I noticed that I had fallen slightly behind on podcast episodes, so I decided that there was no better time to catch up with a 9th episode in the 9th month sometime around the Autumnal Equinox and my own birthday.
I’ve been working a particular tune to death recently with the aim of submitting it for consideration for a compilation. I started layering in more stuff, trying to bend it away from where it had begun. More melodic. More atmospheric. Less abstract. More rigid. The things I tried as I pushed it into different spaces was showing no immediate end, and I was getting tired.
I then took all of the rhythms away, then took that and granulized and stretchified it. Now we’re here, and you have an episode of the podcast to listen to. I’ll probably end up submitting the original version of the tune, which was already earmarked for my next release anyway.
