I-95
When you walk out, but don’t totally want to go. The structure of this one is pretty complete, but the performance has some holes especially the change over from the first section into the second. Some Juno in the pads various soft-synths here and there. It starts off at its most dissonant and resolves from there.
Someone Else’s Car Some of the best times to be had are in cars. Especially growing up in the woods where I did, a movie date was a 30 minute trip each way, and the back and forth, and the traveling I did for girls when I was young, the…
Long Face
I don’t know why, but this is one of my favorite of my slow songs. It has simplicity and complexity in the harmony, and achieves what I wanted to in the lyrics.
