When catching up on some SP episodes this weekend I cam across this: an episode where kyle gets kidnapped by apple, because he did not read the iTunes contract before clicking agree. this brought me back to our discussion about Facebook and their terms and agreement.
"The third single to be released was "Deer in the Headlights",[3] released on May 24, 2011 (but as an iTunes Exclusive, was made available for download the previous day). The single was announced in a different way than what is considered traditional. Starting May 16, 2011, every day of that week part of the song would be added to the sneak peek.[14] It was originally just called "New Song", and fans had to guess the new song. The first part of the song to be released were the drums, followed by the addition of bass, guitar, synthesizer, and vocals over the next four days. On the final day, the title for the song was announced."
This came to mind when I read the "studio as a compositional tool." Owl City made the layers of his new song very transparent to his listeners as a way of introducing his latest song.
Unfortunately links were only active for 24 hours with each instrument. So, I have nothing for you to listen to...
