Smoke The Banana Peel And Drink The Green Gravy (disquiet0685)

Recorded, mixed & mastered on 13 Feb 2025 by Jim Lemanowicz at Blissville Electro-Magnetic Laboratories of Massapequa, USA & Union Square, NYC, USA.

Synths, reverb, echo.

Several influences shaped this recording:
1 – My attempts to modify Karplus-Strong keep crashing Max
2 – I listened to Zappa’s “Lumpy Gravy” today, which mentions pickup sticks
3 – I envisioned the game as a collage
4 – I imagined tapping into the thoughts of various players
5 – I wanted to incorporate a Polivoks synth emulator
6 – I reflected on how each stick is nearly identical
