"The voices of people whose reality is far away, something in another life, part of another fable, just as your reality is part of another fable, and all of it part of the only fable, and the only history." From A Special Announcement by William Saroyan, in One Hundred Non-Royalty Radio Plays, 1941.

As we sneak-peeked a few months ago, here's our haunted clockwork cover of Pain in the Yeahs' "Disappear Easy," rapped by the aetheric voices coming through our Tesla spirit radio.

Asked to create a haunted clockwork / Tesla spirit radio cover of the video game Dissidia Final Fantasy's song "God in Fire," we found that the lyrics that spoke to us were in the song's bridge section. We were left wondering, "How can we stay on that bridge longer?" and "Where could that bridge lead?" The Muse whispered that one bridge could lead to another, in a network like something out of M. C. Escher. So we went through scores of Final Fantasy songs, looking for bridges and middle-eights with lyrics that resonated, so as to construct a mega-mix (with the twist that it's a mega-mix of non-famous refrains, since bridge melodies differ from the stanzas and choruses). We collected a dozen favorite bridges, linked together like the disparate themes in the soundtrack of Disney's Spectromagic parade. Most of the songs were in Japanese, and the standard English translations weren't syllabified to the music, so we had to retranslate them. (Where we retain Japanese phrases, the meanings are made clear by the rest of the translated stanza.) The voices emerging through the Tesla spirit radio had some things to say about sonic bridges for our transitions between Final Fantasy snippets. We typically present our megamix videos set in a mysterious realm we call the VIP Room, so we took that approach with this track. "We went over one bridge after another, while below us the water sang on its way and above us the purple shadows of the hills stretched forever into distant blue skies" (Regina Jais, 1930).
Now this, this is beautiful. This is exactly what a true song is to me, one the makes you feel, remember, and takes you on a new journey, all at once. This went above and beyond anything I had thought of, and I absolutely love it. The creativity you are able to put in your tracks is always great, but this has swiftly become one of my favourites. I'll be listening to this one many times in the future.

UPDATED: Thanks to Max Stark of Synthgrinder for saying, " Loved your video. Your work is highly polished, and quite tastefully bizarre and inventive."We're honored that Bristol's Bearcraft wanted to hear his song "We Don't Deserve to Die" via our Tesla spirit radio and haunted grandfather clock. Thanks to Vegas headliner Jeff McBride for saying, "T his work is among your very best. So haunting and beautiful!"
