about
This is a re-release of the first song I released under the name Alice Mary 7 years ago. I wanted to revamp the track with a new mix and master using my 2021 skills to pump up my 2014 ideas.
For a long time the song was called Track 3 because it was the third song I produced using autoharp samples. I bought an autoharp and laboriously tuned every one of the 32 strings to the notes of one chord in order to record it and sample it, then I did this 24 times to get all of the major and minor chords.
I loved stretching and squashing and looping and reversing these because 1) I wasn't hearing anyone else doing this at the time 2) I enjoy taking sounds and manipulating them until they sound like something completely different.
The song isn't about anything - its just me messing around with noises, but the title 'Everything To Everyone' refers to the fallacy of trying to be everything to everyone, whether in life or in music. Luckily I feel like I'm further away from this drive now than I was in 2014.
