The Money Helps Everything Go Away by Smile Puppy

Recorded & mixed Jun 25 2023 by Jim Lemanowicz at Blissville Electro-Magnetic Laboratories of Massapequa.

Process notes – for this, I started with the template – the sounds – from a Smile Puppy track I did for Junto #0546 and used musical elements from a November 5, 2005 FL Studio fragment named “Spunker.”

I converted the FL Studio tracks to audio – my voice, a Moog sample and some drums – and then further converted that to MIDI melody or drums within Live. From there I started to pare back my elements and made a quick arrangement after letting it sit for a few hours.
