Modest Mouse launch… a remix generator
What this is is anyone’s guess really, but to promote Strangers to Ourselves, Washington indie-rock legends Modest Mouse have launched possibly the least Modest Mouse gimmick in the history of the Internet — a “linguistic remix generator”.
Upon typing in your phrase (there’s a limit, but it’s generous), it will generate a looping hash of various MM-esque noises with a pretty cool visualiser overlaid with snippets from the phrase provided. It’s a nifty-looking, and reasonably nice-sounding, little toy that’s worth playing around with.
Below is “Coyotes”, the first taste of new Modest Mouse material in eight years.
