RE: maneki-neko 'ClayMan Chronicles' - FULL ALBUM
Yeah. Goingggggg to need a little more explanation here. I just rocked it for ten minutes in the van and either the music from Gumby is 40x more interesting and avant-garde than I remember or you are a pastiche sound editing and manipulating genius.
Or both.
Heh heh heh.
The music and sfx from 'the Adventures of Gumby' is wonderful.
This album was in no way a small undertaking for me. All the hi hats and snares and bass drums were taken out of context from random moments of speech and sfx from the show. Then chopping up the synthesizer flares, and looping the amazing textures from the backgrounds. And compiling it into something entirely new, but reminiscent of the shows original feelings.
The album is meant to chronicle a 24 hour period in the life of Gumby, sort of the deeper untold story.
It begins in the middle of the night in dream-state, progresses through a lovely morning, then sometime in the afternoon there is an amount of drama, with things taking a darker turn. Gumby's friends come to his aid after trials and tribulations, then the evening is spent in appreciation and somber reflection.
The album is divided into three acts, previously I had named and time stamped all the tracks, but I feel it actually works better as one continuous piece.
Thank you for enjoying.
Absolutely my man. I am somebody who can appreciate labor intensive craft that justifies itself in the end product. Killer job dude!!
