about

A Kaossilator loop, dialogue samples & youtube extracts of a very ambitious young lady's to-do-list began this track, then on 4/29/14 group vocal choruses & instrumental performances were added by the autistic students from 3 Long Branch Middle Schools: Anastasia, Gregory & LB Middle Schools, during a Media Center @ Ballard visit My student Alex also performed on the Novation Launchpad & Korg Kaossilator back at the MC@B in Asbury Park. Several bars of Alex's foot drum playing are looped too.
An M-Audio USB keyboard, Novation Launchpad controller & a Blue Nessie USB mic were used to record into Ableton Live on a Macbook Pro 13".

lyrics

S is for the Jersey Shore where
U and I are going
M it stands for more
M-ore moving and more growing - yeah we'll do
E-verything that's worth remembering, we'll
Reign like kings this Summer, Summer, Summer!
Summer, Summer, Summer! Summer, Summer!
[SAMPLES:] It's a beautiful world ... outside. But the beach - you remember the beach?
You shall not pass! But I passed math ... I PASSED MATH. etc

Joe Harvard recommends:

ONE ep
by Bareface

Solid songs & DIY, no nonsense recordings. Sweet. Joe Harvard
go to album
St. Sebastian of the Short Stage (EP)
by Franz Nicolay

This LP has a nicely boisterous cover of the Modern Lovers' "New England", plus some cool bell timbres & a neat story line on "Ballad of Hollis Mason Wadsworth Jr". The other tunes are cool too. Joe Harvard

Hopelessness
by 117

117 is the brainchild of Ben Ross, & Hopelessness aptly provides the same gritty, powerful, often wry material their live sets have become known for. Joe Harvard
