Written in 1991 / Recorded in 1991 and 2015
This was more about a tryout of a recording method I came across in a Syd Barrett album, Madcap Laughs, in which, every recording process began with capturing Syd's rhythm guitar and vocal parts, then all other accompaniments - including even the drums - were later overdubbed. I even tried to reconstruct the atmosphere of the album by featuring unnecessary guitar noise in the intro and a fake correspondence with the recording engineer in the end. I tried to play the rhythm guitar occasionally out of the rhythm in order to make accompaniment parts harder to play, deliberately.
For making the video, I tried to remove my voice part and replace it with the newly added lead guitar part. However, since the microphone used for capturing the original rhythm guitar part also captured my voice part, I could not perfectly remove it from the final mix. In addition, due to a mechanical problem occurred during the video making, I had to struggle to make the new guitar part synchronise with all the rest. In this sense, the song is yet in its unfinished stage whether or not it is deliberately...
