infinite longings

At the movies - is my way out. Sitting alone in company watching earth from above.

It feels like diving into a parallel existence, waiting for the countdown to begin, prepairing for liftoff.

Then, finally, the lights go out..

Nice to be in orbit

**Disquiet Junto Project 0680: Reverse Resolution**  
The Assignment: Finish something (musical) you started last year.

This project has just one step: finish something you started last year, likely a piece of music you left unfinished.

#### Background
It's been a long time since I played anything on keyboard. For the last six months, my electric piano has been sitting up vertically against the studio wall, covered with a sheet and pretty much neglected. During my staycation (almost at an end now) I'd come into the studio, and just before I decloaked the keyboard, I'd get distracted or discouraged somehow.

I thought about the keyboard in relation to this week's assignment and recalled that I had a chord progression that I'd been meaning to do something with. So that's where this started.
#### Studio approach

The chord progression itself is very simple and revolves around a Bb Major 7th in second inversion (F-A-Bb-D) which occasionally resolves to a Dm7 and/or G7. This forms the scaffolding for the track, with degrees of improvisation after resolving to the Dm7.

I found a bass melody which could lead into these chords and played these on an electric (Rhodes-like) piano patch, with the chords played on the piano patch. Beneath this was a spare 3/4 click, which once the piano parts were in place, I used an ML-generated drum pattern with tweaked parameters.

An electric guitar largely compliments the piano chords and steadily opens up a bit, whilst a myriad of synth patches are introduced to provide a bit of atmosphere. Lastly, I included a field recording as a backdrop. This was a recording from new year's day in a national park on the Fleurieu Peninsula.

I guess I could sum up the mood of this track as 'wistfully pensive', much like my general outlook for this year.

For Emilia

“Unicorn Blessing Light” is a healing cosmic ambient–lofi track inspired by the gentle protection of a mystical unicorn. Warm pads, soft piano, subtle 528Hz and 963Hz tones and glittering chimes create a pure, sacred atmosphere. This music is perfect for wish manifestation, affirmations, meditation, energy cleansing, bedtime listening and looping in the background while you receive the unicorn’s blessing and align with your highest self.
