Now playing week 42: psychedelic electronic composition called ‘bix spiderbite’ by jazzresin

in #nowplaying6 years ago

Released to the stores yesterday just in time for halloween. Time hacked fx on a long fuzzed blues guitar stepping on a glitched dubstep created using akai iMpc pro and apples garageband. The fx was indeed a bit of a hack as it required porting out then remixing in.

The title stems from an encounter with a lovely lady outside of shakespeares pizza in columbia missouri. She had made a tape of bix biederbackes music. When she first said the name my mind heard it as bix spiderback. At the time i was so lost in studies and entheogens to realize she liked me and for some reason i thought she had a boyfriend already. Sigh. Alternative realities beckon when kyrios misfires.

I wish i could see her and thank her. I ended up loving the music and the story of a white boy from iowa rising meteoric through musical innovation, love, and partying to briefly wear the crown of the horn player such as the likes of king oliver, louis armstrong, buddy bolden. He died young due to alchohol. Most likely the tainted poisonous prohibition booze sped up his demise. Check out this all time desert island favorite of mine featuring Bix, a young Bing Crosby and c melody saxophonist frankie traumbauer. Called taint no sweet(thats worth the salt of my tears). The irony of it all is not lost.

How cool was that of street playing!

Your theme quite immersive, I'm not too good describing music in english so will hold on your words.

Thanks so much for sharing these gems @jazzresin, really appreciated.

Thanx! I miss it. The life the street. Im holed up in a small town i moved here wth a woman. She was just using me, now i am qute stranded. Need to use the section 8 to get up out of here and back to some semblence of civilization. Ive always had difficulties knowing where to live. I know i dont need to be here. Sigh.

Hope you'r able to soon recover your stability. Those women! I'm divorced so could talk for hours but I prefer to look ahead and live, past times weren't always better so I don't stick to It.
My best wishes for you 😉

I hear that. Holding anger is letting that person exist rent free in your mind.

As a former resident of Missouri, I'm well aware of the magic of Shakespear's Pizza.. I really dug this. - Shane

Thanks @steemcreative it has been awesome to see my recordings get distributed thru swedish record company amuse. If you or friends want their music to level up pass this information on about http://amuse.io

I havent been to shakespeares or columbia since there was a bunch of high rise apts right there on the spot of shakespeares. I think though that it will still exist as the first floor.
