03 My Babe

So – here’s the new track from Slipway Strangers. This one has an interesting back story. Last summer we were commissioned to write a series of improvised pieces for a Dublin Internet radio station (Radio Fare here http://listen.dublindigitalradio.com) 
We worked steadily for a couple of hours and started goofing off. I went into the next room and put Jordan de la Sierra’s rather wonderful ‘Song of Rose’ on my little amp. The recorded was accidently live mixed into our improvisation - and works beautifully even though we say so oursleves!The Song of the Rose is now regarded as one of the first and best ‘New Age’ records.
Allow yourself to drift in and out of hearing but noticing what the piece is doing at different moments. It sort of evolves by itself. We hope you like it.
Many thanks to Jordan de la Sierra for the use of his music 
