Q: why, in alphabet shuffle, do you omit the F when you use the funky Bb-7 chord 15 seconds in? it sounds gnarly but i'm just wondering what drives your decisions to leave tones out
A: in that case, including the F note would have made it too gnarly. the gnarliness that is there already comes from the Bb in the bass, but the F note would have made it slightly too extreme and possibly relocated it to a more obscure section of the record store
