it does sound like a lonely night but still very calming

This is great, and i love the backstory too!

This reminds me of the long lost day my mom took me to the desert. We broke into a hotel pool and floated around for a long time. It was the first time I tasted Cactus Cooler. Best. Day. Ever.

No great meanings or messages with this piece - it just had a bit of a Japanese feel to me so I thought Japanese Garden was a good title!
I think the combination of the high zingy octave effect and the scale I used gave it an Oriental feel. Also there's never a Haruki Murakami book far away from me at any given time!

Japanese Garden

For some reason I always think about the person in this image when I think about this song. I used to see him at the same time each night - around 3am - as he walked towards the train station in Springwood. He had a really big limp and watching him walk was a hard thing to do (although of course how hard was it for him to actually walk like this each night??). I was driving a delivery van at the time and I would often pass him along the main street as I headed towards my next delivery which was maybe 2 or three hundred metres further down the street. Quite often I would have finished my delivery - unloading the van and locking up the place I was delivering to - by the time this guy caught up to me again, so maybe 10 minutes had passed for this stoic looking person to travel that short distance. I often wondered if I should have offered him a lift each night when I passed him (I should note I often didn't actually have room for him in the front seat!) but how would he have reacted to that even if I could have? Grateful? Offended? Ashamed? Perhaps he was just used to carrying that cross he bore each night?

Most of this piece was recorded in 2016 but I abandoned it until I decided to clean my computer files up recently. I added the vocals and a few horn samples to "finish" it off.
It's "sister" piece which takes the same bass loops, speeds them up and takes it all to a very different place can be listened to here:

The original spoken word sample is by "wjoojoo" and can be found here:

Lyrics:

A crooked moon has risen from your heart
Grinning through a midnight so unkind
I drag my heels down this sadly silent hill
alone to leave this crying soul behind

Gonna find me a graveyard
Gonna bury my head and rest 
‘neath a weathered tombstone unnamed
May the hell you gave me
limp back to your door
A huge hungry demon enraged

Do you hear me laughing, girl?
Laughing as I beg for death
Yeah, I know you’re moaning, girl
I can smell your sad harlot breath

Oh, soon you’ll miss me
Oh, soon you’ll miss me,
but I’ll be bones in the ground

Gonna Find Me A Graveyard

This is my on again / off again solo project composing music based (no pun intended 😜) around the bass.
My main musical "job" is being one half of an indie pop duo called Cat Came Back.
