Vespertine

Vespertine is yet another song I improvised at an impromptu writing session at the Sound Thought recording studio. I laid down the track fairly fast and then took it home so I write a proper melody. After coming up with and layering a 4-part synthesizer hook, I challenged Inohs Sivad to perform it vocally. When I returned to the studio a few days later, I was pleasantly surprised with what I heard; She'd breathed a life into part(s) I hadn't expected to heard.

  As I said, I did all of the playing/programming on this track while Shoni did the vocals. As it stands, it's an interlude for my debut album but it's also in the running (with 3 other interludes) to be turned into a full length song for the CD.

Autobahn

Autobahn is a song of mine that's been floating around for a while, the late '90's/early 00's or so. The influences are fairly straightforward (see if you can guess!).

 Once again, I played all of the basses on this track (Demetrius Nabors played keys). As it stands, it's an interlude for my debut album but it's also in the running (with 3 other interludes) to be turned into a full length song for the CD.

First Impressions

The origin behind First Impressions is actually pretty simple: A friend asked me to write a song for them. This was December 2009/January 2010. I picked up my newly acquired fretless bass and basically wrote this in about 5 minutes or so. The modulations are loosely inspired by a Pat Metheny tune but that wasn't a conscious decision. Once again, I played and programmed all of the instruments on this track. As it stands, it's an interlude for my debut album but it's also in the running (with 3 other interludes) to be turned into a full length song for the CD.
