SOUNDS & SUBSTANCE

My first monthly track for 2021 is a new piece called “in the shadow.” The lengthening shadows of winter inspired this slowly breathing study of darker spaces. I frequently move ideas between piano and guitar, and in this case the guitar made some choices for me and it decided to open the piece into a slow, modal exploration. It’s free and on Bandcamp now.

The recent loss of ambient pioneer Harold Budd really hit me, and this track is dedicated to his memory.
