I’ve had 4 songs on the go this past month – and by on the go, I mean in various stages of recording, not just ’song seeds’; adding those would be exponential.  As time ran out, I decided I should finish just one.  Or pretend to finish one.  Even that didn’t go to plan, but I won’t bore you with the details…I’ve done that enough already in other recent posts.

My love of both electronica and choral music has long been something I’ve wanted to see combined.  My January song  (which Diane tells me she will make a video for…once she’s got Adobe CS sorted!) started me on this journey of creating armchair techno with some choral elements.

So this month, The Matrix takes it further by not really having much in the way of  ‘pop song’ melodic elements.  This is partly because making a choir from one person is rather time-consuming.  It’s probably a somewhat logical extension of Unchangeable Truth, but that’s in my mind, and we’ve discovered how hard my mind can be to work out in the past few weeks.

As usual, rip it apart.  I live for the carnage.

Oh yeah, some of the lyrics are in contemporary Latin (as opposed to Latin Vulgate). Of course.  It’s all based around Isaiah 49:1-4, specifically the NKJ translation.  It has nothing to do with the movie trilogy, or mathematics.

Or does it…

Um, no…it doesn’t.  And, just in case you were wondering, I do have lots to say about it, but since I shared mine upfront last time, I’m keeping my mouth shut until you go first.  One thing I will say is given how late this already is, the mix is messy as I didn’t spend any time playing with it like I would usually do.  It’s all about time ‘n’ that.
