small dogs dream big

based upon a field recording, I developed a musical sketch about the brief moment of a passing by plane. A small dog was a little upset and – possibly – immerged into his own world for a second, conducted by this intense experience.

the assignment: record a piece of music in which a passing siren blossoms into something else entirely.

Program note: 
“Stained light” is a part of an ongoing attempt in my work to uncover sensations and emotions from my own childhood. It can be both nostalgic and dark, as I try to remember how sensitive I felt to everything as a child – to the weather, to the energy of people around me, to the sounds of the world. In the piece, I try to create fragile spaces in which small details can affect the whole system, uncovering layers of sweetness or of darkness. There is something always under the surface, like a hidden song, half-remembered, heard from a distance.

Possibilities waiting to unfold_01

I made this song live in 2018 by recording a couple of tracks on the loopstation with guitar, reverb, and delay. shame not to be able to divide the tracks for a more accurate editing. but I am still very satisfied with the final result.
