nightmare proxy radio
This is my first attempt at palindromic music, so the first song is the actual song and the second is the song backwards, and hopefully they should be similar.

there are obvious practical difficulties when attempting to create a truly palindromic sound, but one thing I could be sure of was chord progression. Of course there are some elements I added in after I went through the rigorous process of gluing crap together and basically folding it in half on itself so-to-speak.
For instance, after I ‘folded this in half on itself’ (something I’m just not going to get into, and a process I can’t actually fully remember to be honest) I added in a little beat into the third movement, or in other words, the movement entitled ‘radio.’ (In the first movement entitled ‘nightmare’ I sing about proxy radio. I don’t get it either but for some reason, it must be that way.) So its not strictly truly a palindromic sound, but just listen to the ‘radio’ movement at the end of each and imagine the first one without the beat, and I’d say its pretty close.
To top it off, I accidentally recorded a palindromic sound that occurs in ‘the wild’: train sounds. You can catch it near both the beginnings and ends of both versions, naturally.
