'
Let's Take The Fresh Step Together', the first track of the
post-rock band
Trans Am's 2001 album;
Red Line is most of The Microsoft Sound(barring the two tones at the end),
time stretched to 51 seconds. Listening to it in this manner gives one a good insight as to the subtle intricacies present in the song. For instance, the sound's pitch goes up in steps, and not in a smooth wave.
Trans Am are
anti-Microsoft-ites, and this song is one of the examples. Others on the album include song titles like '
Don't Bundle Me', and '
Where Do You Want To Fuck Today?'
