Composer's Blog
I was so busy updating the blog today that I nearly forgot to post today’s track. It’s another free
improvisation, so if that’s not your thing look away now. As I mentioned before, I find this process very
liberating and it’s what tends to generate most of my composition ideas. What it also does is allows me to
explore textures, rhythms, motifs and atmospheres unencumbered by the rigors of formal music. I
thoroughly recommend it as an exercise and urge that you try to do this unselfconsciously and without
judgement. Just see what happens and enjoy the experience? or not.
I’ve added some long and strange reverb, just to add a little extra ambience and – possibly - cohesion.
Again, if you don’t try these things you’ll never know their effect. Who knows: someone may even like it.
