Bill keeps it modern by selecting HMFR band, Lord Huron

• An actual podcast

• HMFR = Hipster Millennial Folk Rock

• Teen anthem?

• “Emblematic”: 3

Addenda

• Guitar sound on Badalamenti’s “Twin Peaks” theme: sampled guitar sound via E-mu Emulator II synth, using a “Duane Eddy” style guitar sound (ie, fat and hollow Gretsch… score 1 for Waldron), but reaching two whole steps below the lowest note of a normally tuned guitar (unnoticed by Waldron, remove ½ point)

• Learn more about Linear Drumming

• Not technically a waltz, not 6/8, “The Night We Met” alternates between 9/8 and 12/8, or 6/8 with 3/8 thrown in here & there, depending on where you look. Definitely feels like a waltz, yes?
