Music By Benway
This is the 12th in a series of music videos documenting my musical progression from utterly rubbish, to somewhere around almost half decent.
The video is simply a visualisation on Winamp, for which I claim no artistic credit. It's simply something to look at while listening to the music.
Going by the band name "Overjoy", this was recorded in 1991 using a Tascam Porta 01 4-track portastudio, and like most of the tunes under the Overjoy band name, was intended to be played by a band. Again, this sounds better through headphones than from speakers.
In this form, this tune is repetitive and boring. It was originally recorded with a Mark E Smithesque voiceover, but I was so embarrassed at hearing my own voice on the track, which I thought sounded awful, that I removed it. The main inspiration for the now missing vocal track was Winter, by The Fall, while the inspiration for the music was more from the Frenz Experiment era Fall sound.
