I rode my bike this morning and the trails were beautiful. The weather has been cooling down and I'm noticing that some of leaves are just starting to change. I wrote Green Relief at the start of this year when winter was starting and I was itching for the warm Spring weather to come. Thinking about the weather swinging the other direction and the amount of precious daylight getting smaller and smaller, I listened back to it for the sake of nostalgia and I wanted to make a few changes. I took out the percussion and the piano, opting for smooth, purely electronic sounds to play up the element of "rich analog syrup" that I love in the older synths. Hope you enjoy the subtle changes.
I'm listening to this in the peak of foliage on a sunny day in coastal Connecticut. The "rich analog syrup" is morphing into maple syrup whilst the optimistic yet haunting chords suggest the arrival of All Hallow's Eve. Splendid!
ReplyDeleteThanks Neal. Glad you enjoyed it the second time!
