vol. 2 of tracks contributed to compilations and such

[General reminder that these tracks were very often each one of many tracks contributed by many artists/groups/whatnot. So, something to look into and hear. perhaps.]

Agh Eeh Emm, one of several contributed, to Record Every Month compilation, this for September 2021.

[But not able to find any KR Seward tracks in any monthly Record Every Month challenge radio shows. So. Umm. No real links to tracks. Eh. Feel free to cite Berkeley here.]

So, later on, Ash Tree Step was submitted for February 2022.

Another loose end: Covers. So rarely ever do covers:

"Put A Straw Under Baby" for {AN} Eel's compilation of Brian Eno covers, Here Come The Warm Regards, a Ttibute to Brian Eno.

Not a cover per se,30 Century Rain was more a blend of "30 Century Man" and "It's Raining Again". Done for Argali Records tribute, Walker: In Light And Darkness.

AM Tilt was contributed to a tribute to women artists (Agnes Martin was in mind here). The compilation was called Cauldron Deep Aesthetics, by Institute for Alien Research.

Not any kind of cover was As A, done for the Holy Cloud compilation for Default Standard records.

Wandered Past

Wandered Past by krseward

The words that come to mind are: "Who can say?"

Beyond that open question, there's the not-so-sympathetic (indeed, plucked) strings of an electric sitar, the thrum pulse of low feedback (our old friend, the cheesy karaoke machine), the squee and swoo of high feedback (ditto the karaoke), and something that's likely my voice as quoted by the ever glamorous Yamaha VSS-30 sampler. Some bits are fooled with via a MadShifta pitch shifter VST of yore but are mostly just as God made them.

With that density of musitech geekery who can hold back?

Comet to Raynor

Place names and puns often mislead. But this is short long time of suspended animation. Something like a swampglacier, as if that were a word or a sensible notion to have.

Comet to Raynor by krseward

Yet again with the almost zither, this time ebowed. And sometimes amplified/echofied thru the mighty aliasing karaoke machine. Sometimes not.

Downward Rise

Downward Rise by krseward

Again with the droning & feedback & dubious karaoke amplification.

Along with something almost melodic played (again & again) on every museum gift shop's favorite almost zither, the Music Maker.

All Nite Ramble

This, like many things recently posted, is long and wicked discursive.

But one gloss, this features the same wayward saxophone heard on Grunt Grunt Pig and other such.
