@@gwaunch1967 Let me please answer in detail when all odds and ends are digested. So many new and indeed freshening perspectives. Is Gwaunch an alias for Anon? Sorry. My suspicious mind. Read it as a compliment. 👍🏿
@@deepbreatherif you’re asking whether I’m also Anonymuse, sadly not. He is a good friend of mine tho, he helped provide another perspective on a few of these tracks while I was working on them. I will gladly take that as a compliment!
The Open Country Part 1, I restrict myself. Couldn't think of a better way to assemble IIGS and Barnyard. Starting in the Durry groove, overlayed with piano and saxophone from the official sessions. Brian's Harvey voice configured as never before making my wish for new vocals redundant. Everything is meticulously synchronised in that 6/8 beat (is it indeed 6/8??), and all the rhythmic discomfort of previous mixes is finally gone. A few seconds of "silence" (no voice, no instruments) suggest the real open country before Barnyard sets in. Miraculous. 1.56 I love that bonus, be it genuine or not. A connaisseur's gift. Discuss. I have been a longtime defender of IIGS as a second insert in H&V but I give it up now. What do you think of Open Country immediately after H&V? The Durry groove continues and reverberates in that same energy where H&V left off, reminiscing In The Canteen's 6/8 beat. Almost Woody W. cartoon, leaving the town after breakfast and on our long journey to the city, in the great wide open, suddenly surrounded by goats, cows, chickens... Plymouth Rock after H&V is too much at once, it sucks, similar bicycles notwithstanding while Open Country after Plymouth is too late in the day. Call it an interlude that brings us after 1.27 minutes to that Rock. And roll. That H&V theme worn out by worms is more valid after the short break. The iron horse already visible on the horizon 🚃 There are many more odds and ends, great inventions They sound like a new era in SmiLe (de-)mixing has arrived. Look at me jump!I will come back here, I hope. Fewer words, I promise. BTW Open Country Part 2? Making fun of Heroes and Villains Part 1 and Part 2. Right on, brother, right on. Mahala etc.
Anyway, this is all very, very worthwhile. Those Father bits, for instance, I don't remember enjoying this much six months ago. And Surf's Up is in a great brilliant necklace shape. New horizons indeed: a compelling pearly white collaboration with Bowman. Fruition. May the great Nameless soon join your partnership. Yes, the spirit of cooperation and sunshine tomorrow. A triumvirate (2025).
immediately subbed. this + dae lims ai smile completely re-ignited my obsession with the jigsaw puzzle that is smile, and i will absolutely be using these as any inspiration for personal mixes. the work is truly NEVER finished. much love
Thank you very much! In fact, your videos are some of the first ones I heard when I discovered the plethora of SMiLE fanmixes. Hearing the way you and others wove these pieces together is what got me into mixing. So really, thank you.
The chord progression to wonderful has by far the most intoxicating a luring intriguing. Sophisticated nuanced brilliant and genius core progression. I've ever come across period it's utterly my blowing listening to just the simple chord progression on keys. There is something about it.. Brahms gershwin beethoven any would be proud of that.
Oh also, it's funny you mention a possible connection between Love To Say Dada and Do You Like Worms, because I was just thinking the other day that Cool Cool Water could transition nicely into the Hawaiian chant outro from DYLW.
Nice, well done!! Not sure about the dada connection though, two very different songs. Always loved dada and also the vegetables fade, the latter quite hard to find complete.
@@bgbstrm2352 Thank you for your comment! It’s been a while since I’ve heard that particular episode of Sail On, but IIRC the DYLW verse vocals were recorded onto a separate tape at the same session as the “Taped Strings” and “Fender Rhodes” Dada tracks. Brian can also be heard on tape saying “let’s put them together”, implying he wanted to use those vocals not as part of DYLW, but as an intro for Dada. At this point, Brian had already taken the Bicycle Rider bridge for Heroes, so DYLW was essentially abandoned. I definitely prefer DYLW and Dada as we currently know them, but it was also fun playing around with some new and different ideas. Glad you enjoyed the mix!
@@gwaunch1967 >Brian had already taken the Bicycle Rider bridge for Heroes, so DYLW was essentially abandoned. I wouldn't completely trash it, the bicycle rider bridge appears at least twice on smiley Smile (H&V and Wonderful), so he wasn't completely afraid of recycling themes.
My roommate heard the woody wood pecker trumpet out of context and made fun of it, i would have been offended, but then the looney tune guitar, fart and grossed out Brian came om so fair play to her.

Woke up this morning, tumbled out of bed, freshening air around my head. This is not junk, rather new horizons of everlasting sunshine.
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed!

I appreciate you fitting Mama Says into the Smiley Smile Vegetables! I've always felt the song was incomplete without it.
Wonderful 2024 was so Wonderful. I.
Have tears in my eyes.!
20:48 Brian would've 100% made an uh oh stinky joke as a Psycodelic sound if he was making SMiLE in the late 2010s

Why have I only just seen this? Genius from you as per, love and mercy brother

That DYLW section on the same reel as the early DaDa is a mind blowing discovery. Especially when it sounds like Mike is singing ‘ooo, Dada’ on it.
Really cool stuff man!
@@thresher_and_hover Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
❤
Thank you, it means a lot coming from you!
Thank you! Love it!
Then I'll do something with Cabin Essence's secret vocals from dennis

Thematically, DYLW and Dada/In Blue Hawaii makes sense if you trust that some of BWPS is "canonical".

I wouldn't completely trash it, the bicycle rider bridge appears at least twice on smiley Smile (H&V and Wonderful), so he wasn't completely afraid of recycling themes.
very nice sequencing - blends together very well.
My roommate heard the woody wood pecker trumpet out of context and made fun of it, i would have been offended, but then the looney tune guitar, fart and grossed out Brian came om so fair play to her.
what was that fart in the end?? where was it from lmfao.
Hi G !
I'm so confused and tired
