    Gulf is a VideoSong, a new medium with 2 rules:
    1. What you see is what you hear (no lip-syncing for instruments or voice).
    2. If you hear it, at some point you see it (no hidden sounds).
    By the way, the bullet time effect is achieved by filming and recording the guitar track 8 times in an arc, then switching between the angles at about 2-3 frames per second. All of the layers are still in the audio mix, so it still follows all the VideoSong rules.

    Gulf, by Jack Conte
    Lyrics:
    Stay still, soldier. Follow orders. Load up, lie low, and pray for water. I watch us come undone. I watch us come undone. Live for morning and dirty magazines. I took it all the way. I took it all the way.

    You know what's awesome? That people still discover him. This comment is two months old, the video is over 2 years. This means this is not some rare gem that some people found and then forgotten, but a gem that people keep finding over and over again. So he lives.

    He plays the drums, the piano, the guitar, the accordion, and probably some more instruments I've failed to mention. He's got an amazing voice, and knows how to edit extremely well. No, he's not guy that can only appear in your dreams, he's the guy who's above the skill level that we like to call Insanely Talented...he's Jack Conte!

      I'm also playing this a lot. This is in my list of music that should be played with the volume knob turned up to eleven! And the subwoofer to maximum :)
      This song and the "Pedals" also by Jack, should never be played at a low volume!

    It's crazy how I ran into you in Beverly Hills 2 1/2 years ago during a neighborhood flood. I never would have imagined running into you, randomly picking you up to drop you off on dry land. Crazy how small this world gets through time. I still come back to listen to this track, to this day it stands as an amazing piece of art Jack!

      Jack Conte Hey Jack, any plans to return to this sort of music? Not necessarily in the VideoSong format, just this style of poetic instrumental stuff? I really miss looking forward to the next VS album, but it looks like you're too focused on Patreon for this style to make a comeback. Let me know, your older music is a huge inspiration for me, but the CONTE stuff just... wasn't my thing. Hope you understand! Get back to me!

      @caretaker9 4 года назад +1

    From the moment I heard Gulf 10 years ago, I recognized it as a stroke of pure brilliance. The fact that it has stood out in my mind enough to tell many people about it over the years - I listen to it now and nothing has changed. I know you are very busy with other projects but please Jack, do some more solos. I check your channel every so often & when I see your last posting was 3...4...5...6 years ago, it makes me sad. Only because you truly rock!
