You might find that the piano playing at the beginning seems a little out of tune - that’s because I’m
not using the standard western scale known as equal temperament. I’ve actually tuned the piano in
line with the alp horn, the national musical instrument of Switzerland. It’s a really long (like, several
metre-long) horn with no holes in the sides so it actually plays in a natural harmonic overtone series,
so I think it gives the piano a beautiful clear resonance as well as (to western ears) a sort of gentle
wooziness. The rhythmic elements of the track are inspired pretty much directly by the original, just
translated into a quicker tempo with some added sound design. I’m really interested to hear what

people think!

Wordcolour - Bluster (Djrum Remix)

Watermark went through loads of different incarnations before it ended up how it did on the vinyl release in 2012. I was never happy with it.

The vocals were there as a place holder, until i found something I could use to fill the space.

This is a very rough early version with way too much reverb, badly EQed beat and an abrupt end. So apologies for that, but I thought people might find it interesting.

Watermark (early demo version from 2010)

There's a glitch on Mary Anne's Mixcloud upload, so I thought I'd put this up on here... good quality, and no extra censoring.

Grandbrothers - Prologue(Djrum remix)

The full track is over 9 mins long, so here's 2 clips of different sections of the piece. 

The Darkest Hour Is Just Before Dawn (Undercoat pt.2) clips* - 2nd Drop Records

These tracks are out-takes from my first alum Seven Lies. Those familiar with my music will know that I love a coda. A coda is a passage at the end of a piece of music that brings it to a conclusion. I often use a coda as a way of framing the piece in a slightly different context than it would otherwise end. Like a musical aftertaste. When I was working on Seven Lies I made codas for several tracks but I was never completely happy with these two so they didn't make it on to the album.

As I work on my second album I have been looking back at the process I went through for my first alum and remembered these outtakes. They're not so bad after all. Perhaps they are worth airing to the world. I hope you enjoy them, or at least find them an interesting insight into the workings behind the music.

‘Waters Rising’ is a collaboration with vocalist Lola Empire and was originally written around a piano sketch that was sent back and forth between the two artists until it became the fully realised song you hear now.  

"I really hadn't expected love to be a theme in the album, but I was chatting with Lola and she told me how she'd fallen in love. I sent her the initial sketch for this and told her i didn't think love was an appropriate subject for it. but she came out with this. 
'love is dark' she said."

Vinyl and digital releases coming soon on Second Drop records. Really pleased with this one. Just used the vocal from the original version. A little more downtempo than most of my stuff, but just had to do what it took to do that amazing voice justice.
