Description
Another song for the RPM Challenge, and admittedly this one's really a doodle. In the words of another: "you'll need either a very open mind or a very stoned mind to make it through. (Or maybe a very distracted mind.) You've been warned."
Banjo and vocoder probably make for an odd combo, but when you throw in the kalimba, it's just sure to confuse!

when I go to the shore
feel the breeze on my skin
and it's cold nevermore
I will know to come again

Wow - great sound
Love the use of banjo here - and the combination between acoustic and electric - very artfully done!

definitely experimental
Crazy stuff Jim. Did you finish the RPM alright? I've got a bit of an exausted mind and made it through so add that to the list.

Nice work.

Coooool....
Interesting sounds make for a very trippy track.

The vocal comes through a bit very loud. Maybe a compressor could tame that a bit?

I like
what sounds like wooden wind chimes to me. I like the sometimes-dissonant banjo, too. I could do without the frog-like, croaking sounds. It trivializes the work to me, somehow. Otherwise, I must have ADD, because I was fine, ha ha!

I really like the idea of a disguised vocal message. Reminds me of an acoustic-friendly, "OK Computer".
