Alien In A Garbage Dump
Eric Copeland's new warped tape looping track "Alien In A Garbage Dump" sounds a bit like a nightmare or if, while you were sleeping, someone injected you with LSD and placed an antenna on your head causing you to pick up signals from the world around you.
The track does pose similarities to Steve Reich's "Come Out", due to the heavy rotation of a track with man saying "just don't do it" over and over, as well other tapes of spoken word phrases. Yet supporting and surrounding all the spliced voice tracks and warped vocals are police sirens, honking horns, the banging of trash can lids, and various synth effects with a strong beat sporadically employed in the mix. Which, all could possibly be the sounds that an alien might hear if he was having a bad trip in a garbage dump and was picking up radio signals. This loopes back to my beginning theory.
