The Luck of the Draw (nothing but Dueces)

I did not have the time to mix the drums to snuff, nor nothing else for that matter.
 
I was afraid I might die before I posted this
 
all good so far, right?

    I don't think I've ever heard one of your tunes before - I like this. This tune is very loose - but everything seems to fit so well together - that can't be easy to do. I dig it.

    Jesse, I've noticed that over the last year or so your recordings are getting clearer and cleaner...this is bringing your work into focus. I like the placement of instruments and the lead vocal in this, nice sense of depth.

    Jesse, I don't know where to begin.  This song keeps playing over and over and over in my head.  Don't worry, there's plenty of room.

    All the best,

    your vocal on this one reminds me of Mark E Smith from The Fall (good thing)
    Some very creepy moments going on that don't give me a warm fuzzy feeling which should probably be the aim here right?
    Mix and clarity is very good

    Are Deuces lucky?  Only the shadow no's!  Excellent work as always.  Your background arrangements are part of your great packages you put together.  Simple gifts for us to chew on.

    Weird...   
     
    I am really curious about how you go about picking and choosing what goes where, and when, in your smorgasbord of musical riffs and sounds.

    Hey Steve, I wish you could see how I pick and choose.  I am very bohemian when it comes to composing, though not thoroughly bohemian when it comes to lifestyle. 
     
    I like the word weird, only because we often don't use it in it's first meaning, supernatural.  I like to pretend that when people use the "W" word in reference to my tunes, that they mean I am SUPERNATURAL, Ha HA!  I know that's not what they really mean but I kid myself into believing it, and I do not take offense to it at all.
     
    eph, are you still my number one fan?
     
    daryl1968, I am happy to hear that the piece made you "feel." To me that is paramount, make people feel, now if i can just get them to think too!  I love you man.
     
    Lynn Q2, right back at you!
     
    rural rocker, nothing is real!  I played everything, but most are samples, and of course the tidbits in sonar that allow my forays.
     
    Peace

    Jesse, if there was one person here that I might think of as supernatural, it just might be you.

    I will say this though; dispute it if you wish.
     
    There are four states of human existence, and they are as follows...
     
    who you think you are
    who you think other people think you are
    who other people think you are
    and who you are

    Yo Jess,
     
    Way cool, as usual.
     
    The only thing this stuff reminds me of is Captain Beefheart/Magic Band. Dissonant, arhythmic,  and gnarly as bloody hell.

    Your voice sounds like Dylan on speed. (He probably does that sometimes).  Like the Zappaesque quality.  Sounds like it was quite fun to do.  Am I hearing another voice in the background (child, perhaps)?

    Jesse, the ever inventive wonder amazes us anew with every outing, and this one is no exception.  I guess it's just the luck of the draw.
