Written from scratch circa 2007 in FL Studio with some antiquated VST plugins.  An attempt to capture hope/anxiety/anticipation/relief in a minimal beatscape.

Hoping

An early DNB track, circa 2000.  I know why the caged bird sings.

Observatory

Circa 2004.  Living in Back Bay Boston, learning the basics of electronic composition, hence:  Bay 6.  I tend to make a completely fleshed out chunk of a track and then struggle to extend it into a complete tune.  For this one, I just introduced each layer one at a time and then messed around with the order. 

The orchestral synth (pads?) sounds that come in later are a combination of the same sample at different pitches and lengths.  Played in unison, they produce a haunting, metamorphic chord.

Bay 6

8/15/2000  FL Studio.  Pissed off in a rainstorm.

Puddles

Paths

10/07/2000

A Casio keyboard, the kind you'd find at every garage sale.  I'm having difficulty recalling where I got it from or where it went.  This is what I did with it though.  This is Chirish Jump-Up.

Reclaimed

Circa 2004 FL Studio.  Trying to program a luscious rolling break with a few twists.   Focusing primarily on drums and bass.  Two very delicious things.
