(TV) our version of friction

[Martin Olson <martin@hotresponse.com>]

Hi all,

	First off many thanks for the nice comments about our version 
of Friction.  It's worth pointing out though that the song was 
mistakenly listed as being just by me when in fact it should be 
listed as Shallow End (which is collectively my friend Brad Bennet 
and I).  Credit where credit is due and all that...

	Someone asked what was used to record the thing soooo: The 
track was recorded onto a Mac G3 running ProTools and lot of 
different toys (guitars, bass, Roland Juno 60, tr 505 drum machine 
(for noise), Steinberg ReBirth, korg pandora 3 effects processor and 
a crateload of various samples n' noises).  The whole thing was a 
disturbingly cut n' paste affair which works for some stuff but 
drives me completely batty at other times.  At the end of the day 
though, I'm pretty happy with how all the pieces hang together (and 
that we managed to work in Television, beach boys AND G.I. Joe 
samples)...  Sorry for kind of botching the lyrics, we were working 
from an incomplete set and making up the bits that we couldn't figure 
out!

	As for what influenced the sound of this particular song the 
most, I think both of us would point to Japanese cut n' paste rocker 
Cornelius as the most direct, obvious inspiration for the somewhat 
schizophrenic sound of the track, but other things were of course 
always in the background.

But, um, yeah: thanks again.  Keith, the pic and info is coming, I promise.
