White Rabbit [Jefferson Airplane cover|remold + Video Manipulation]



*All sounds made from analog synthesizer/drum machine, feedback loop, looper/effects processor, noises, and human voice. Recorded using digital multitrack recorder, arranged and mixdown using DAW

- additional sampled voice by Alice and Caterpillar from Alice and Wonderland animation.

- the visuals is a video bending that we made (Terence Mckenna speech - Shamans Among the Machines), original clip not ours.

Our second attempt to cover a song, this time by the great Ms. Grace Slick! And yes we sing, pardon for insisting ;) we just like the song and how she sang it and wrote the lyrics, as they all say - DOPE! But we first encounter this song while watching Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas starring Mr. Johnny Depp many years ago... and White Rabbit is a good ost for this movie.

Again the recording and vocals is not that good but we really enjoy the process so we hope you enjoy it too, thank you so much for viewing... :)

Lyrics -

Caterpillar: Why? (several times)

One pill makes you larger, one pill makes you small

And the ones that mother gives you don't do anything at all

Go Ask Alice! 

When she's ten feet tall...

(Alice coughing)

And if you go chasing rabbits, and you know you're going to fall

Tell 'em a hookah-smoking caterpillar has given you the call

Call Alice... 

When she was just small...

(Alice coughing)

When the men on the chessboard get up and tell you where to go

And you just have some kind of mushroom

And your mind is moving slow

Go Ask Alice, i think she'll know!

When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead

And the White Knight's talking backwards

And the Red Queen's off with her head

Remember what the Doormouse said...

Feed you head... (several times)

(Alice coughing)

Caterpillar: By the way, I have a few more helpful hints. One side will make you grow taller... 

Alice: One side of what? 

Caterpillar: ...and the other side will make you grow shorter. 

Alice: The other side of what? 

Caterpillar: THE MUSHROOM, OF COURSE! 

(Alice continue to cough)
