Album Review: Gene Clark – No Other (1974)

https://youtu.be/Gu4KRduDiuk Gene Clark was the best songwriter in the Byrds early period. Many consider this a lost classic & his last great offering. Some call it a forerunner to late 70s blockbusters like Rumors, though less conciliatory to pop norms.

“My Resistance Is Not My Personality” by The David Conspiracy (disquiet0612)

Process notes –
On Sep 23, 2023 and in the presence of an army of active landscaping equipment, I recorded a non-name eBay piccolo snare drum in twenty different short recordings using exciters and techniques. This I arranged into three track groups for left, right and center, each with an effects chain containing an Ableton Corpus and a Melda Production MAutoPitch into my standard channel rack. These clips were arranged over a straight recording of the landscaping equipment split into two stereo tracks, both through an Ableton Resonator and a Melda Production MAutoPitch.

I didn’t want to present a linear walk, so I went with a busy walk through an airport or major train station as my guide…with landscapers…
