit of every color-flavor (imagine being able to juice colors, then squeezing the essence out of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple), and then drinking the juice with Prince, vaulting over incredibly high fences and landing in awonderfully warm swimming pool full of ball-pit balls, and then finally getting chased by the police trying to make someone turn off the radio playing this music.

I tried to re-create it as best as possible

and that's only part of the dream.

Strobe Drumming

Tim Rades and I found out you can teach someone really complicated drum patterns by visually downsampling the movements, under a strobe light.
Tim and I played drums under strobe, and I recorded & took photos.

Tim Anderson's Military Cadences

The cadences sung by the US Marine Corps have never been sung so melodically:
My Girl's In An Iron Lung
Then, remixed like there's no drum machine in the house

Roundabout

Amelia Arbisser, Jordan Bunker and I get struck by the coincidence of the melodies of "Baa Baa, Black Sheep", the "ABC Song", and "Twinkle Twinkle, Little Star".

This, after discovering that Twinkle Twinkle Little Star actually has five (5!!!) verses.
Also, Amelia sang "Baa Baa Black Sheep" with lyrics I'd never heard before.

Just for fun, we made a whole bunch of recordings. Here are the results!

Mixed and, as a round. (created digitally!!)

We were pretty giddy at the time. This may only be funny if you were there,
but highlights the difficulty of getting three untrained singers to sing together, even if the songs are simple.

Here's our laughtrack/blooper reel mashup.
