Re: "I'm a Big Sister..." thread.
Loving this more and more with each listen. Certainly not as urgent as the beat-heavy "Lovely Broken Thing" or darkly lyrical as "Pizza For Eggs", but these soundscapes are just beautiful!
Anyone catching the vocal samples, some we've heard before: "I'm a lonely bollock. Sometimes, happy bollock"! Throughout "Peach Tree" there's a phased and vocoded female voice, sounds to me like "I'm not imitating..."
Also, have you noticed that this latyest River Run, but indeed all of them, have made a lot of use of inserted silences? That is, the music or Karl's vocals have short spaces of silence at various frequencies, so it sounds very spaced. "Peach Tree" does this with the two pads, but the frequencies at which they alternate are different, so that sometimes they construct and sometimes they are out of phase. Karl's vocals on "Mowed Path" are also very spcaed, making them sound "beep"-like. I think the delays are used a lot on the guitar parts on "P4E", especially.
