0 I. … regularly exhausted from having to wake up to the initial catalyst for that vision inside them to eventually emerge, they‘d spend some time desperately try‘ng to put a lid on it, suppressing the energy, while slowly losing control of rediscovering things… II. … he‘d realized that they‘d been looking at this damn thing, way out of reach, for years + years ‘The guitar can‘t speak unless you hit it, as there‘s two sides to every story‘, he said, ‘+ if there‘s no connection, then you‘re getting - what? - like, two + a half stories? Somehow you have to get those two sides to love each other, learning the feel + the touch of that string + what it does against the neck, the fret – then you can add the effects later on‘ From list‘ning off that record over + over again they‘d learn what would prove to be enough for them in terms of getting started; they would spend all day playing (maybe just sublimating) for a while, all their emotions going into the obsessiveness (whatever was happening inside them, they would put it all in there), sitting around, basically trying to just figure out the mysteries of how to handle that stuff, troubling each other to show the simplest, most minimal (yet maybe most beautiful, so sustained + unresolved sounding, still hypnotic - like a blank canvas sitting on an easel, waiting for strokes of a brush to cover, like, every damned inch of it, just emitting some kind of pure, raw, challenging energy -) aspects of it to complete strangers (who kinda could not even be bothered to shift their fingers for it at first), coming in with their ideas, turning it into something far more interesting at times, conveying their reactions to what was going on there… III. … + then you find the cat, who'd turned on the man, who turned the man on (‘cause if this cat just turns you on so much, he must have listened to a cat that had him turned on), + that‘s how you just keep on learning more + more + more about things (like their alternate tunings) So it‘s this endless kind of call + response, the 3 d of it being to just leave this space, this little bit of silence here + there (as if it was an extra tool, this special way of pushing + leaving off at certain points, creating intense tension, but far from being just, like, another means to an end) + how to move it around (There‘s no formula for this - it really comes down to the song, the material, + the company, like, who you‘re gonna end up playing with) It‘s all about going through a lot of semi-conceived ideas being refiltered through adding new colors + making the whole thing stick out - with all those different kinds of ‘what ifs‘ emerging during - (th)a(t) process of producing that depth, until it just strikes people, for being so stark, as probably one of the heaviest hammers ever to hit them, when they first hear it, representing, like, the very essence of just one particular moment of a certain experience ...
