The musical intent of "Columbia" is to inspire the listener to feel removed from their daily patterns and habits, reuniting them with the surroundings that they would have otherwise forgotten to see and hear.

Prelude To Columbia - Jake Chudnow

The wonderfully warm and punchy analog synth on this track is a Juno 6. I've been sleeping less and making more ever since I set it up next to my bed. As far as things I love go, it's up there with my mom...

This is still a work in progress - not mixed/mastered and want to get some more analog sounds into the mix. Uploading now though because I've had a "handful" of requests :) Let me know what you think it needs.

The sounds in the beginning and throughout are the sound hydrogen makes as created and explained by Henry from Minute Physics here: http://youtu.be/qyi5SvPlMXc

Most synth sounds are the Juno 6, some soft synths used, and the drums are layered but the most present layer is a Roland 707.

Created this one in my bedroom while procrastinating rehearsal for a live set.

There are two images/memories in my head when I listen to and was making this song:

1. A documentary on assisted dying by Terry Pratchett: http://youtu.be/slZnfC-V1SY

2. Driving through the Mojave desert in Joshua Tree

Lions Tigers and Apes

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.
