I created this track under heavy influence of classical minimalist composers. I intended to create a synthesis of the minimalist ideas on rhythm and diatonic constance with the current trends in electronic music creation.

This idea came to me as I joked around on the keyboard while talking to a friend face-timing from Chicago, which I have never been to. She walked around turning the camera towards different buildings, and I messed around with this looped drum beat and sounds on my Juno-D to create a "score" for what I was seeing. I liked it and fleshed it out to this track after the call. All sounds made by my Juno-D through pedals (Pitch Fork w/ expression, Memory Boy, TS-9) except the bass line done in Ableton.

A piece created with scoring for visual media in mind.
