not proggy? i beg to differ! great stuff. love the ascending chord sequence before the solo. which is excellent in itself. a few of the vocal harmonies were a bit off in the aforementioned pre-solo part. overall this is awesome! OOOH and the guitar swell solo outro is f'ing genius!
Thanks, Mark! OK, that's two for prog...
The ascending progression took a few variations before settling on that one, and the vocal lines are very weird! Re: the second solo.... that's actually a solo played in reverse. I recorded three takes, liked the last one best so used that throughout, but then decided to also fade in the first two takes at left and right for a bit of a weaving effect.

Hey Stevec,
I really love this song! The whole atmosphere's great, the voice call and harmony responses are very satisfying. The bass and drums are solid and punchy. My favourite bit is "As the room spins out of control ...." etc. The deep voice and melody are just super there... you can picture yourself in a dark, confusing, but tempting and exciting situation. Just great :) LJ
Why, thank you Miss Laura! I was certainly going for atmosphere, and the "room" section was supposed to be part of that (I usually don't sing that low!). Dark and confusing, yet tempting and exciting... I like it.
