This is a combination of two separate recordings I did that happened to be in the same key. The first part is about 30-seconds long, and consists of me dubbing over myself thrice on clarinet, which makes for some very cool patterns and harmonies. The second part (you’ll hear the transition) sounds about the same at first, but with 2 clarinets and an alto flute, and then I started improvizing lyrics to sing over it. “I see you but you don’t see me, not today, not tomorrow, prob’ly never. But still I think what are you thinking? What are you thinking?” is about how it goes. Like I said, that came from nowhere, so don’t expect it to be very well thought-out. Also I’ve never really recorded my voice before, so I tried all sorts of weird stuff and this was the best one.
This recording was sort of a proof-of-concept for me, just to prove to myself that I could do a complete recording by myself with lyrics if I really wanted to. And it was winter break and I was bored sitting around the house doing nothing, so what the heck.
