Naviar Broadcast #377 – Pulling light – Wednesday 23rd July 2025

Prayer

This track came about over a period of time, adding little riffs of piano and finally, Simon creating an electronic 'ground'. It's a bit of a collage. I wondered if it was going to work at all. Now, I like it.

Frontier

Sillage 
(SEE-yahz)
(n.) The lingering sense of someone's presence, like a perfume left in a room, evoking memory and absence.
