II Trophozoite - Phagocytosis

This is pretty "out there," but if you have a tolerance for bizarre music, please check out my new band:

That's me on guitar and also on bass.  Both instruments are refretted so that I can play 19 notes per octave in lieu of the usual twelve.
The drums were auto-generated by a program I cobbled together with Free PASCAL/Allegro to detect up and down beats from the raw bass audio and a tempo map, a small library of beats I programmed in MIDI using Microsoft Session (a very old PC program for Windows 3.1), and then using MT Power Kit and Studio One to humanize and convert into audio.
The "vocalist" is my wife's pet parrot, a 1.5 pound scrappy little mealy amazon, named Luna.



I noticed that the bird would always react to me playing guitar, especially when I would play anything metal-sounding, sometimes in free form and sometimes keeping perfect time with me, occasionally mimicking me, so I recorded some new riffs, played them for her a couple times, and then put a microphone in front of her.

I hope you enjoy.  Either way, please let me know what you think.

Thanks!  I'm really glad you gave it a spin!

I'm trying to wrap up mixing all by myself, but it's a slow process.

But here's another very rough mix:
