to spin inside dull aberrations (overdub mix)

i've included the raw mix to document what the track sounded like in 2001. so, i've included an overdub only mix as a counter to it to document what was added in 2014. paste the two on top of each other to get the cubase output of the track.

created over august and september, 2014 to augment track written late in the summer of 2001.

i'm actually going to skip the part altogether...

it's a neat riff, don't get me wrong, but it works in contrast to the cracked out white zombie riff - if it's played once. maybe twice. but over a four bar repeat, playing them off against each other ruins both.

i can't put it at the front or the middle as that would be anti-climatic. and it doesn't work at the end, either.

there's enough pizzicato bass in the world. the song doesn't need it.

that means i'm done the first part. amazingly.

well, let me sleep on it...
actually, i want it to cut across the mix a bit higher, so this descending pizzicato part is going to be done with a sequencer.

finally. give it some volume. final bass part should be quick to do...
