Gaetano Fiorin - Mist (naviarhaiku 464)

" Record a piece of music that does change keys"

This one I'm sharing is a track I've been working on since July 2022, eventually a week ago I decided to drop this take and start all over with a solo piano version. It has some key changes, not really sections but there's a permanent "unstable key" feel throughout.

Piano
Classical guitar
Drums (brushes)
Acoustic bass guitar
Wine glasses (background sequence)
Celesta (from sample library)
Synth pad
Key changes go like this:
1st bar E minor 
4th bar A minor
5th bar F# minor
8th bar B minor
9th bar G major
and then back to E minor for the coda.
All repeated twice in this version, with an extended coda.

“Trudge” alludes to the weird disconnected-yet-superconnected reality that envelopes us all day, every day. We wade through a mire of strangely polished ‘normal’ on every social medium we consume, and then can’t work out why we feel so substandard all the time. We voraciously seek the positive feedback that is designed to suck us in and keep us coming back for more. We scroll, and scroll, and scroll, and scroll. What will it take for us to stop and look up? Or will we all slowly fall into the void?

Lyrics

This is the future baby
Trudge along ahead
Lead in my footsteps baby
Follow in my stead

Oh I’m a child of my time
I live out loud
And you call my name but I can’t hear you
I’m standing alone in the crowd

Friends on my left babe
Friends on my right
They like what I’m doing
But they can’t help me tonight

Oh I’m a child of my time
I live out loud
And you call my name but I can’t hear you
Standing alone

I feel like nobody today
Faceless, insignificant, in the way
In the way
In the way

Yeah I’m a child of my time
I live out loud
And you call my name but I can’t hear you
I’m standing alone in the crowd

We’re so together
But inside we’re so alone
Got all the answers babe
But still just don’t really know
We don’t really know, no

Yeah I’m a child of my time
I live out loud
And you call my name but I can’t hear you
Standing alone
I’m a child of my time
I live out loud
And you call my name but I can’t hear you
I’m standing alone in the crowd
