Pete Standing Alone


Recommended Posts

i used to really really like this track, but now with my overly rational musical mind i've realised what a simple note progression it is..

 

but i'm giving it a listen again now, and damn. it really is a good track. there is beauty in simplicity

great fucking track. Tarsier, didn't you just get MHTRTC? you need to listen to it a lot more. i mean a LOT more. like 200 more times.

 

out of all the music i own, this cd has easily received the most spins over the past 8 years, and i'm still discovering little nuances.

 

you've only just begun.

 

yes, and that vocal sample is awesome. i always thought he was saying "violence"

 

nope, it goes ONE. its kind of drawn out because its slowed down abit. it is also given a fader cut tratment so it goes (phonetically)

 

WON

 

W-

 

W-

 

WONNN

 

just the first part of the word is heard in some instances, for funkiness. and oh my god can anyone correlate this sample with the title? pete standing alone: ONE.

A bit O' trivia for you lot:

 

The trackname refers to an actual person, an Native American Indian named Pete Standing Alone, who in the film, Circle of the Sun (1960) is our guide to his life as a typical young member of the Blood Tribe. He talks about his regular life and thoughts while he attends the traditional Sun Dance ritual which is part of his people's struggle to keep their heritage alive.

 

why isn't more info like this on fred-e's site???

 

if lol alzado, as do i, can discover something new on MHTRTC post-200 listens,

 

let ALONE on Geogaddi

 

then why why why do I have to see the same bullshit everyday I go to that site?

 

Fredd-e: do you want me to take over the reigns, give you a hand, or are you just not getting

 

enough fodder from the fans?

 

No hard feelings, just curious

 

It is in fact mentioned on my pages, altough not as extensive (i'll edit it and credit it to Joyrex):

 

"pete standing alone is the name of a native American actor who appeared in 7 films made by the National Film Boards of Canada."

 

if people mail me interesting new finds I'm more than happy to add them on my pages; so if you want to help by giving me new and valuable information..... you know how to contact me :-)

 

and uhm "same bullshit everyday" .. what do you expect? you can't expect that the content on various items will constantly change; there's really no need to.. facts remain facts

Pete Standing Alone is probably my favorite BoC track. Seriously, it is perfect is every conceivable way. The beats and texture are so awsome and crunchy. As for the "roar", I thought it was awsome the first tiem I heard it. Just something about it; it just goes so well with the rest of the song.

DAMN this track got me into BoC. the break down at 3:28 totally blew me away. so punchy, open...awesome. and that 'roar' i LOVE how its diff lengths everytime...8 varying stabs...'rrrraaaaaow', 'ra','rraaow, SO FUCKING COOL. that bit has always freaked me out.

 

this track opened the door for me. embrace the 'roar' its a fuckin TUFF sample.
