What cocktail do you mix/shake up when you're about to sit down in front of you're multitracker and make some magic?

I go with a nice strong 4-parts bourbon to 1-part vermouth Manhattan, and usually I leave the cherry out, because usually I forgot to buy a jar of cherries, but I always put like 3 dashes of Angostura in it.

Dude I SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO knew this was a Helltime thread.*

It depends on what I'm trying to record: this Tom_Waits-ish thing I did w/ banging on shit that wasnt rdums and piano and scratchy vox = MAD MOONSHINE UGH. Another track w/ like 3stereo channels of atmospherics/drones + 1 track magnus chord organ* & vox = mad bongrips. This one song 'bout heartache & shit = no booze nor drugoos, just saditude.

*this is not a bad thing

Man, I sure do have a signature posting style, don't I? Nick, I might be drunk, but I've always considered you as a bro, cause you like Ween (that's you, right?), and we're both spare-room studio projectionists. Had I not a top secret security clearance to keep up for employment reasons, bongloads would probably be my creative lubricant of choice as well in certain situations.

MNUISC ES BUENA.

nickalicious, drunk, not high, listening to Ween (nickalicious), Saturday, 1 November 2003 08:21 (twenty years ago) link

I knew it was a helltime post too. The people I kind of thought were bros on ILM have let me down though. Not you guys, btw.

haha i love this question, lately a whiskey rocks has really been doing the trick. vodka for some reason gets me a little messier, which may or may not be in my head.

cocktail = Red Bull and the "multitracker" = Logic Pro but ok.

I'm not 100% sure what a multitracker is actually.
