about

09 Lift This Stone
Dan Nettles: Guitars
Rick Lollar: Guitars
Robby Handley: Bass
Marlon Patton: Drums & bathroom fan vent cover
Clapping by Marlon and Robby

Composition and recording:
In drop D yet again, the second section of this song emerged from an experiment with huge, open string voicings on the guitar. Something about that F#- chord to the D major really caught my ear, and I followed that thru for the rest of the progression. You may have noticed, I rely several times thru this record on the 6th interval to generate melodies, and that is true here also. The opening phrase is reminiscent of the last phrase of “03 Another Hour”. Rhthymically, I emphasized the crucial harmonic turnaround by throwing in the shift from 16th notes to sextuples to triplets and back to 16ths which you hear in the clapping (and clanging of that vent again). Listening back to this huge section, I began to sketch out a rubato section that toggled between two roots and explored a short melodic pattern (depending on perspective, scale tones: 5 up to 1 up to 2 up to 3) in a variety of guises. It just got bigger and bigger, and the moment the drums fill between sections is a high moment in the entire record.

To create this version, we added numerous takes of Robby and Marlon clapping thru the B sections, and had the guitars play again over the prior take to thicken the melodic soup.
