Notes from Michael “Binky” written and arranged by Michael League transcribed by Chris McQueen recorded on groundUP, GroundUP Music / Ropeadope Records 2012 “Binky” was actually the first of the batch of new songs set to be recorded on groundUP. I think it came from the Afrobeat craze that had been dominating my current hometown of Brooklyn, New York (the working title was “Afropup”). Everyone that was cool had an Afrobeat band. I was not cool. I figured that the least I could do was write an Afrobeat song, and “Binky” was my attempt at it. As is normally the case with compositional intentions, I got distracted and the song drifted out of the desired direction into some strange other realm. We rehearsed it for the first time at Nate’s tiny apartment in Denton, Texas, during a tour in May of 2011. It was MUCH faster, and listening back to it now, feels a little more Afrobeatish that way. One of the most interesting things about the recording of this song on “groundUP” is Nate, Marcelo, and Keita’s very intricate and wellthoughtout percussion parts. They interact with the bass line in an integral way… sliding them over even by an eighth or quarter note affects the groove massively. If you know Nate, you know how much he thinks about this stuff. Similar to the structure of the song “Flood” on Tell Your Friends, the hiphopish outro to “Binky” is a metric permutation of previously stated musical material. I know that sounds really nerdy, but I can’t think of any other way to say it. Basically, the chords are the almost the same as the previous section (letters R & S). The section is still technically in 3/4, despite the fact that the band is playing with a 4/4 feel. To get REALLY nerdy, do this. Take the dotted quarter note of the original feel (in 3/4) and isolate it. This becomes the new quarter note of your 4/4 feel. In fact, everyone can play the written parts identically and if only the drums/percussion switch between 3/4 and 4/4 grooves, everything still locks in. Try it. It’s pretty crazy. But just like “Flood,” no one should know (or care) that the outro uses previously stated harmonic material in a metrically relatedbutpermutated manner. They should just want to shake their butts. So if you play everything absolutely correctly and nobody in the audience is moving, the band is missing the point. As for the title, we used “Afropup” for a while (I couldn’t think of anything that made sense). Normally, song titles reveal themselves to me in a natural way that relates deeply to the emotion or imagery that I’m trying to convey musically. In this case, I

Notes  from  Michael    “Binky”  written  and  arranged  by  Michael  League  transcribed  by  Chris  McQueen  recorded  on  groundUP,  GroundUP  Music  /  Ropeadope  Records  2012  

 “Binky”  was  actually  the  first  of  the  batch  of  new  songs  set  to  be  recorded  on  groundUP.  I  think  it  came  from  the  Afro-­‐beat  craze  that  had  been  dominating  my  current  hometown  of  Brooklyn,  New  York  (the  working  title  was  “Afropup”).  Everyone  that  was  cool  had  an  Afro-­‐beat  band.  I  was  not  cool.  I  figured  that  the  least  I  could  do  was  write  an  Afro-­‐beat  song,  and  “Binky”  was  my  attempt  at  it.  As  is  normally  the  case  with  compositional  intentions,  I  got  distracted  and  the  song  drifted  out  of  the  desired  direction  into  some  strange  other  realm.    We  rehearsed  it  for  the  first  time  at  Nate’s  tiny  apartment  in  Denton,  Texas,  during  a  tour  in  May  of  2011.  It  was  MUCH  faster,  and  listening  back  to  it  now,  feels  a  little  more  Afro-­‐beatish  that  way.    One  of  the  most  interesting  things  about  the  recording  of  this  song  on  “groundUP”  is  Nate,  Marcelo,  and  Keita’s  very  intricate  and  well-­‐thought-­‐out  percussion  parts.  They  interact  with  the  bass  line  in  an  integral  way…  sliding  them  over  even  by  an  eighth  or  quarter  note  affects  the  groove  massively.  If  you  know  Nate,  you  know  how  much  he  thinks  about  this  stuff.    Similar  to  the  structure  of  the  song  “Flood”  on  Tell  Your  Friends,  the  hip-­‐hop-­‐ish  outro  to  “Binky”  is  a  metric  permutation  of  previously  stated  musical  material.  I  know  that  sounds  really  nerdy,  but  I  can’t  think  of  any  other  way  to  say  it.  Basically,  the  chords  are  the  almost  the  same  as  the  previous  section  (letters  R  &  S).  The  section  is  still  technically  in  3/4,  despite  the  fact  that  the  band  is  playing  with  a  4/4  feel.  To  get  REALLY  nerdy,  do  this.  Take  the  dotted  quarter  note  of  the  original  feel  (in  3/4)  and  isolate  it.  This  becomes  the  new  quarter  note  of  your  4/4  feel.  In  fact,  everyone  can  play  the  written  parts  identically  and  if  only  the  drums/percussion  switch  between  3/4  and  4/4  grooves,  everything  still  locks  in.  Try  it.  It’s  pretty  crazy.    But  just  like  “Flood,”  no  one  should  know  (or  care)  that  the  outro  uses  previously  stated  harmonic  material  in  a  metrically  related-­‐but-­‐permutated  manner.  They  should  just  want  to  shake  their  butts.  So  if  you  play  everything  absolutely  correctly  and  nobody  in  the  audience  is  moving,  the  band  is  missing  the  point.    As  for  the  title,  we  used  “Afropup”  for  a  while  (I  couldn’t  think  of  anything  that  made  sense).  Normally,  song  titles  reveal  themselves  to  me  in  a  natural  way  that  relates  deeply  to  the  emotion  or  imagery  that  I’m  trying  to  convey  musically.  In  this  case,  I

went  months  of  playing  it  with  no  luck.  I  got  desperate  one  night  in  Birmingham  (Alabama,  not  UK)  and  asked  people  to  scribble  out  song  titles  on  napkins  at  the  conclusion  of  the  tune.  There  were  some  pretty  funny  suggestions,  and  there  was  “Binky.”  It  just  sounded  right.  Sometimes  you  have  to  go  with  your  gut.    Off-­‐the-­‐page  stuff  to  try:  

1) Play  the  whole  thing  at  a  much  faster  tempo.  2) Change  the  feel  of  the  first  A  section  to  anything  you  want.  The  melody  is  

very  versatile  and  sits  well  on  top  of  loads  of  different  grooves.  3) Change  the  harmony  for  the  ramp-­‐up  (letters  R  and  S),  or  keep  it  static  

(stay  on  C#m)  and  then  revert  to  the  original  chords  after  building  tension  for  a  while.  

4) Try  a  slow,  half-­‐timish  groove  over  section  S  before  building  up  5) Abandon  the  bass  line  on  the  sax  solo  and  just  groove  in  C#.  It  can  get  

really  open  here.  6) On  the  groove  section  at  the  end  of  the  tune  (letter  U),  experiment  with  

pulling  each  part  in  and  out,  hip-­‐hop-­‐production-­‐style.  It  works  nicely.  7) On  that  same  section,  try  having  the  drums  play  a  more  3/4-­‐based  

groove.
