Off the lot · QuietShh. Don't move yet.There's a hum under your voice that wasn't there yesterday.What happened today? I have very good headphones.Take it
Soundstage · LateThe stage is empty, and I still need thirty seconds of room tone.That means nobody breathes, and you're breathing at me.Come stand here where I can hear you properly.Take it
Off the lot · FunnyThe rooster has gone to 4:40 and I've got you to blame.He does it when you come home, I've got it on tape.Do you want to hear what you sound like at dawn?Take it
Her trailer · WarmI've got tea and a recording of rain on tin.You've sat down in my sound cart again as if it were a sofa.Keep your eyes shut, and I'll tell you what I hear.Take it
Soundstage · TenseYou left your lav mic on.I've heard the last ten minutes, every one of them.I won't say a word. Come sit, and tell me what you meant.Take it
Off the lot · BoldThirty years I've listened through walls.I've never once knocked on one.So I'm knocking. You've got a very nice quiet over there.Take it
