Pressed Pennies // Video in link description

Inspired both by one of my friends and by the new game in the Armored Core franchise, I decided to make a more ambient project. If I could have made a soundtrack for AC6, it would have probably sounded like this.

I really wanted to make the project way longer with at least 15 tracks, but I was too saturated in other projects. I'm not the most patient person. So, I decided that those tracks need to get heard now. 

Between the preparation for 2 live shows, the writing of my first book, the wedding planification. I don't have the energy to continue this project to its full extent. I might just make another 8 tracks in the same theme later. Who knows.

Hopefully you like it.

Context:

Asleep, dreaming, on a wintry night in 2011, bundled up in the bed of my Brooklyn apartment.

That's when and where I made this song. I remembered the soundtrack to my dream so vividly that when I woke up in the middle of the night, I got out of bed to recreate what was to become the beginnings of "Carlin Dream." It makes me wonder what buried corner of consciousness that melody came from, and why these sort of things come to people while they sleep. This isn't the first time I've dreamed of a melody and turned it into a song later.  I guess it's not totally crazy that we can dream music though: where do melodies come from while we're awake anyway? I'd bet it's the same place. 

As for this piece, I recently stumbled across the original music files and decided to build on that 3am stream of consciousness to finish it here, one year later.
