================================================

Candle from CA -- put out a "go for it" (lyrics), musication of it. It was a simple V, C, V short, maybe 1min or less singable chunk of lyric. One other cohort, Cody of Oklahoma had already worked his magic on it, and so it has proceeded. (No other takers to date it seems.)

So, I rearranged to the point of a rewrite but used only his words, -- hard as it was not for me to NOT make it unrecognizable to him ;) hahhh! (but, I succeeded!).

So, I work only with "real instruments" no synths, midis, etc., but this year started to inject live loops. So, Cody the Flatlander Mic's some storms he had this year and I have been getting 100 MPG on them :) and reuse one, yet again... but then mixed in, to the point he may not recognize it, but, that's okay, he won't care.

So, then, in my "original" hit, read, of the lyric, -- I heard the beat I think I felt initially, again, and then noodled in, at the end; a "reggae" ish ? Bass, -- two beat bass actually, just a simple repeating more or less, two beat syncopated.

And, as always, this was done as all:
First-pass, One-take, uber-dub upon uber-dub Write While Recording, -- thing I do; -- and hope it catches on with more folks! (Or more come on board with it, that do it ? since, me, -- not a "recording artist" versus a performing one? And more experimental than karaoke-isms as I mostly seem to hear today?)

-- So, total accumulated time on this was approximately an hour, during this holiday weekend when had time! What a WONDERFUL Labor Day Sunday in the USA today! Aye!


So, derUgo!
