Epilogue

The inspiration of this piece came from trying to depict Dementia as a mental illness musically. I find in a lot of Shoegaze music such as My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive and Sigur Ros (which heavily inspired this piece), while it is melodically and harmonically very beautiful, the distortion, reverb and various effects distort the beauty. This creates a fracturing quality. It is as if something beautiful that was once there is broken and fracutred, in this case the human mind with dementia.

Fractured (for two bowed Electric Guitars and Bass Guitar)

Intricacies of the Mind came about due to my interest in psychology and the human brain.
Intricacies of the Mind delves deep into the complex world of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. Around 750,000 people in the UK have this mental illness which causes them repeated unwanted thoughts or obsessions. Split into two movements, this piece aims to explore the two brain processes associated with this condition: Obsessions and Compulsions.

I'm not really sure what this is, other than a nice little piece I wrote in a day (well...okay, I might have done a bit of editing the next day). 

I was intrigued by the idea of three-bar phrases, as you can hear.  Also the idea of having lots of trumpets and French horns mixed into the electronics.  (Which are also electronic, I guess, but you get the idea.)

Something Higher

A collection of sounds and rhythms arranged in a way that might reflect the sorts of things you're liable to experience if you ever partake in some adventures beneath existence. There might be a story here, or there might not be. The answer is probably in the next number higher.

ABE #9: Mountaintop
0:00 - Clarity
0:04 - The Fifth Beneath
0:32 - Oxygen
0:50 - Higher the Clouds
1:18 - Higher Still the Clouds
1:46 - Distance
2:34 - Echoes Deeper
3:02 - Echoes Clearer
3:19 - Brighter the Sky

The remaining Adventures Beneath Existence will be posted to my YouTube channel (mostly for reasons of space). They can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-YHGMYfUuktZweuw0TlOWXLvZFX09udT
