"Static = not always bad"
date: August 24, 2008
Heh. I kinda like the effect the static has, it makes it feel somehow dirtier and more gritty, like it came from (and has the attitude of) of a junkyard.
Yes, it conjurs up the image of rusted metal and haf-hazard hydrolics, of billowing smoke coming out of a slipshod diesel engine. Imagine, if you will, a small group getting together in a montage to build a giant machine of some sort from scrap, and it works far better than it should, albeit with a decidedly more than healthy amount of exhaust coming out of it.
Alternatively:
A bunch'a doods find this old limo and trick it out like nothing on the planet. The first visible side effect is that it looks like it belongs in Death Race now. From there we get the first roar of its brand new exhaust spewing engine and a few shots of its inner workings as they fire up one by one. And lastly, they use it to plow through a funeral prosession and drive off straight through a mansion into the sunrise.
Oh, man. I'm gonna have to get Flash now, aren't I?
Seriously, four ideas, all of them bound to be awesome, and no way to show anyone else unless I fall back on words. I'm going to get flash sometime in the future, and when I do, this piece (and every other piece I have ideas for) had better still be available! Because it will most definitely NOT be with this computer!
Back on track a moment.
Seriously, I think the slight static actually adds to the texture of the music. It gives a distinctive feel, kinda like walking into an abandoned warehouse and finding a working car/tank hybrid, then useing it.
