Some astrologers say the Age of Aquarius actually began in 2012. That’s because they believe the star Regulus in the constellation Leo the Lion marked the ancient border between the constellations Leo and Cancer. This star moved to within 30 degrees of the September equinox point in 2012, meaning that Regulus left the sign Leo to enter the sign Virgo in that year. Presuming equal-sized constellations in antiquity, that places the border of the constellations Pisces and Aquarius at 150 degrees west of Regulus, or at the March equinox point. By this reckoning, the Age of Aquarius started in 2012.

Ages (Aquarius)

Hard Working Woman

Quiet storm improvised guitar and keys, owing a lot to In A Silent Way, before cowbells smash the door down.

In a quiet wait

I had a nice recording of an FM radio falling out of tune recorded outside on a Autumn morning with the rain failing off a tent. Its quite evocative so I took this and added some background music. I sent this recording into various channels and effects and with some nice synth sounds it felt like the classic era Aphex Twin Selected Ambient Works sound. So added some low key beats chugging away in a very 90s ambient house sort of way! 

The haiku and the sounds match in my mind.. the synths are the summer and the rainbows fading and the beats are the years progress and the hiss and static and rain are the damp days of Autumn.

Damp days of Autumn
