Dreaming

 

"This is a cover of Blondie classic from the late seventies, with D'Arcy handling most of the vocals. We decided to do this with a breezy hippity-hop vibe, with a little Joy Division thrown in for good measure. Interestingly enough, this song was plagued with all sorts of technical problems that made mic-ing it a technical nightmare- vocals with electrical noises, drum loops with scratch guitars recorded over them, etc. "

Guitar School: In your version of Blondie's "Dreaming," the main riff is rendered kind of atonally. It sounds like a guitar through some sort of random harmonizer program.

Billy: A ring modulator, actually.

James: And I played an auto wah-wah part on that. Just some patch in some rack. That was the name of the patch.

Billy: It went together with the ring modulator surprisingly well. If you listened to it on its own, it sounded like crap, but with the ring modulator, it was blissful
