Ken Clinger – State of Flux (Recording Discussion, 2010)

Ken Clinger – State of Flux (Recording Discussion, 2010)


Lyrics by Craig Conley, music and performance by Ken Clinger.

The inspiration for the piece was Craig Conley’s lyrics, which were originally part of Captive Audience’s “Esperantoland” project, from the late 1990s. The recording process was entirely with Apple’s GarageBand software, based on the opening guitar arpeggio measure. Between it and the lyrics, everything else pretty much fell into place (over a period of 3 weeks).


We reached out to 100 or so of our closest recording artist friends to make an mp3 CD of music and discussions around the making of each track. The full album is available as a free download on the Internet Archive. An index is HERE on GAJOOB linking to pages of discussions. Discussions Vol. 2 is open for recordings.
