Hey hey,
even though Csound played a small part in this track, I wanted to share it:
https://youtu.be/1R3ROM1zI_4

I took the guiro model from Csound and generated a few samples with slightly 
different settings. The other element is the heavily flanged cymbals. There 
are two cymals and a total of four samples with lots of processing. In the end 
I had to lower them in the mix more than I really wanted to, because that 
sound in particular was important to me. So thanks Csound for enabling me to 
create it just right.

If anyone is interested the lyrics are below, it's a very positive, upbeat 
idea, told in two small episodes.

Best wishes and have a nice Sunday,

Jeanette
*** Lyrics ***
On a rainy day,
She ducks into a bookstore.
Out of courtesy
She buys a book on Ewe folklore.
Next thing you know
She's gonna go
And learn the lingo.
Not practical, but logical (who cares)
She's on sabbatical.
Eight years later she's mistress of the kidi
She's found her home in the band.
-
Give that girl a big banana,
'Cause she sees what's in front of her eyes.
If she sees a ripe papaya,
She'll make her catch fresh from the skies.

Tamsyn's heart is broken,
All relationships just die.
Even sweet and lovely Daniel
Couldn't make her bounce and fly.
She still went to that club tonight
To dance the pain away.
And there she found that smile so bright,
Now Lisa's here to stay.
-
Give that girl a big banana,
'Cause she sees what's in front of her eyes.
If she sees a ripe papaya,
She'll make her catch fresh from the skies.
*** End ***

Jeanette,

Nice.  Thanks for sharing.  A very complex and genre-defining song. Cool. Reminding me some of early Genesis ;-) I am always encouraging my students to find ways of using Csound in their treacle, songs, games, production work as you are doing and sharing here. Thanks for all your inspiring work.

Hello you three,
many thanks for your warm hearted reception. Even knowing - and liking - the 
early Genesis, I never saw that. Perhaps too focused on my own particular 
influences. Although I thought there's a bit of Roxanne, the the chord at the 
end of the verses and chorus. It might be written as a b flat minor 7 11.

I forgot one other Csound texture, in the first bridge between verse and 
chorus, based on white noise with some waveguide and more comb filtering for 
that unearthly, slippery feeling.

Best wishes,

Jeanette
