This is a track I finished this week.  It's part of work in progress in a new venture for me.  Like one of my previous tracks, "Lopan Lopan", the lyrics for this song are from a poem entitled "At Sea" by Aleister Crowley.

The Nightporter is one of my most favorite tracks from the legendary band Japan, which is the collective work of Richard Barbieri, David Sylvian, Steve Jansen, and Mick Karn.

This is a cover of that track, and while I've stuck to the original arrangement, I've somewhat stylized it radically different and in a fun, but respectful way.  These four individuals from Japan (and Rain Tree Crow), were very inspiring to me as I grew in my own path towards musicianship and artistry.

This is also for an old friend of mine, Jeff Peterson, who used to play the Nightporter with me on his parents upright piano when we were in our youth.

THE NIGHTPORTER Vir Unis Sketch Mix

Had my first live performance with my son Henry yesterday.  Afterwards I noticed a huge double rainbow in the sky, and then had a brief conversation with someone about imagining the world without religion, without division, without terrorism, without violence, without malice, without greed, etc. etc.  And only love.  Then I thought of this song and felt like covering it, for better or for worse.

This music is a collaboration that I've been looking to do for awhile. It combines esoteric drone instruments/vocal (shruti box, himalayan singing bowls, and kargyraa throat singing) with ambient guitar composition. There will be a full length album and live performances scheduled very soon.
