I was wandering around Glasgow at 6am in a haze a few weeks ago and the idea for this song came to me.

"the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own—populated with their own ambitions, friends, routines, worries and inherited craziness—an epic story that continues invisibly around you like an anthill sprawling deep underground, with elaborate passageways to thousands of other lives that you’ll never know existed, in which you might appear only once, as an extra sipping coffee in the background, as a blur of traffic passing on the highway, as a lighted window at dusk."

"Icarus" is my interpretation of what it would sound and feel like if I were slowly flying towards the sun.

Icarus

Horizon

Streets of Datong

A slighlty Eastern tinged instrumental guitar piece that I wrote for the special Winter Solstice themed "The Longest Night" compilation on https://soundcloud.com/bricolage-collective net label. "Yaldā" is the Iranian term for the solstice, where families and friends come together to eat, drink and read poetry.

Tomorrow I release my "Arboreal" EP through the https://soundcloud.com/bricolage-collective net label.  It's ambient, tribal, soundscape and techno flavoured. The EP has been over 2 years in the works and I originally started creating the sounds and atmospheres for the tracks in January 2014 and had completed 2 full tracks and other sections by the end of summer of that year.  For various reasons, the music went on hold until the start of this year when I began working on finalizing the music.

'Lepidoptera' is one of the first tracks I completed for the EP.

I enjoyed hearing this melody on soundcloud and thought to try it out on my accordion.  I had the great good fortune to interest my soundcloud friends Zach and Jore in the tune as well.   Jore added our tracks together to come up with this wonderful version.

Anyway, back to the video at hand. I haven't been posting a lot lately which is due to the score to a small indie-video game I'm working on right now. It's an entry to the itch.io game-off and we had a month to start and finish a game. Besides work, the game and whatever else one has to do I've sadly neglected my social media outlets. While warming up to record some stuff for the game yesterday I made did this little improvisation that I thought would be fitting to the latest improvs.

I've been using the Vigier Shawn Lane Excalibur on this one, going into the 'When the sun explodes' by Beautiful Noise Effects into the BLuguitar Amp1 which goes into the Bluguitar Blubox which then goes straight to the mixer. 

I've got a Mooer A7 in the FX Loop, as well as a 'Shallow Water' by Fairfield Circuitry (prominently featured on the loop) and the Boss DD-20 for the loop

Let me know what you think!

Drifting in the audio void.  Somewhere between the chaos and the calm.
