The fourteenth volume in the ever-expanding Twilight Sessions series.
The music on this album was improvised and recorded live during December 2014 at my home studio MCos.
Like previous albums, each piece starts as a blank canvas. I press record, play a few notes into a long, slowly decaying loop and see where the music takes me. This time, however, before each performance, I added one or two new sounds to the bank of synths, pianos and sounds I have to play with, so I learn what I can do with these new sounds as I go.
This album also features my first use of 8 string guitar played with the ebow. 8 strings, obviously, means more notes to play with, but my playing style is quite different. It might not be immediately apparent to the listener, but it is inspiring for me.
I really enjoyed making this album. I won't leave it another six months until the next album - I promise!
