INSIDE SATIE is one of the first albums I recorded in Japan shortly after moving here in 1985. In three days I improvised on several of my favourite Satie themes. Mostly I played piano as well as the rich, analog-sounding Yamaha GS-1 (precursor of the DX-7), and sometimes used long tape delays to build layers of sound. All the pieces were recorded in single takes - no overdubs (no time!). Three original pieces were added as bonus tracks on the 1998 CD reissue.

Wrist

This is a 4:22 edit of the 12:08 track from the 1984 album with the same title.

My brother and I visited Klaus Schulze, staying at his home studio in Germany, in the wizard's workshop in the woods in winter. The walls were lined with patch-cabled analog synths. It was kind of magical trying to draw out from him our favorite kinds of Klaus spaces.  

Back in NYC (where we were both living at the time) I wrote the TSB parts over a long spacey track called "Communiqué". I was kind of shocked that it had those parts in it, waiting to be found! Then in a NYC studio Mike and Will Lee locked in the groove, Hiram Bullock added a smooth chord part, and I played all the guitar melodies and overlaid the Wurly piano and some synth counter-melodies.

I'll always remember sitting right next to Will Lee while he laid down that groove with Mike, and the intensity of their concentration. It was deep, like a force field!

A while later, back in San Francisco at Stephen Hill's Hearts of Space studio, we rearranged TSB, cutting up the tape and moving the sections around. (no ProTools then!) Mike recently created this edit.

Daughter - Youth

OK This is a long one, but is quite dynamic.  It starts with a self generating ambient sound from Arturia's Pigments 2.  It then goes into a chill kind of jam with Taurus Pedals providing the low bass drone, the Korg Kronos providing the the electric piano sound and I played the Novation Summit for the lead.  This lead was improvised in one take.  It then goes back to full ambient where it fades from the Pigments self generating patch into a different self generating patch on the Hydrasynth.  It then kicks it up a notch with a nice long synth solo on the Moog Subsequent 37.  It ends with the Hydrasynth fading back into the Pigments patch.

Huge credit goes to Red Means Recording whose tutorial for creating self generating patches inspired this tune.  The Hydrasynth patch is based on his tutorial.
