Live synth improvisation on top of a field recording of the London millennium bridge. The field recording made with a contact microphone sounds like what you'd hear if you pressed your ears against the steel cables that hold up the millennium bridge on a rainy day. As it happens, the bridge sings an eternal B note, making a perfect drone on which to improvise. The public domain field recording of the bridge by Peter Cusack can be found here: aporee.org/maps/work/details.html?sndid=65068
The synth is a Roland integra-7 with drone support from an SN synth "soft pad 4" (with an additional tempo synced 8 beat long sinusoidal LFO modulating pitch +1, filter depth +33, amp depth +63, pan depth +7) and melody from a "synth brs/JupiterHorns" patch.
The nonsensical title of the piece is a tongue-in-cheek reference to social media's click-bait titles.
