I bought an oud in Istanbul, took it back to my hotel room, recorded the first piece that came to mind.

Bosphorus (2008)

An excerpt from the first session where @flpvsk and I sat down with two loop stations.

I had a light overdrive, a delay pedal (that Andrey made!), and an E-Bow on my guitar, 150ml of good Ethiopian coffee and a tab of acid in my bloodstream. The only thing we said before starting was “C#m, sparse”.

I can’t say enough good things about Andrey’s bass playing here — the tone, the restraint and sensitivity, so beautiful 🤩

My friend Francesco Beccaro sent me a driving bass line over a North African Gnawa-style drum loop, which I've re-worked with new drums, synth lines, and a Fripp-esque Sound Stone (think EBow) guitar part.

Playing around with too many layers, too much energy. Mainly working on drum programming to capture the style of some of my favorite rock players.
