Name: (Staying In) Not Because We’re Told To But Because We Want To by RtB
Duration: 4 min 48 s
Description: I recall someone saying that if you’ve got more than five things going on in a composition, that’s too many...So I spent ages looking for some sort of lead synth for this, only to find that it was indeed too much. Sometimes less is more, and not enough is about right. I think this is about right.

Not even a kilo of accapulco gold would convince me i want to stay in, after this lockdown. This music might help though. Well done wal.

Recorded in Coverdale when it was steadily raining, though the pic is of the Aysgarth Falls just before it absolutely hammered down. Two instances of Fab Filter’s ‘Timeless’ delay here, subtly on the Dreadbox Typhon’s bass sequence, big on the rather loose EP arpeggio, itself played by Ioniarics. Moral of the story? Always take an iPad and a synth when you go on holiday…

The Knocks II

Strange. Written in 2005 in my old studio in preston lancs.

THERES NO LIMIT

We’re gonna have a good time

I recall someone saying that if you’ve got more than five things going on in a composition, that’s too many...So I spent ages looking for some sort of lead synth for this, only to find that it was indeed too much. Sometimes less is more, and not enough is about right. I think this is about right.

Rory the Border Studios is located in the heart of rural Suffolk, UK, and produces hand-made guitars under the RtB brand, as well as a growing and diverse collection of (hopefully) original music. I had been uploading this to SC under the name Brownfield, but that was confusing an awful lot of people (three separate names?), so the artiste name is now simply the short form of the studio name, and also aligns with the YouTube channel name- to which I have recently started uploading again- ‘Wal RtB Studios’. 

Please note that any guitar that you hear on any of these tracks was made, on the premises, by me. Not that I’m showing off or anything...
