sounds demanding!

Well the best laid plans....

I have very clear ideas on how I want Normal to sound, aurally. Now I've had some musical doodles kicking around for ages, but I decided today that I really wanted to get them nailed, so it was one tick in the job done box. I thought it was going to be easy; after all I had all my ideas already didn't I- so it was be just a case of finalising the mixes and the edits. Easy.

Wrong.

There's always a problem child, and I think I've just found it. You see I have very clear cut ideas on how sound design should be done, and my first guiding principle is always stick to the same source; the same soundtrack, CD, whatever. Except that I have one particular "need" that I can't seem to find in my desired source; any ideas that I find are too long (and can't be edited without compromising the structure of the music), have something going on that doesn't sound right (like a piece of vocal or backing) or just doesn't sound right! Could be worse I suppose; I could be using some old discos hits.....
