TB: Let's talk about how this song came to be. Besides, what's wrong with five seconds of reverb? Just cut it off when you go to the ad break - I don't care. I said, look just dump it to tape, and tweak the speed of the tape up a bit. They did it with a computer, and you can hear that "gargle." That's what happens if you speed stuff up in a computer and try to keep the pitch the same. Because of that, they sped the whole track up, which was really annoying, because I can hear it. I don't like what the TV company did with it - they wanted 40 seconds, no more, and I delivered it at 40 seconds, but there's a five-second reverb tail hanging over. Now, I love "Travels in Nihilon," and think it's a wonderful representation of where you guys where at the time, but with this song you've become a mature, developed artist who knows his craft and the studio - and you've done all this in your little garden shed! The song sounds big, clean and clear.ĪP: It does sound clear and crisp, actually. TB: We were talking about " Travels in Nihilon," and how layered it is, then I listened to "Wonderfalls," and I thought it was a fantastic demonstration of just how far you've come since then. We'll be back in two weeks with a capital tune by Andy.
We had an amazing three-way tie in the guessing sweepstakes - Jordan Cooper, Thorn Brain, and Erin all simultaneously came to the same conclusion, with J.D. This week's song, " I Wonder Why the Wonderfalls," was written and recorded by Andy in 2003 for the TV show Wonderfalls.
