CRES72 by dead lizard grin
On September 19th, 2016, an anonymous YouTube user uploaded an old audio tape with this description:
"This is a studio outtake during the "[album title - redacted]" sessions. It is [CRES - name redacted] tooling around with some acoustic guitar ideas, vocal sounds . . ."
The "vocal sounds" appear to be [CRES] testing out a multi-tracked vocal idea.
"CRES72" is built upon looped and time-stretched sections of this experiment. After selection and preparation, I have layered these loops upon one another, repeating them in and out of sync, with differing/shifting equalization and reverb settings applied.
This is intended as a tribute to a inspiring musician who departed this world on June 27, 2015, and the result is a shimmering drone in the form of an infinite chorus of a gone -- but not lost, never forgotten -- voice.

I grew up in the Midwest of America. I've lived in the remote Manu'a Islands in the South Pacific and Southern California.
My youth was experienced through the sonic lens of '70s European electronic music, the ambient sounds of Eno, and the darker side of '80s new wave, post punk, and new romantic.
Today, I create the soundtrack for my life; an accompaniment for the existence that I've known.
