I was on the phone with Snowflake today and recorded this after our talk. She was looking out at her pecan tree during the call and I was watching the squirrels under our 130 year old oak tree…

Can a REMIX RELAY start as a short poem??? Why not?!! For this one, feel free to add a verse or verses or a sample…

Here are mwic’s Remix Relax instructions:

Welcome to our *second* Remix Relay

What’s a remix relay? We’re still figuring that out, but the idea is simple: you take a sample and add one thing to it.* Then someone else adds one more thing… then it keeps going until the relay is over. Or until forever.

At MixterPlus, we’re working on making this easy and pretty, with tools and stuff. But for now we’ll just use tags.

- Put “remix_relay” into the tags
- Anyone can pick up the baton, but if you have someone particular in mind, add their name(s) as tags.

*Everyone is, of course, always free to fully remix the sample the way we always do. Just don’t add the “remix_relay” tag if you’re doing so.


LYRICS

I looked outside today
The oak tree standing strong
The squirrels running along
Gathering acorns, hiding them for the future
Just as I was doubting
That there would be one
I was reminded
Consciousness always finds a way
