What a pleasure to draw the ever-so-talented 7OOP3D of whom I’m a long fan. I’d intended to combine several works, alas this one title had over 15 awesome samples and that kept me very busy. :) I did a lot of cutting, sometimes even down to 32nd notes, forming new melodies and loops from their wide, rich sounds. I also played some mediocre piano, synth bass, organ and strings (but my good keyboard is on the fritz!).

I ended up with so many tracks in this mix that I got an error from Pro Tools saying I’d need to delete one to have them all play. Needless to say this mix has a lot going on and I think I need more time to get all of the EQs and placement right - my ears are confused!

I’d intended this track to be instrumental but a melody and words wouldn’t leave me alone….

Here is the pell. I also uploaded an instrumental version.

Happy Birthday ccMixter!

Fever

Ice shelves flow like rivers
Currents stop, confused

Humans sweat and shiver
Their Mother has been abused

Been abused, she is abused

Seaboard caught by winter
From currents all confused

While deserts beg for water
The woodlands are misused

Misused

Fever
Feel the fever
There’s a fever
Taking a hold

Fever
Feel the fever
There’s a fever
Won’t let go

Hope
Carry us home
