Mellifluosity is not a word that's used much, largely because I just invented it. Mellifluous is when something is not only melodious but smooth as buttah, baby. Therefore, the mellifluosity of a thing is how much capacity it has to be mellifluous. Something high in mellifluosity would be blowing out melodies and rainbows in every direction and anything low in mellifluosity ... would go to L.A.
No additional progress on the Silas TechnoHypnoGroove Christmas Song due to a bangin', blastin', punch you in the damn face headache ... which I think is a fair excuse for slackness.
It's an intriguing exercise for me as this one is for shaking up the percussion and getting some major groove-o-matic as you can't get coolness out of simple beats. Plus, women won't want to make babies with you. Completely pointless.
Miles Davis once said, "all synthesizers are programmed white."
I doubt he would say that today largely because he's, well, dead but also because the expressiveness of synth has gone light years from the Walter Carlos days.
(Lighten up, please, trans-people. He was Walter Carlos then and she's Wendy Carlos now. Either way, my ass is kicked on playing a synth.)
As synthesizers may or may not be programmed white but drum machines are definitely programmed by demons who seek to sap your soul of motivation such that they may more easily inject their demonic influence and you will become someone forever obsessed with trying to get Filipinos to stop burying chicken eggs.
(Ed: what does all this have to do with mellifluosity?)
Because it don't mean a thing if it don't got that swing.
